Reporting deaths
Hello, I'm CAWylie. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Ian Oliver, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.  Wylie pedia  @ 14:53, 9 July 2022 (UTC)


 * The 'reliable source' is that his widow Elsie Oliver, his son (Sir Craig Oliver), and his daughter (Stephanie Heasman) have all separately informed me that my Uncle, Ian Thomas Oliver, died at five minutes after midnight on 8th July 2022.
 * They ought to know as they are arranging his funeral this afternoon. AgentSauvage (talk) 15:25, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Shall I perhaps visit my Uncle in the funeral parlour and tell him that Wikipedia says he isn't actually dead because it hasn't been reported in the newspaper yet? I am sure that will have a great effect. Perhaps I shall tell both my parents that they aren't actually dead because they didn't have obituaries in the national press (oh, they must be annoyed that we cremated them then!)
 * Perhaps you could change the entry to 'it is reported by Elsie Oliver that her husband died at just after midnight on 8th July 2022'. Would that perhaps be acceptable to your rules? AgentSauvage (talk) 21:05, 9 July 2022 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry for your loss, but, until Ian's obituary is published — this week, next week, or next year, original research from family or friends cannot be added to biographies.  Wylie pedia  @ 22:37, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
