Have you told YoungWillz? http://www.deathlist.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=3839&p=235042

Yep, the thread has had a good run...

I'd rather someone predicted the 11th death of 2015 outright, I wouldn't want it to be a Thai.

Interestingly, his death means that the only surviving credited cast member from the 1957 version of A Farewell To Arms is German actress Eva Kotthaus.

30 years ago, Masako Natsume joined the 27 Club. Best known as Tripitaka from the series Monkey.

Fear not, the Daily Mail have given the required UK Obit for Dickie Moore: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/usshowbiz/article-3230008/Legendary-former-child-actor-Dickie-Moore-husband-famous-actress-Jane-Powell-dead-89.html There will probably be "moore", given the fame of his wife.

Dickie Moore has died at 89, a couple of days before his birthday. http://deadline.com/2015/09/dick-moore-dead-former-child-star-jane-powell-husband-1201520917/ Edit: A unique hit in the DDP when it hits the UK papers.

Hmm, as I recall the only place Stuart Wagstaff got a UK obit was the Daily Mail! After so long in the going, I thought things like this would have all been ironed out. I'm mainly for the status quo, under exception of the famous for being ill/famous for fundraising and being ill/famous for getting married to or being a member of a family of someone who is ill. Admittedly, I think it's 2 hits this year who have qualified to 1 which has been lost, so it's not a large proportion so far. The people who have had fame and celebrity or notoriety can or have to take it (this isn't the kindest forum at times!), people simply struck down by affliction who get a small amount of media attention in the great scheme of things aren't. If they are not worthy of a thread of their own in this forum (not that they have to have a thread of their own), they are not worthy of a place in the DDP. I'd probably dump the Daily Record as a source - not sure one hit has come from there this year. Edit: If the state targets a terrorist in a strike, does that count as a state execution? Tuppence spent.

Gave me hope I had my first hit. They've apologised on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Variety/status/641377989440081920
