I hope that anyone who has started a person thread has remembered to add them to the list here.

Thanks @Pop Declogs. I've updated his English Wikipedia page.

Though this should have gone in the Off the Radar or DACH List threads.

Not sure if this is the right thread to ask this, but what happened to the Willie Nelson thread? It doesn't show at 2023 names sub-forum anymore, and when trying to access the thread from here or the link on the front page, it says the item cannot be located.

Looks like it was mistakenly deleted when he had his birthday. Thread now restored.

John Ashton (born 1948) Beverly Hills Cop

I actually made it very clear in the thread subtitle that this wasn’t the Beverly Hills Cop actor but the Psychedelic Furs guitarist so not sure why you noted it down as such

At least you didn’t try curling out threads for each one this time. Thank heavens for small mercies.

Should be updated soon, with new threads added, and new deaths marked, and in some cases both. ;) :P lol

I wonder if we need a dance/electronic music DJ/Producer thread?  Techno pioneers make uneasy bedfellows with Radio 2 stalwarts :huh:

Could Telegram boss Pavel Durov have a thread? After his recent arrest in France, he's now been charged and has been ordered not to leave the country awaiting trial. While he's only 39 with no obvious health problems, I wouldn't be surprised if someone has him in their sights in case he sings like a canary, similar to the widely held view about Epstein's death.

I’m thinking of opening a thread in extra curricular for all the articles about celebrity wills and estates. Good idea or not?

Should Kemi Badenoch have a thread as she is now the UK’s leader of the opposition and most of her predecessors have had threads despite like her normally being youngish and healthy.

Personally speaking, I’d say “No”. But it’s up to whatever member wants to create one.

Two wrongs don't make a right. Where does it end? Anyone who had any kind of fame ever has a dedicated thread because they might die?

Still, we could match up two things I detest in one go, every entry in the 'who managed a fuck and is having a baby' can have a thread for their latest addition from the start.

Last time I looked this was a site for deadpooling, and whilst I'm as likely to be dragged off topic as the next person (possibly even more so, I have the attention span of a gnat), I tend not to start these lunacies.

I agree with that. This is a despatch forum, not for hatches and matches.
