People Who Are Dead According To Wikipedia...

Recommended Posts

Addold Mossin (wiki), Estonian neopaganist, WWII veteran and politician activist, supposedly died on 16 March, aged 104.

The IP address is Swedish so could well be legit.

If true this will end a long infatuation of @arghton's, who has mentioned this obscure man no less than 10 times on DeathList Forums!

Interesting to see his middle name was Adolf. Can't for the life of me think why he kept that bit quiet up until now.

Judith Hemmendinger (wiki) German-born Israeli researcher and author, supposedly died 24 March, aged 100.

Specialised in child survivors of the Holocaust and awarded Frances Legion of Honour in 2003.

A pick on one or two pools on here if I'm not mistaken.

Norman Scarth
Political activist, blogger and decorated WWII vet.
Turning 96.

British perennial political candidate, WWII vet, blogger, and all round pain in the ass Norman Scarth (wiki) supposedly dead at 98.

Disappointed to see he wasn't picked in the DDP. Really curious to see if he gets a QO. My hunch is he will.

Someone keeps editing the Wiki page of French author Christian Coffinet (wiki) to say he died, only giving "2023" but no specific date, so he would have been 99 or 100.

Coffinet is one of these people I assumed died off radar years ago. Rather oddly, he seems to have had a guest voice role in "The Simpsons".


Mystery solved. Christian Coffinet in fact died in 2011 aged 87, as confirmed by BnF here.
