It's so bad that places have been going all out on obits for John Zderko, an actor who doesn't have a Wikipedia entry and whose biggest role appears to have been a one-off appearance in an episode of Criminal Minds 10 years ago. Not as many column inches as Fern Britton's cat, though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,601 Posted May 26, 2022 OK, so I moan about the lack of notable deaths and the universe responds by killing the star of my favourite film. Message received. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Message received. An odd thing to complain about I must say. In one day an ancient Italian PM, HOF Yes Drummer, HOF Depeche Mode keyboardist, and of course Ray Liotta... Maybe one should appreciate the peace instead of asking for chaos? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MortalCaso 1,640 Posted June 26, 2022 A death was just added for the 25th. A red wiki, but a death nonetheless. A bit surreal how long that lasted. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 11,037 Posted June 27, 2022 It's five deaths for the 25th right now, so still a record low. However, the past three days have been relatively deathless, maybe the usual Wiki editors were out for the weekend or something. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Summer in Transylvania 2,205 Posted July 7, 2022 One redlink on Wikipedia as of yet. Even that I've only just seen. Edit: Of course there is a notable death now. Of course. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 11,037 Posted September 5, 2022 Here we are again. Seems like Mr./Mrs. Death exhausted themselves with our recent big names. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,601 Posted September 6, 2022 With it all set and done, only two deaths for yesterday on Wikipedia. However, they were Moon Landrieu, who got a QO, and Lars Vogt, who was covered extensively and I would assume gets a Times/Guardian QO (maybe even a Last Word?) within a few weeks. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,601 Posted September 6, 2022 Swiss democratic socialist author Mariella Mehr and 1950s New Zealand badminton player Jeff Robson have ruined that potential perfect score for QOs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clarence 58 Posted December 27, 2022 December 2022 is a quiet month for celebrity deaths. I expected, bunch of celebrities/popular people will probably die within the first quarter of 2023. Maybe, January 2023 will be like January 2016. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
