Here is the death notice for the Tulio Altamura who died on 6 June 2005. It was added to his Wikipedia years ago with no evidence of it being the actor – we debated it at the time, and decided it likely wasn't him. In fact, the obituary says "Altamura Tullio Rome, June 7, 2005 On June 6, 2005, Tullio Altamura passed away Journalist His wife Rossana, his sons Gianni and Guido, and his brother Roberto announced his passing. The burial will take place on June 7, 2005 at the Verano cemetery" Why does the obituary not state actor? Instead it says journalist. There is no evidence anywhere that he was also a journalist. He retired from acting aged 65 (standard retirement age). To then become a journalist at 65 is virtually unheard of. I do not think this is the same man. In any case, I can't update the Wiki pages for any of the names where you've stated SWDB as the source. It was recently agreed on the talk page for Deaths in 2024 that it isn't reliable because it's essentially just another Wiki. They seem to accept any tips that people send them without questioning.

Gisooo 3,378 Posted November 15 The answer was from the film researcher. That's what he said. Everyone added that he died in 2005, the same for the historian. One thing is known: he's dead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If anyone has any names they’d like me to check, please write them here or DM them to me. Please note that looking at the index in person uses a very old fashioned machine, not a computer, so it’s time consuming. As such, I’d prefer it if ppl only gave me maximum 3 names each.

LWCZ 192 Posted November 23 Looks like Billy Christ (William Vasil Christ), the "last man standing" of The Gaylords (who replaced Ronald L. Fredianelli when Fredianelli joined the army in the 1950s), passed away only four months after Don Rea (the last original member of the group) back in 2017.
