Please do not change the beginning section of the article Robin Williams to something that does not reflect consensus, all edits made to Wikipedia must reflect consenus, and since committed suicide reflects consensus and your edit does not, please do not change this, for extra help see Wikipedia's help page, Thanks and happy editing.

Please understand that words hurt and language matters.

Please understand: the term "committed suicide" is insensitive and contributes to the stigma that survivors of suicide loss face every day. I lost my own father to suicide. I have learned that his death was the fatal outcome of undiagnosed and severe depression. He did not "commit" a crime. It pains me and it pains other survivors of suicide loss when the term "committed suicide" is used. Please allow me to change it. Thank you for understanding that words matter.

"Consensus" isn't necessarily correct

This is another good article that conveys what many of we survivors of suicide loss feel: http://18miles.wordpress.com/2010/05/20/please-stop-saying-committed-suicide/
