Date of death

Date of death seems premature. Can it be removed until confirmed. 46.247.8.130 (talk) 15:13, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Death confirmed by press conference circa 5:15PM BST. Can someone please add the recent death template? 58.160.129.238 (talk) 16:18, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Done by someone else. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:21, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Alleged Murderer's Alleged Shouts

Most (if not all) UK media outlets are reporting that the shooter is, according to witnesses, said to have yelled "Britain first" during his attack on Jo Cox, including right-leaning newspapers:

So why has this information been deleted from the article?Oulipal (talk) 16:38, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

TV News here interviews eye witness who says he never heard it:

Temporary chief constable of West Yorkshire police gave a press conference about an hour ago and said, "Clearly, as this inquiry is at an early stage and we have an individual under arrest, we are not in a position to discuss any motive at this time." (http://www.theguardian.com/politics/live/2016/jun/16/eu-referendum-live-osborne-brexit-budget-leave-tories) Seeing that there are conflicting reports, maybe there should at least be the qualification "reportedly"?

Speculation

This talkpage is not a forum for speculation about the circumstances surrounding her death. Wikipedia only publishes what reliable sources say- all speculation on this talkpage will be removed. Joseph2302 (talk) 17:18, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Death/assassination?

Would it be appropriate to rename the "death" section and title it "assassination"? Perhaps not enough is known to warrant the title change, or a new sub-section (under the "death" section). But I would appreciate some input on this.
