Buck-Tick
The band can say whatever they want, it doesn't negate reality. In the English language, dead people are written about in the past tense and can not "currently" be doing anything. Per MOS:BLPTENSE: "Biographies of living persons should generally be written in the present tense, and biographies of deceased persons in the past tense. When making the change upon the death of a subject, the entire article should be reviewed for consistency." If you wanted to re-add something to the "35th anniversary and Sakurai's death" section about how they said "BUCK-TICK will always be five", then that is acceptable. But Sakurai must remain in the "past/former" members section. Xfansd (talk) 14:24, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

- What you're linking and quoting doesn't say the dead can't be included in things that living people are doing. You're forcing your views on others. Weiqwbo (talk) 14:31, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- Do you not understand the difference between present tense and past tense? It says to write articles about dead people in past tense. The word "current" is present tense, and the word "former" is past tense. By simply putting a dead person in current members, you are not following the MOS. Xfansd (talk) 15:25, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- Where Sakurai is mentioned in the article, the appropriate tense is always used. Regarding the list of members, he never left, he was never removed. The dead are always credited and very often still included in things they participated in while alive. "Current member" does not carry a connotation of "alive." If you're so inclined to note the fact Sakurai is dead in the members list, a cross can be added. The Latin/Christian cross character (✝) is often used on the internet to denote someone is deceased.
