List of unusual deaths

Hi there! You've made a couple of edits to this list, and I've undone them, so I thought I should drop you a line to clarify. After a lot of discussion (we're talking years of discussion here), it was agreed that the clear policy based consensus is to keep this list only to those deaths for whom there are reliable sources (as noted by one person, these need to be high quality sources, not tabloid journals who regularly fling around these words for fun) that the death is in someway exceptional. All other entries (those for whom someone might say "Come on, this is obviously strange") should be removed. I'm glad that you'd like to contribute, so please, when adding a death check to make sure the source actually calls it unusual - synonyms, like weird, strange, odd, or freak accident work too, and we've had entries supported by things like "In my X years as coroner, I've never seen this". It's a pretty loose guideline, but it's still a guideline, so please check your sources when posting a new death. NekoKatsun (nyaa) 20:15, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
