Restoral of information

I've recently restored a ton of information that was removed without discussion. I will start sourcing this info within the next 24 hours.--Rockfang (talk) 09:59, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

ANd i've removed most of the unsourced and unverifiable assertions. once you've sourced things (with [[reliable sources) you can add them back in, one a time. Good luck.Bali ultimate (talk) 13:38, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think it would be easier for me to source the info if it is actually in the article. Since none of the info appears to be contentious, would you revert me again if I restored it with one edit, then with multiple edits add sources?--Rockfang (talk) 20:44, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've sourced some of the info. I will continue working on this article sometime after the Super Bowl is done.--Rockfang (talk) 22:31, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Date of Death

The following articles seem to contradict, and the German Wikipedia even has another date of death. Please check and correct:

-- Lieven (talk) 12:49, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently, word didn't get out for a week or so, and the media assumed they'd heard of it immediately and used that as a basis for the incorrect date. The information about the 25th February date comes from Terry Erdmann. https://www.facebook.com/terry.j.erdmann/posts/800252256678784?comment_id=800399263330750&offset=0&total_comments=3&notif_t=share_reply 110.32.255.233 (talk) 00:34, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That links seems to be not available any more. Wikipedia needs more reliable sources. -- Lieven (talk) 08:19, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Here's the obit from the LA Times, also showing the Feb 25 date. According to Paula Block, the Jacksonville Police Department has "confirmed that it was Feb 25--and they got that directly from the family. They have provided the correct date to the L.A. Times and whoever calls for comment." http://www.latimes.com/local/obituaries/la-me-harve-bennett-20150308-story.html 110.32.255.233 (talk) 22:32, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

For the record: I received a confirmation from Terry Erdmann; he wrote: _"The newspaper confirmed the date with the police department in our town; the police confirmed it with Harve's family who were there at the time he died. February 25._ [...] See: Famed 'Star Trek' producer Harve Bennett dies in Medford Mar. 6, 2015" -- Lieven (talk) 07:58, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Filmography

It seems odd having just a filmography of his acting roles, when his writing and directing are more significant. -- Beardo (talk) 06:07, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
