Godtfred Holmvang

Hi,

Could you please provide a citation for the fact that he is deceased? Per Wikipedia's policies on biographies of living people, uncited material on the pages of living (or possibly living) people must be removed so, without it, I cannot allow notice of his death to remain on the page.

Dear Canadian Paul, I hope this reaches you. I am somewhat computer illiterate. I am Godtfred's son-in-law so i know whan he died. I am unsure how to provide a citation. I don't believe there was a death notice in the newspaper. Please advise. Sincerely, Jamie Renwick Vancouver, Canada

Hi. Okay... if there was no printed obituary, then it will get a little tricky. There might be a way to help you, but I don't know much about it, so I will grab the attention of someone who knows. Cheers, CP 15:56, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I have been told that to ask you to find some sort of proof that he is deceased and e-mail to OTRS. If you need any help with this, please let me know. The only reason that this is such a big deal is that we take our policies on living people very seriously. If there were untrue material on your father-in-law, we know you'd want it removed immediately. For the same reason, we must make absolutely certain that anything printed in that biography is true and verifiable, because we know that these biographies can have real and potentially serious effects on actual individuals.

Dear CP, Thankyou for your patience. I could scan Godtfred Holmvang's death certificate. Could you provide me with an exact email address to direct this information and how it should be titled. Thank you again. Jamie

Hi. You should e-mail the scan to info-en-q [at] wikimedia.com. Please let me know when you do, so that the individual who I have been communicating with can search for it and find it quickly. The title should include "Godtfred Holmvang" so they will know what to search for. Cheers, CP 21:12, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, there was a slight error. Could you send it to info-en-q [at] wikimedia.org instead? Sorry for the trouble. Cheers, CP 20:27, 27 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dear CP, Death cert resent per request. Jamie

We got it, thanks! I'm amending the page as we speak... Cheers, CP 02:24, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
