Removal of "Passengers and crew" section[edit]

Although there should not be any questions regarding the reliability of The Columbus Dispatch, relying on it as heavily as being done here for a highly disputed information, herein the statistics, is not sensible.

There are various primary sources which propose an estimate but refrain from making exact claims. And rightfully so. Because there cannot be any exact claim since the records were lost in the wreckage.

In the mentioned The Columbus Dispatch article itself, the author, in one of the starting paragraphs reflects uncertainity by writing "about 100" but later goes on to give the exact count without even mentioning about the credibility of the statistics.

It'll be misleading because peoples rate Wikipedia above other sources. So i propose to remove the section as a whole. I am willing to replace it with a section which mentions the various sources and their estimates.

Although i know this discussion will remain here intact and unseen for years to come but this was my duty.
