Hello, I'm EnIRtpf09b. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Derek Miller (field hockey), but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! EnIRtpf09b^{chat with me} 12:01, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

Hi thank you. I think I have asked a question on a type of forum about this (I'm new and confused). I am trying to add my dad's death and references to newspaper articles about him from 1963 and 1964 but references to the newspapers, which include the DT and the Times (so are very well known in England as they are national broadsheets) do not work. Even a reference to the England & Wales death index did not work for his death and you cannot get more official than that (or his DT obit). I am a bit stuck really. I do find it odd that wikipedia still says he is alive, when he died 20 years ago. No worries. Jim Millgent (talk) 12:17, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
