Piskor Dead? (TBA) edit
Piskor is supposed dead by suicide on Apr 1; Family has not put out a statement. Possibly an april fool's joke made in bad taste? GeminiJesterApogee (talk) 20:53, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
- He posted a suicide note this morning and a few people are talking about him in the past tense as of a few minutes ago, but nothing is officially confirmed yet 173.226.56.14 (talk) 21:06, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
- It seems to be true. https://twitter.com/CTropes/status/1774891424364040250 Deadpool2099x2 (talk) 21:29, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

Ed Piskor has been confirmed dead due to suicide following allegations of sexual misconduct. He is confirmed by Ethan Van Sciver that he also released a suicide note naming the people he blames for his suicide. Chris from Comic Tropes confirmed the death through a message from Piskor's family. Robinsnest245 (talk) 21:08, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

Ed Piskor left a suicide note posted to his Facebook account on April 1st, 2024 at 8:01 AM EST with the caption "I’m helpless against a mob of this magnitude. Please share my side of things. Sayonara." the link to the note is: [1] Robinsnest245 (talk) 21:20, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
- That is not a specific edit request of what you wish to see added where, and it is likely best for us to wait until there are reliable sources to use on the whole matter. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 21:26, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
He's dead. edit
It was confirmed by his sister on Faceboo [1]https://www.facebook.com/justine.piskor/posts/10224783013830556k. 173.54.137.174 (talk) 21:44, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
BioGeek source edit
So I was watching the Hip Hop Family Tree article when I learned of his suicide through someone posting a BioGeek reference without any justification.[1] I reverted it but the source is worth checking out; there doesn't seem to be any discussion of BioGeek on Wikipedia yet regarding its reliability, so is anyone willing go over this? Rest in peace for Piskor, by the way. Carlinal (talk) 00:47, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

- No sign of any editorial staff, and some of the writing carries the scent of AI ("41 was the age that he was.") No visible reason to treat this as a reliable source. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 04:13, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
- And looking at the contributor who added that, he has made two edits on Wikipedia, both of which were adding BioGeeK stories as references, both of which included writers names that are not to be found on the article. So, the possibility of WP:REFSPAM should be considered. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 04:19, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, same source for two people that recently died. Little suspicious, honestly. Carlinal (talk) 04:34, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
- My suspicions are confirmed: Coindecimal3232's only edits are just that, BioGeek articles on deaths with no appropriate spot. They seem to be a promotional account. Could someone file an appropriate response or something? Carlinal (talk) 06:10, 3 April 2024 (UTC)

change "Molly Dwyer" to just "cartoonist". 155.247.134.187 (talk) 17:09, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
- The name is public information with multiple cited sources. NJZombie (talk) 17:26, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
- I agree, per WP:BLP and WP:ISNOT I don't think it's appropriate to name her in the article. She is not otherwise notable so it doesn't really add anything. Is there a good reason to keep it? Thesixthstaff (talk) 10:42, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit semi-protected}} template. PianoDan (talk) 22:35, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
2006 interviews edit
Wanted to ask about the reliability of two interviews from 2006 that were on the external links section for a long while, before a justly removal. Any value in Ninth Art and Comics Nexus? Carlinal (talk) 20:18, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
