Claims of death must be accompanied by a reliable source. The only things that I could find that reported her death were a press release of unknown provenance, and forum posts that copied the press release. If you can find a reliable source that reports it, you are welcome to add it to the article. ... discospinster talk 04:15, 24 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Edit Warring Warning

edit
 

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Franklin Reyes. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

  1. Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Rlendog (talk) 16:01, 24 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

You appear to be edit warring at Alexandra Cheron as well. Please note as well that Wikipedia policy on biographies of living persons requires that information about living persons must be attributed to a reliable source, and notes that "Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced—whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable—should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion."

  Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion pages, as you did with Franklin Reyes. Doing so won't stop the discussion from taking place. You are, however, welcome to comment about the proposed deletion on the appropriate page. Thank you. —Bagumba (talk) 17:10, 24 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
