[edit] Temepara George

I see you placed Temepara George in Category:1996 deaths, but there is no indication in the article that she has died and every reason to believe that she is alive. Was this a copy and paste slip, or do you know something about this person that requires the article to be updated?-gadfium 23:04, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Damn. sorry, that is a mistake. AWB has an option where it guesses birth and death categories, if you instruct it to do so. It is somewhat overzealous though and in this case it confused the 1996 date for a death. I normally pick these up, but must have missed this one. Cheers, Onco_p53 00:30, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

That's a pretty serious bug. I recall Peter B saying to me once that he had learned of the death of a colleague through Wikipedia; it would be devastating to get this wrong.-gadfium 01:33, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

It is not the best, but it is not an automatic setting and really it is all my fault, I should have checked more carefully. I do find AWB useful for finding these new articles though, I'll do another scan in a few weeks or so. Onco_p53 01:58, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
