  • Combine all lists
  • Sort from earliest to latest
  • Add "Nationality" column
  • Make "Age", "Nationality", and "Name" columns sortable


  • Add {{hiddenkey}} to the "Cause of death" column so I can make that sortable. Like so:

  • Drowning/drowned = {{hiddenkey|drowned}}
  • Brain hemorrhage = {{hiddenkey|hemorrhage in the brain}}
  • Suicide = {{hiddenkey|suicide}}
  • Murder = {{hiddenkey|homocide}}
  • Suicide or murder = {{hiddenkey|Unknown}}
  • Supposedly whatever = {{hiddenkey|Unknown}}
  • World War I casualty = {{hiddenkey|World War I}}
  • World War II casualty = {{hiddenkey|World War II}}
  • Coma = {{hiddenkey|coma}}
  • Heart attack = {{hiddenkey|heart attack}}
  • Drug overdose = {{hiddenkey|drug overdose}}
  • On-ice whatever = {{hiddenkey|on-ice incident}}
  • Broken neck = {{hiddenkey|broken neck}}


Add more as we go along.

  • The only problem with it is the fact that some of them aren't decided...hmm
