User talk:Canadian Paul/Nonagenarians

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have a personal list of 1918 nonagenaries throughout the year(I add to it as the year goes on), so I'll help with the list, specifically 1918. --RandomOrca2 (talk) 21:35, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, that'd be awesome... I like the additions thus far! To be honest, I'm not sure if this list serves any practical purpose (other than as a potential pool for the List of centenarians). My main goal was to clean up my watchlist (I got rid of like, 70 pages), but any help that you're willing to offer would be muchly appreciated! Cheers, CP 06:01, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Note to self: Saqr bin Mohammad al-Qassimi born 1918, exact date unknown. Cheers, CP 06:23, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Mary Wilson, Baroness Wilson of Rievaulx and Lucius D. Battle also fall under that category. --RandomOrca2 (talk) 21:27, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Battle was born on June 1, 1918 and died May 13, 2008, so he didn't quite make it to 90 years old.

Also Robert Maheu. --RandomOrca2 (talk) 21:11, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Huber Matos as well. --RandomOrca2 (talk) 00:54, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Matos was born November 26. Cheers, CP 16:53, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Cee Pee Johnson and Henri Young, whose living status is unknown. Cheers, CP 19:50, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Yet another, Harry V. Jaffa. --RandomOrca2 (talk) 22:40, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Also, this page is worth keeping track of for new names, specifically the Longest lived state leaders section.. --RandomOrca2 (talk) 00:54, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

On that vein, this page can be watched as well, not just for the new additions, but every now and then one of the red links goes blue (1917+) and can be added. Even more nonagenarian red links are listed on this page. The talk page is going to be a nice, centralized collection of resources eventually. Cheers, CP 17:05, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

I wonder if there's any point in keeping this list updated now that NNC has deleted around 600 of their names... Cheers, CP 22:30, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

I think it could still be updated, but only adding names that were not ones removed from NNC. --RandomOrca2 (talk) 00:21, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Looks like it might be coming back up... guess we'll just have to wait and see. For now, I think your plan is good, insofar as one remembers who was on there! Cheers, CP 16:50, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
