Sir John Riddell, 13th Baronet

Per WP:BLP please don't add a death date without a source. I've had a quick look on Google and can't see anything obvious. David Underdown (talk) 13:05, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I should have made it clear taht I didn't doubt your claim in particular, but there have unfortunately been numerous false claims made in the past, and it's generally felt that not reporting a death until there is good confirmation will be less distressing than reporting false claims.

Not a problem, I do understand. I had meant to link it in the first place. Regards, Scotchegg (talk) 13:32, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
