In Real-Life, during a Heart-Transplantation, when a healthy person receives a healthy heart from a Healthy Person, does that 2nd Person have to be Alive or Dead?(50.173.3.162 (talk) 07:16, 1 November 2014 (UTC)).[reply]

You really need to ask this on the Science Desk, however the donor has to be dead first, otherwise you'd be killing one person to save another, which is unethical. See our Heart transplant article for the details. Alansplodge (talk) 08:47, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I think I'd go for "usually unethical" - see Jodie and Mary, Richard Parker, etc. Tevildo (talk) 10:44, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Actually until recently they had to be brain dead but still beating. Transplanting a "dead" heart was just recently reported.[1] Rmhermen (talk) 17:10, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wait a minute, if the donor has to be dead first, then what's the appropriate cause of death for the Heart-Transplantation to be a Success? If the donor's Heart gets Pierced or Shot, then will the Heart still be Useful for Heart-Transplantation?(50.173.3.162 (talk) 17:51, 1 November 2014 (UTC)).[reply]

how do you add music genre "gutt rock" description changing any song into rock genre from jingle bells to phantom of the opera. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jacqui osz (talk • contribs) 11:13, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not quite sure what you're asking. If you want to create an article, it's suggested you do it within a user subpage (like this). But before you get started, I heartily encourage you to read this guide to writing your first article and, since the term "Gutt Rock" doesn't seem to be widely understood, you should also read this. In short, Wikipedia is not the place for articles based on stuff you made up. Matt Deres (talk) 12:55, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
