Do other editors have an opinion about the inclusion of the photo of Schlesinger? Barrymanitoba has removed it a number of times, but has provided neither an edit summary nor any responses to messages left on his Talk page. I am therefore unsure what his intentions are. My opinion about the image is that it is not great, but that it is better to have even this one rather than none at all. Others' thought...? Thanks, -- Paul Erik 16:59, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Variety reports that Schlesinger died due to complications from a Covid-19 infection on 1st April 2020. (1) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shirtavius ( talk • contribs) 22:47, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
Death data edits were rejected. Death date is still incorrect. He died on 3/31/2020. Info based on Durchess County COVID-19 report at https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/NYDUTCHESS/bulletins/2843c16 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.248.44.185 ( talk) 12:38, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
He died on the Wednesday morning of April 1, 2020. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.122.216.158 ( talk) 20:12, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
@ Nikkimaria: Not sure what you mean by "no evidence of that" but if it's no evidence his death contributed to his notability, for starters a google search of his name turns up nothing but sources talking about his death one way or another and they all specifically mention he died of COVID-19. Additionally, there's the page views. Before his death he was only averaging about 400/500 page views a day. This month alone he's averaging over 1,000. I also feel like the "doc" you keep referring to is so loosely followed. You can't tell me Michael Jackson or Whitney Houston, two extremely successful musicians, that their deaths legitimately contributed to their notability but a member of a band that was a one hit wonder that didn't do very much of anything outside of being a member of Fountains of Wayne didn't have his death contribute to his notability. Even for me personally I had never heard his name prior to his death. Additionally, contrary to what you seem to believe, it is ok to go against policy from time-to-time ( WP:IGNORE). And finally, the parameter descriptions aren't even technically a policy, they're somewhere between a policy and recommendation for when to use each parameter.--Rockchalk 7 17 00:31, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
Rockchalk717 I agree with you that Adam Schlesinger's case of death is relevant. The template Doc even says to include when the death is signifigant for the subject's notability. Which in this case it is since it was an early death from a notable person. You may also want to look at the Meat Loaf page and Nikkimaria's editing history. Seems he like to remove any cause of death if it says COVID and edit in bad faith trying to support it when other editors will not agree. ContentEditman ( talk) 12:23, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
@ Nikkimaria: I'm not even going to read that. You keep talking about the ONUS is on me, we've got two editors on this talkpage that has stated it's notable enough for inclusion. You haven't made a solid argument for exclusion except referring to the template doc. When me and the editor have reverted your removal you keep say "per talk". Well, what exactly on here? You being unnecessarily rigid on policy? You not having a legitimate argument against his death not contributing to his notability? You saying consensus isn't a vote as an argument for getting your way but failing to realize that at the same time that hardly means a single objector can be justification for exclusion of content? Continue to push exclusion when it's obvious to everyone else the consensus is inclusion I will seek alternate sources of resolution. I'll give you a pass for the reversion last night, but I promise you I will seek the alternate resolution.--Rockchalk 7 17 17:33, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
I agree with Rockchalk717. This is notable and a significance for subject's notability. ContentEditman ( talk) 20:51, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
