cause of death[edit]

According to http://www.sfgate.com/crime/article/Activist-Richard-Aoki-named-as-informant-3800133.php#page-2 he shot himself ; the WP page here says 'complications from dialysis.' (and references a no-longer-available article.). Someone want to figure this out? 169.229.195.137 (talk) 20:23, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

informant allegation[edit]

While this is not a BLP, it is still a WP:BIO, and as such we should be careful with including information with little verification in reliable sources for biographies. I have moved the allegations out of the lede, and named them as allegations - the information lacks wide reliable sourcing to be presented as non-controvertible fact.--Cerejota (talk) 21:07, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Good decision, IMO. One report comes out and the media jump all over this story for 24 hours. Then they'll forget about the guy until something sets them off in 2017. We can wait to review the evidence carefully. In the meantime, the more important task is filling in other factual details about the article. If we think about the readership coming here, they're going to be folks who just read the news story and want to know the background—what encyclopedic information was already available? Pace, groupuscule (talk) 05:38, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
A year and a half later, things have calmed down, so let's do it right. I don't think the weasel word "possible" is appropriate for the informant heading. There is no significant doubt that the man was an informant now. I also question the use of Fred Ho as a source. He is a musician, not an historian or journalist.Pokey5945 (talk) 00:47, 30 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
