Interesting area of discussion[edit]

Village Pump Policy area has material of direct relevance to this project and sub project:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Marie_Sophie_Hingst#Describing_suicide
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)#RFC:_Change_wording_in_MOS:SUICIDE_to_better_reflect_the_supermajority_consensus_in_the_RFC_that_added_it

although connected to the Medicine area -

Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Medicine-related_articles&action=edit&section=7
Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)/Archive 164#RFC: "Committed suicide" language
Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)&oldid=1166865811#how_should_we_change_the_wording?

for page lurkers here, or editors previously in conversation here - worth noting... JarrahTree 12:59, 24 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Requested move of Dīs Pater[edit]

There is a proposal at Talk:Dīs Pater#Requested move 30 July 2023 to move an article indicated to be of interest to this project, Dīs Pater to Dis Pater. NebY (talk) 17:16, 30 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Per a recent discussion at User talk:Yngvadottir/Archive 12#Death-positive movement and the problem of optimal coverage that led me here: The article Death-positive movement was unilaterally merged (without mention here) into The Order of the Good Death in 2018, which seems a suboptimal place for us to cover it. We very rarely mention movements in articles for organizations rather than the other way around, and it seems a stand-alone article can be written here. I discovered this situation when writing Dark Archives, which links the former frequently and the latter occasionally -- as it stands, they currently direct to the same article. If any watchers of this talk have thoughts on the matter or an interest in reworking the articles, I'd appreciate anything. Vaticidalprophet 01:06, 8 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
