He's Dead, Jim.

It was decided that the Bob article, and various other places in the CWCki, should refer to him as having died or as being dead - rather than pander around it by saying "passed away". Please refrain from undoing any edits which are contrary to this convention. Thanks --Anonymax 14:27, 19 September 2011 (PDT)

I refer you to this edit which prettymuch sums it up. You reverted an edit that had already been reverted before - and I personally agree that there's no point in using "passed away" when "died" works fine. We're a wiki, and you don't see sections entitled "Passing away" on articles about people who have died. As you thoughtfully entitled your talk page message to me - the use of "passing away" is indeed use of weasel words - which should be avoided on wikis. --Anonymax 21:09, 20 September 2011 (PDT)

We were discussing it on IRC at the time. Basically we decided to let it play for a few hours, to see if there was any logic or reasoning behind the "overwriting" of the photos. If it happens again, IRC is probably the best place to be. --Anonymax 07:16, 11 November 2011 (PST)
