Entries for each day are listed <u>alphabetically</u> by surname. A typical entry lists information in the following sequence: *Name, age, country of citizenship and reason for notability, established cause of death, reference (and language of reference, if not English). <!-- =============Please read before adding a name to this list============= Only those meeting the [[Wikipedia:Notability (people)|Wikipedia notability]] guidelines are listed, with a reference to a [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable source]]. If there is not already a Wikipedia article for the person, please reconsider if the person is actually notable, or consider writing one yourself. NOTE: Causes of death such as "old age" and "natural causes" should not be cited unless stated in the reference. The intent of these pages is to report notable deaths. Tragic deaths, while unfortunate, do not necessarily make the deceased "notable". If you report the death of someone who does not already have a Wikipedia article, please consider starting one, provided the person is notable, with other third-party sources than the obituary. Alphabetical order please. Please avoid [[WP:OVERLINK]]ing. Therefore, do not wikilink nationalities, common occupations, or common causes of death, instead only adding "links that aid navigation and understanding". Thank you. =============Please read before adding a name to this list=============---> ==January 2012== <!-- Please note that, by consensus, expiring months are not collapsed until seven days of the new month have elapsed. --> ===1=== *[[Gary Ablett (English footballer)|Gary Ablett]], 46, English footballer ([[Liverpool F.C.|Liverpool]], [[Everton F.C.|Everton]], [[Birmingham City F.C.|Birmingham City]]), [[non-Hodgkin lymphoma]].
