• Compromise to end red links.

There seems to be a need to delete all names from recent deaths which are not linked to any Wikipedia biography of that person who has died. These are called red links.There has been an discussion last year here.The last comment says what I think:

I think it's rather a good idea to have a list of red links for this article, simply so that it shows at a glance how many entries are still article-less after a given period of time, and can be deleted from the main list. Several of the red links in the boxes above have gone blue, so they were deemed notable enough to have articles written about them. Just because someone doesn't have an article written about them, it does not necessarily mean they are not notable. I think some of the comments made about the boxes above are rather negative and mealy-mouthed. Inappropriate use of a talk page? Wow... the guy was only trying to help.

1. List and number all those people who have died and do not yet have a biography in a template.I suggest numbering them and giving some space for authors to comment on why that particlar person needs a biographical article (maybe a symbol to how whether work is in progress ,rather than just waiting till a place-holding article has been created (called a stub on Wikipedia).
2. Delete all names of these people who have red-links on the respective Deaths in 2009 ,replacing these names if and where that particlar person does indeed get a blue link and therefore a biographical article in Wikipedia.
3. Revise the template after a given time to list all those people who have recently died and still have red-links, leaving out those people who have in the meantime been given articles.
4. Request articles be created by asking the person who wrote the name of the person who died to start such an article or go to Wikipedia:Requested articles/Biographies and make your request for each of those people you feel is notable enough to deserve a biography here.
5. Maybe at the end of each year all templates with lists of those people who died recently can be shown as a numbered list .
6. Here is my suggestion as to how such monthly templates could be placed as "to-do"-lists .I copied them from Talk:Deaths in 2008#Red links and I left out those names where in the meantime there is a blue-link to an article on that person.
