[edit]I created a list of the oldest living person in Denmark since 2008. For my informations I used http://perhag.mono.net/8806/Ældste and the Photo album of this site. I didn't gave informations for the time befor 2008 because the deathdays of some people are not given good enough on this siten for doing so. If anyone has the informations to add Magda Hedetofts Predecessors, he or she should do this.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.35.20.90 (talk) 13:39, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
Orphaned references in List of Danish supercentenarians
[edit]I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of List of Danish supercentenarians's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "Alive":
- From List of oldest people by year of birth: Living as of 11 November
- From List of Portuguese supercentenarians: living as of 11 November
- From National longevity recordholders: living as of 1 February 2010
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 14:26, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
Limbo section - Agnes Steenstrup
[edit]Hi, can someone add a limbo table for Agnes Steenstrup? The oldest in Denmark reference states she was confirmed alive as of 1 January 2014 and passed away prior to 1 April 2014. Thanks. CommanderLinx (talk) 04:44, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
- She died at her home on the 1st of March 2014 according to the official registration. In Denmark, anyone can ask for a birth certificate or a complete extract of recorded information for a person of 110 years of age or older (dead or alive). Oleryhlolsson (talk) 09:50, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

Links set by Guaraparinga
[edit]Over all the months and years before Guaraparinga began to "correct" lists in supercentenarian pages on Wikipedia only one link to historical and actual regions and subregions of a country was done in all of the tables here. What is the advantage to link everything double, three times, four times or more? Only that more words are shown in blue colour? Is this consensus here in supercentenarian pages? I think it is better first to discuss such changes instead of doing so, which forces unfortunately edit wars... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8108:41C0:50D8:A431:A5E0:A254:D728 (talk) 19:23, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
- What is the advantage to link everything double, three times, four times or more?
As I indicated in my edit, it is MOS:DL:Duplicate linking in stand-alone and embedded lists is permissible if it significantly aids the reader. This is most often the case when the list is presenting information that could just as aptly be formatted in a table, and is expected to be parsed for particular bits of data, not read from top to bottom.
- I think it is better first to discuss such changes instead of doing so
That's just statusquoism; it's not the WP editing WP:CYCLE. In fact, it's the very first example of WP:OWNBEHAVIOUR:An editor disputes minor edits concerning layout, image use, and wording in a particular article frequently. The editor might claim, whether openly or implicitly, the right to review any changes before they can be added to the article.

- As an uninvolved third opinion, I support the duplicate linking in this and the other supercentenarian tables, because it's consistent with the latest manual of style guidelines for tables and because it's more usable for the reader. MOS:DL and the examples in MOS:TABLES favor this. See similar formatting at List of Danish records in athletics. Single-linking may be the status quo for these lists but that just means we have discovered room for improvement. Goffman82 20:31, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
RfC: Delinked places of birth and death
[edit]Lists of supercentenarians pages seem to have arrived to a status quo in which places of birth and death are wikilinked only once on the table (in a perhaps misunderstanding of MOS:OL, when that applies to prose, while MOS:DL applies to lists), causing the reader to, when reading a row, have to look for the same place on another row to follow its link. Should each place of birth or death be linked only on one cell of a table, or on every instance so that readers can read tabular data tabularly? — Guarapiranga ☎ 02:37, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
- FYI, MOS:DL states:
— Guarapiranga ☎ 03:50, 22 June 2022 (UTC)Duplicate linking in stand-alone and embedded lists is permissible if it significantly aids the reader. This is most often the case when the list is presenting information that could just as aptly be formatted in a table, and is expected to be parsed for particular bits of data, not read from top to bottom.
