Update history (AGAIN)

I see by the list that a deceased woman and a deceased man was added but no mention in the update. Now how is anyone supposed to know WHO was added if you don't put it in the history? This isn't rocket science and it's not that hard. In fact, if it's too hard then don't do the update either. So now can someone tell me who was added to both lists? Or is that too much work too?

Please click on the button that says "prev" for the row of the relevant edit and that will show you exactly what was changed. Easter Wiggins was added to the oldest women list (rank 60), while Stanisław Kowalski was added to the oldest men list (rank 61). Softmist (talk) 07:08, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
No reason that can't be added to the edit history instead of making people hunt for it. GermanShepherd1983 (talk) 03:57, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 16 May 2024

Add that a woman, Lillian Elliot from Guyana that is alive was verified as born on July 31, 1909. The source to the newspaper article is here: https://uncutnews.co/2024/03/guyanas-oldest-resident-receives-gift-of-new-home-from-generous-philanthropist/. 24.186.141.111 (talk) 01:05, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

A newspaper article does not count as verified. The article only includes people whose age has been "validated by organisations specialising in extreme age verification". DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 02:01, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Missing person

Mary Schultz lived to 115 and is not on this list, this should be updated reflecting this. Beaumobile (talk) 15:11, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

 Not done You hae not provided verification from reliable sources. Peaceray (talk) 17:31, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Oldest person in the world

professor lenana from Kenya 154.159.254.172 (talk) 13:00, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

132yrs 154.159.254.172 (talk) 13:00, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
Does not qualify for inclusion in this article, even with a WP:RS. Too old for Longevity claims. Possibly include in Longevity myths. DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 21:26, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

Age as of ...........

Could we add "Age as of (..date..)" to the age column? It seems updates are done at various times so it's hard to tell if the age for corrected yet for that day or not. This is done on several other Wiki "Oldest People" sites. I'd even help with the updates but I've learned that if you make the slightest mistake you invoke the wrath of God from a certain person, so I'm not doing it.

Above list is totally wrong, there's still a living man in India who's age is around 125 year named svami sivananda. He recently came into limelight after receiving one of the India's most precious award i.e, Padma Bhushan. https://www.google.com/search?q=swami+sivananda+padma+shri&sca_esv=1fc18fc5814bda98&sxsrf=ADLYWIISiHjIojPFyrOwg0Ti9qv-JYceRA%3A1719028395422&ei=q0p2Zq6rGbiQseMP3KqsyAU&gs_ssp=eJzj4tVP1zc0LDSOTzaqyksyYPSSKi5PzM1UKM4sS8xLzEtJVChITMlNVCjOKMoEAC9MDqU&oq=swami+shivananda+padma+&gs_lp=EhNtb2JpbGUtZ3dzLXdpei1zZXJwIhdzd2FtaSBzaGl2YW5hbmRhIHBhZG1hICoCCAAyBxAuGIAEGA0yBxAAGIAEGA0yBhAAGBYYHjILEAAYgAQYhgMYigUyCxAAGIAEGIYDGIoFMgsQABiABBiGAxiKBTILEAAYgAQYhgMYigUyBxAhGKABGApI1TpQtglYiyxwAXgBkAEAmAHXAqAB_w6qAQUyLTUuMrgBAcgBAPgBAZgCCKAC6BDCAgoQABiwAxjWBBhHwgINEAAYgAQYsAMYQxiKBcICFhAuGIAEGLADGEMY1AIYyAMYigXYAQHCAhMQLhiABBiwAxhDGMgDGIoF2AEBwgINEC4YgAQYFBjUAhiHAsICCxAAGIAEGJECGIoFwgIHEAAYgAQYCsICBRAAGIAEwgIHEC4YgAQYCsICDRAAGIAEGLEDGIMBGArCAgsQLhiABBiRAhiKBcICCBAAGAUYDRgemAMAiAYBkAYMugYECAEYCJIHBzEuMC40LjOgB4JC&sclient=mobile-gws-wiz-serp 2409:40E6:10:C922:8076:2FF:FE5E:AFC3 (talk) 04:02, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

As noted multiple times in the archives of this page and others: He is in Longevity claims where he belongs. DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 04:12, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

Update of men oldest

the oldest man is currently https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fauja_Singh none the one mentioned on this page

Please see the Shi Ping topic above. The same applies. Softmist (talk) 17:11, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
What Shi Ping topic? I can't see one.
Wikipedia says that
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shi_Ping_(politician)
died on 29 June 2024 aged 112 years, 241 days. Is that sufficient for him to be included in the top 100 oldest ever men?
StuZealand (talk) 09:37, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
It's in the archives here. DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 09:48, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
StuZealand, He needs to be validated by a reliable source (Gerontology Research Group, Longiviquest etc.) He is not included currently because I think he is still in pending validation. Smartboy78 (talk) 03:35, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
Softmist, I don't think this man is validated by any reliable source. Smartboy78 (talk) 03:41, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
No, Fauja Singh isn't, and I don't think he will be anytime soon. Softmist (talk) 05:27, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

Surely Shi Ping (politician) merits a spot

He lived to 112 years and 241 days. Beestalman (talk) 13:55, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

His age is currently pending by both LongeviQuest and the GRG, once he's fully validated he will be added to the list. Milus331 (talk) 20:36, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
I see, thank you. Beestalman (talk) 05:15, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
He is now fully validated by the GRG. Milus331 (talk) 22:00, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
That's excellent, thank you for letting me know. Beestalman (talk) 06:23, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Is eiko Minami still alive?

I was checking and read Gerontology wiki (is Eiko minami still alive?) she was born in 1909 she was a dance actress known for the 1926 Japanese film "A Page of Madness", but the strange thing is that English and Japanese Wikipedia mentions nothing about her date of death. If she were still alive she would be the fourth-oldest living person in the world Not sure I doubt if she is still alive https://m.imdb.com/name/nm1272552/ Nicubining (talk) 00:45, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Johnson Parks

LongeviQuest has more or less debunked his age. Should he be removed? Avengingbandit 05:28, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

Yes. The GRG will likely follow in the upcoming days. Milus331 (talk) 14:41, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
