Proposed copyedit

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but anyway: may I propose a minor edit to this page? I'd like to change

The American musician Jimi Hendrix died in London on September 18, 1970. He was 27 years old.

The current phrasing is awkward because it seems like "September 18, 1970" is aged 27. "at age 27" is fine too. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 17:26, 18 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the suggestion. This article is in British English (since the death happened in London), and ", aged 27" (at the end of a sentence or clause) is one of the most common ways to say that in Britain these days. - Dank (push to talk) 17:37, 18 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough, it's not a big deal. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 17:53, 18 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
