If a family member DOES update a page,
the officious Wikipedes will revert the announcement
and wait until someone who heard it from someone else
he believes posts it instead.

This goes for a family member announcing a death
OR correcting a false report of a death...if it
wasn't invented somewhere else by someone without
direct connection they don't want to hear it.

The World Trade Center towers MUST rise again,
at least as tall as before...or terror has triumphed.
