Incorrect DOB
editYear of birth of "1940" is ridiculous. He was actively competing in pro wrestling by the 1950s. 1940 U.S. Federal Census records his age of 7, giving a DOB of 1932–33. I'd like to change this on the page itself, but would be good to hear the opinion of others first. --Jkaharper (talk) 22:07, 28 February 2021 (UTC)
The first article source says 1940, but the Deaths in 2021 source says 1938, although it also says he was 80 which obviously doesn't add up. Editrite! (talk) 10:05, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
- Jkaharper - Furthermore, he had a son in 1956, and attended Roosevelt High School by 1947 and apparently graduated in 1950. Per Hawaii Voting Records, 1932 looks to be correct [1], full name was Dean Kiyoshi Higuchi [2] (confirmed by parents' names in the above article and address in the legal notice).

- Great find. I'll stick the full name up for now using the newspaper source. If there's no objections in the next 7 days, I'll add the 1932 date. Thanks --Jkaharper (talk) 17:18, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
