The other of the first two suicides

edit

@Esvabird, John B123, WaddlesJP13, and Davemck: Since you're all of the contributors so far to this new article, I'm pinging you for a consultation -- Death (also by suicide; days after the attack) of officer Howard Liebengood doesn't have an article; I think that it can be included here, and this article's subject expanded to 'Deaths of Howard Liebengood and Jeffrey L. Smith', instead of creating another, probably rather small, article. What do you think? — Alalch Emis (talk) 00:37, 8 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Alalch Emis: I'm going to just comment – since I'm not too familiar with the topic to make any thorough suggestions, and I only stumbled across this article while page reviewing and decided to clean it up a bit and clarify on things – that I believe that if these are two separate people who died days apart, there should be two separate articles regardless of their similar deaths.

@Alalch Emis: I am new to wikipedia, and started to write these, along with others I am interested in. I think they need to be different articles. The facts are different about each of them, Smith is suing, LIebengood's wife is arguing different arguments, Evans was killed, and Sicknick's cause of death is still being debated. I suspected Smith's page will increase as the courts issue decisions, and other articles are written. Also, I do not know how to add a photo to wiki yet, but could one of you do so? There are plenty of Smith out there. I will start an article for Liebengood. Esvabird (talk) 12:56, 8 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
Yeah I think the same as both of you after sleeping on it. Seems like a great idea to make Death of Howard Liebengood. Adding images to Wikipedia is suprisingly non-straightforward. These are some of the texts "governing" it: Wikipedia:Image use policy, Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Images. IMHO it's best if you let someone else do it for the time being. — Alalch Emis (talk) 13:09, 8 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi everyone, still somewhat new here, but I updated the article to properly note that officer smith's death has now officially been ruled line of duty, and directly linked to the injuries he suffered on January 6th by the Police and Firefighter Relief and Retirement Board. Please help me flush this out and add to the other articles as well. Thank you, Esvabird (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 16:05, 20 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
