HE RECEIVED it. WP must align with FACTS - not bend over backwards to play Caesar's wife. ALL obituary notices I've come across have included the 'EGOT' listing. At the least ADD it to the line! "Mr. Jones collected Tonys, Golden Globes, Emmys, Kennedy Center honors and an honorary Academy Award."[1] Cheers! Shir-Eltoo12:32, 15 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
You get nowhere by SHOUTING (and then becoming "chummy" afterwards). I'd practice your technique in civility if I was you. If an honorary Academy Award does not qualify as part of an EGOT, quoting as many other independent sources as you like cannot change that fact. Thanks.

I don't think he should be added. Williams "article" is merely a redirect to the Gayle murder article. He never had an article during the aftermath of the crime, or his trial. I don't see how his execution now makes him notable. The "one month" rule only applies when someone (or something) is sufficiently notable to have their own article. Williams does not tick that box. Execution does not take him over the line to become notable. WP:ONEEVENT applies here. WWGB (talk) 12:10, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
I would actually say BOTH are non-notable under WP:ONEEVENT and therefore both might be discarded. There then remains the question of notoriety, which seems to play a big part in the thinking of editors here. A question I can't neutrally answer. Ref(chew)(do)06:54, 26 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
