Item: Emmett Vogan

Language: en-US

Type of Problem: Incorrect_content

Extra Details: There's no incorrect content. I'm submitting this report to request that the birth and death dates fields, as well as the birth location, be locked, as I've researched Mr. Vogan's public records and determined that those details are accurate and verified.

For some mysterious reason, other sites indicate an October 6, 1969 death date for him. However both the Social Security Death Index and the California Death Index very clearly and definitely document him as having died on November 13, 1969. It's for sure him as not only is the names combination a perfect match, but so is the known precise indicated birth date, plus the indices further indicate he was born in Ohio; thus the overall details corroborate that the November 13, 1969 death date belongs, indeed, to this man. Furthermore, the Los Angeles Times published his death notice on Nov. 16th; it mentions Mr. Vogan's known wife Edythe and the couple's known son Emmett Jr.

Meanwhile, Wikipedia correctly indicates Lima, Ohio as having been his birthplace, whereas IMDb indicates, wrongly, Cleveland, Ohio. Lima is for sure correct, as I've viewed an abstract of Mr. Vogan's actual Ohio birth record, and it specifies that Lima was where he was born.

The mentioned details are sure to wind up eventually changed on our site if not locked now while still correct.

Thank you.

FYI: I realize that when we present a Wikipedia biography (full or partial) as our TMDb biography for a person that we're supposed to include the spelled-out birth/death dates in the text. In Mr. Vogan's case, because of the very wrong death date that Wikipedia states, I deemed it best to entirely eliminate the dates from the bio text, so readers won't become confused. Instead, our presented dates for Mr. Vogan, in his TMDb Personal Info sidebar, cover the bases.
