Registration of Death (Date Query)

Many if not all the provided citations confirming date of death as 26 July 2023, were published about a year after her death. Yet in January 2025 a publication claimed her ex husband registered her death at the point of obtaining probate (somewhere between 12 and 18 months after her death). Has anyone managed to see the actual Death Certificate to verify the date of registration. There is no dispute over her date of death, just registration.

Use of "Dead Name"

Why is her 'Dead Name' used in this article? Her preferred name was "Shuhada' Sadaqat". Her article should reflect her name preference. Seki1949 (talk) 23:18, 23 December 2025 (UTC)

No one knows her as Shuppupu Shaneequa or whatever. Everyone knows Sinead O'Connor. There's no such thing as a "dead name". If she had lived a week longer she probably would have converted to pastafarianism or whatever and named herself lasagna, but who cares the article is for the person reading it's not a reddit post. ~2026-73448-4 (talk) 23:25, 2 February 2026 (UTC)
this is an incredibly insensitive and immature reply. there is no need for this kind of language when answering a genuine question like this ~2026-30343-69 (talk) 15:22, 20 May 2026 (UTC)
