I'm not seeing that death date. And history shows that even traditional news outlets can be badly wrong in the immediate aftermath of a shooting. James Brady didn't die in 1981 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Brady#Shooting - even with "all major media outlets" (per Wikipedia) saying that he did.

Kirk's wikipedia page is currently abuzz with edits and reversions of those edits, many of which are pronouncing him dead.

I'm convinced there are people whose first thought when someone dies is to race to update Wikipedia for some definition of clout.

I find it weird, at best.
