Update of men oldest
editthe oldest man is currently https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fauja_Singh none the one mentioned on this page
- Please see the Shi Ping topic above. The same applies. Softmist (talk) 17:11, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
- What Shi Ping topic? I can't see one.
- Wikipedia says that
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shi_Ping_(politician)
- died on 29 June 2024 aged 112 years, 241 days. Is that sufficient for him to be included in the top 100 oldest ever men?

- It's in the archives here. DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 09:48, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
- StuZealand, He needs to be validated by a reliable source (Gerontology Research Group, Longiviquest etc.) He is not included currently because I think he is still in pending validation. Smartboy78 (talk) 03:35, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Softmist, I don't think this man is validated by any reliable source. Smartboy78 (talk) 03:41, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- No, Fauja Singh isn't, and I don't think he will be anytime soon. Softmist (talk) 05:27, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
Age as of ...........
editCould we add "Age as of (..date..)" to the age column? It seems updates are done at various times so it's hard to tell if the age for corrected yet for that day or not. This is done on several other Wiki "Oldest People" sites. I'd even help with the updates but I've learned that if you make the slightest mistake you invoke the wrath of God from a certain person, so I'm not doing it.

Swami Savinanda. Again.
editAbove list is totally wrong, there's still a living man in India who's age is around 125 year named svami sivananda. He recently came into limelight after receiving one of the India's most precious award i.e, Padma Bhushan. https://www.google.com/search?q=swami+sivananda+padma+shri&sca_esv=1fc18fc5814bda98&sxsrf=ADLYWIISiHjIojPFyrOwg0Ti9qv-JYceRA%3A1719028395422&ei=q0p2Zq6rGbiQseMP3KqsyAU&gs_ssp=eJzj4tVP1zc0LDSOTzaqyksyYPSSKi5PzM1UKM4sS8xLzEtJVChITMlNVCjOKMoEAC9MDqU&oq=swami+shivananda+padma+&gs_lp=EhNtb2JpbGUtZ3dzLXdpei1zZXJwIhdzd2FtaSBzaGl2YW5hbmRhIHBhZG1hICoCCAAyBxAuGIAEGA0yBxAAGIAEGA0yBhAAGBYYHjILEAAYgAQYhgMYigUyCxAAGIAEGIYDGIoFMgsQABiABBiGAxiKBTILEAAYgAQYhgMYigUyBxAhGKABGApI1TpQtglYiyxwAXgBkAEAmAHXAqAB_w6qAQUyLTUuMrgBAcgBAPgBAZgCCKAC6BDCAgoQABiwAxjWBBhHwgINEAAYgAQYsAMYQxiKBcICFhAuGIAEGLADGEMY1AIYyAMYigXYAQHCAhMQLhiABBiwAxhDGMgDGIoF2AEBwgINEC4YgAQYFBjUAhiHAsICCxAAGIAEGJECGIoFwgIHEAAYgAQYCsICBRAAGIAEwgIHEC4YgAQYCsICDRAAGIAEGLEDGIMBGArCAgsQLhiABBiRAhiKBcICCBAAGAUYDRgemAMAiAYBkAYMugYECAEYCJIHBzEuMC40LjOgB4JC&sclient=mobile-gws-wiz-serp 2409:40E6:10:C922:8076:2FF:FE5E:AFC3 (talk) 04:02, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

Surely Shi Ping (politician) merits a spot
editHe lived to 112 years and 241 days. Beestalman (talk) 13:55, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- His age is currently pending by both LongeviQuest and the GRG, once he's fully validated he will be added to the list. Milus331 (talk) 20:36, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- I see, thank you. Beestalman (talk) 05:15, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
- He is now fully validated by the GRG. Milus331 (talk) 22:00, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- That's excellent, thank you for letting me know. Beestalman (talk) 06:23, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- He is now fully validated by the GRG. Milus331 (talk) 22:00, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

Is eiko Minami still alive?
editI was checking and read Gerontology wiki (is Eiko minami still alive?) she was born in 1909 she was a dance actress known for the 1926 Japanese film "A Page of Madness", but the strange thing is that English and Japanese Wikipedia mentions nothing about her date of death. If she were still alive she would be the fourth-oldest living person in the world Not sure I doubt if she is still alive https://m.imdb.com/name/nm1272552/ Nicubining (talk) 00:45, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
Johnson Parks
editLongeviQuest has more or less debunked his age. Should he be removed? Avengingbandit 05:28, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Yes. The GRG will likely follow in the upcoming days. Milus331 (talk) 14:41, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
