Removed Thumbsucker from the list of Full Length Albums. No reason for it to be there. It might have been intended for him to eventually compose the entire soundtrack, but he did not. It is therefore what it is: a soundtrack compilation with three tracks by Smith. --niiru 12:23, Oct 02, 2005 (EST)

Steven Patrick Smith? I have not found that name anywhere else on the web and it seems like something Morrisey would be named (since Steven Patrick is his first name, and he was in The Smiths). Is this really Elliott Smith's real name?

Various news sources and obituaries claim it was Steven Paul Smith, which I've changed the article to reflect. --Delirium 22:15, Oct 22, 2003 (UTC)

Category:Suicides

I've added this article to Category:Suicides -- regardless of the "we don't know" stance reflected in this article, since it's pretty widely believed he died by suicide, it should belong in that category. Whether or not he actually committed suicide, this article will probably be of interest to people browsing that category. It's sort of the nature of suspected suicides that it's often hard to know for sure what the real story is. As there's no Category:Possible suicides, Category:Unconfirmed suicides, Category:Suspected suicides, etc. this seems like the best place. Maybe the better place is List of suicides (see Wikipedia:Categorization of people) but either way, I wanted to raise the topic. (I prefer the category, but I have an anti-list bias.) -- Tetraminoe 04:47, 3 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
