She was reported alive December 10...so it's common sense to say that Ishida was the "oldest resident" in question...though her name wasn't reported in the condolences. Well if they are gone, then unfortunately, they are gone. That's tough luck. You still don't seem to understand why we insist on referencing to reliable sources: it's so that readers of the article can check for themselves that the information they are reading in the article is indeed accurate, and where that information has come from. If the source doesn't exist, then the reader can't check it and therefore doesn't know where the information has come from. Ollie231213 (talk) 01:23, June 21, 2016 (UTC)
