...I said that all people die. That is not original research, it is common knowledge. The article for the USA does not cite the fact that the US has 50 states - should it also have a source?

I looked at the page history, and you tagged me as a vandal. I don't appreciate being called a vandal because I pointed out that people die. The fact that death is inevitable for all people is a very important concept in understanding death, and as is this pretty basic fact is not mentioned in the article.

I am aware that this is probably a bot I am talking to, but since there is no "hey I'm not a vandal" button I am trying to communicate best I can in the hope that some human somewhere monitors this. An article on death that does not mention what I added is akin to an article on basketball that does not mention that basketball is a sport.
