I think it might be more useful if we link to the "In Memoriam" page entry for
the person instead of a given page in the journal or forum.  The "In Memoriam"
page has everybody in one place and not everyone will have an article or forum
page written about them. And, it makes it simpler to fix any other entries that
we may miss initially, like the wiki or some website page.

A related question does occur though - how far back into previous documentation
sets should we go looking to make changes - 2 releases? 5 releases?  The entire
corpus?

I can see this becoming resource intensive. We may need to develop a tool or
script to identify all places that should be changed, actually make the change
automagically, and update the script as needed.
