 *[[Ernest Borgnine]] is dead in real life. But the status of {{ch|Ernest Borgnine|his character}} is uncertain (the ending of the episode in which his character appeared left it unclear), so the status on his character page is "Possibly deceased".
 *[[Ian McKellen]] is alive in real life. However, {{ch|Ian McKellen|his character}} was shown suffering a potentially lethal series of mishaps and it was unclear whether he survived. Therefore, the status on his character page is "Possibly deceased".
-*[[Jerry Springer]] is alive in real life, but {{ch|Jerry Springer|his character}} was killed in a non-canon episode. His character has no canon appearances, so the status on his character page is "Non-canon deceased".

 *[[Bob Hope]] is dead in real life, and his passing has been referred to on the show, so his {{ch|Bob Hope|character page}} shows his status as "Deceased".
 *Real people who have a dedication at the end of an episode of ''The Simpsons'' do '''not''' count as deceased unless their passing is mentioned in the actual episode. For example, [[Huell Howser]] is dead in real life and received a dedication at the end of "[[A Test Before Trying]]" but {{Ch|Huell Howser|his character}} was not mentioned to be deceased in the episode.
