Cause of death gives the balanced views of various experts. Please note that although Nichopoulos, Presley's main physician, was at the time "exonerated of criminal liability for the singer's death, ... His license was suspended for three months. It was permanently revoked in the 1990s after the Tennessee Medical Board brought new charges of over-prescription." Consensus among regular editors who judge it important to preserve a reliable, mainstream view in this encyclopedia article is that the discredited doctor's opinions, such as those published in his 2010 book, and including his attempt to emphasize constipation as the likely cause of death, should not be propagated by Wikipedia, and hence receive no coverage in this article.

https://bamfstyle.com/2019/08/02/elvis-blue-hawaii-red/ I found this image of Elvis and I am wondering if it is public domain. It is from 1961 for Blue Hawaii as a promotional photo, and I cannot find this photo in any other place. If it is Public Domain, then I think it would be great to use as a lead Wcamp9 (talk) 19:50, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
