[edit]

it states...with his ashes interred later in a family plot at Karrakatta Cemetery, next to two of his grandparents. This is incorrect. We have no record of Heath Ledger's ashes being interred at Karrakatta Cemetery and there is no memorial. We have many international visitors making the trek to Karrakatta Cemetery based on the information they read on Wiki only to find they have wasted their time. Can you please remove this information.

The People story cited says he was "expected to be buried" at Karrakatta. The Metropolitan Cemeteries Board record cited states he was cremated at Fremantle with nothing about the ultimate disposition of the ashes. In the absence of a definitive location, we probably need to align the article with the source that he was expected to be buried at Karrakatta, not actually buried there. —C.Fred (talk) 03:23, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. Difficult to prove the negative though. I'm going to amend to just say the ashes were removed from Fremantle for interment at an unspecified location. If we get into the realms of "there was speculation the ashes would be interred at Karrakatta, but they weren't" the first part is citable, the second isn't.

Oscar statuette possession

[edit]

Towards the end of the Legacy section, it states regarding his Oscar trophy that Ledger’s daughter Matilda “would not gain full ownership of the statuette until her eighteenth birthday in 2023.” Are there any updated sources which can confirm or refute whether this happened? 38.27.26.133 (talk) 23:54, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
