| ==Howard Hughes== | |||
| According to wikipedia's Howard Hughes site, Howard Hughes died with a will. I think the person who included that information was getting his syntax confused. Howard Hughes died with a will, but it was created before the birth of his son, so his son was a pretermitted son and was given a son's share of Howard Hughes, Sr.'s estate. I will leave it to someone else to investigate and change. | |||
| : This appears to be an old suggestion. Hughes is not mentioned within the present version of the article. ] (]) 22:42, 24 April 2024 (UTC) | |||

Title of article should be revised
The title of this article should either be Last will and testament; or simply Wills. The latter generally is preferred; but the salient point in any case is that the document records you last will, in the original sense of the verb and noun.
- The title perhaps should be "Will (law)". There apparently was a redirect from "Will(law)" (no space) but I don't know the history and the issue with that redirect may have been the absence of a space. Arllaw (talk) 22:50, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Inappropriate link
The link to Rockwill seems totally inappropriate.
- This appears to be resolved. Arllaw (talk) 22:43, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Video wills?
The article mentions holographic wills and dictated wills, but what about video wills? They've been around for decades now! It seems like it would be hard to claim that a video will doesn't reflect the intentions of the maker, so they should be at least as valid as holographic wills, but what does the law actually say? Critterkeeper (talk) 03:54, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
- The answer to that depends upon the jurisdiction. In the jurisdictions I'm familiar with, the concept of a video will is a bit of a misnomer, with its being a video that should be prepared and presented in association with a written will that meets the requirements of state law. It may be a subtopic worth developing, if somebody wants to take it on and can find appropriate sources. Arllaw (talk) 22:45, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

- This appears to have been resolved with the deletion of the redirect. Arllaw (talk) 22:45, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
