The following is a list of '''notable deaths in 2012'''.

Entries for each day are listed <u>alphabetically</u> by surname. A typical entry lists information in the following sequence:
*Name, age, country of citizenship and reason for notability, established cause of death, reference (and language of reference, if not ]).
<!--
=============Please read before adding a name to this list=============
Only those meeting the ] guidelines are listed, with a reference to a ]. If there is not already a Misplaced Pages article for the person, please reconsider if the person is actually notable, or consider writing one yourself.

NOTE: Causes of death such as "old age" and "natural causes" should not be cited unless stated in the reference.

The intent of these pages is to report notable deaths. Tragic deaths, while unfortunate, do not necessarily make the deceased "notable". If you report the death of someone who does not already have a Misplaced Pages article, please consider starting one, provided the person is notable, with other third-party sources than the obituary.

Alphabetical order please. Please avoid ]ing. Therefore, do not wikilink nationalities, common occupations, or common causes of death, instead only adding "links that aid navigation and understanding". Thank you.
