Although there is a Death Notes box available and one can enter sources for
the information you put there, when you click on the book icon (to get to
the "Assigned Sources" window, there is no "Death Notes" entry.

The source you entered for "Death Notes" instead shows up under the "Death"
sources.
When you print an individual or other report, the "Death Notes" entry has
no accompanying source citation.

So let's say I enter a death date as 1801 (as the most reliable) and give
Source A.
Then in the "Death notes" I say that other, less reliable, sources give a
date of 1803 or 1805, and cite Sources B and C.

But when I print the report, it looks as though Sources A,B,and C agree on
the 1801 date,
and the less reliable sources I've mentioned go unidentified!

What is the reason for not having separate sources for "Death Notes"?

I'm sure there is a workaround through events "alt death" entries but I
really don't want to do that.

I'd like to choose what I consider to be the most accurate date, give the
source(s), lump all the others into death notes, then give those sources
(and have them appear as "Death Notes" sources, NOT as "Death" sources).

Does this make sense?

What do others do?

(I'm sure there's similar a problem with birth and birth notes, though I
haven't yet checked.)
