Arthur is dead on JKR's page

Assuming that JKR's Web page is cannon (and I think it is), I believe Arthur 
dies in the 6th book and that JKR has already written his death. If you look 
under the information on the Weasley family (under the tea cup) it says "Arthur 
Weasley WAS one of three brothers" -- not "is," but "was." All othe characters 
on site are referred to in the present tense (with the exception of those we 
know are dead).

Now, of course, another explanation coudl be that one or more of his brothers 
has died, but as we haven't been introduced to them, they are not very likely 
to be killed in books 6 or 7 (although anything is possible). If they died in the 
previous war, there really is no reason for JKR not to give us this information, 
as she does regarding Molly's realtives that were killed.

Anyone?
