There were others, athough your Wikipedia list is quite well documented.
One I recall also is a SAS DC8 ditching on approach to LAX... in the 1960s?
One other JAL, a DC8 captain going "banzai" in Tokyo Bay, mental reasons.
I recall also a Sudan Air 707 dipping in the Nile South of Khartoum.
The National 727 landing in Pensacola (I mentioned that one earlier here).
And there probably are many others.

Notoriously, often, many, when not all passengers got out ok.
But we know, US Air 1549 will become a textbook example in classrooms.
