The 11-year-old
[edit]I'm concerned about calling an 11-year-old runaway someone's "girlfriend". Statutory rape victim seems slightly more appropriate but... But I don't know what the sources say and I don't want to overstep. jengod (talk) 18:40, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
- @Jengod: I agree, I re-worded it. The sources use "girlfriend" in quotes so I decided to just re-word it altogether. Regards. Inexpiable (talk) 12:28, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
- I've checked that source, made a slight adjustment. The newspaper calls her his "girlfriend", scare quotes included, and says he was later charged with statutory rape. Valereee (talk) 13:11, 11 October 2023 (UTC)

OR in Executions section
[edit]The sources for the first two sentences of the final para don't mention Gardner, Plath, or Arnold. I think this is OR, and really the entire paragraph feels kind of like editorializing. Valereee (talk) 13:22, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
- I've made some edits to address. Valereee (talk) 13:31, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
