Including Marlowe's death seems to me a bad decision. We know who killed the playwright; we have an account how he died; what we don't know have is a plausible motivation for his killing. According to the witnesses in the coroner's inquest, it was a case of accidental manslaughter -- he was caught between two men who decided to pull knives on each other -- but their testimony has always raised eyebrows. The two men involved were rather sketchy individuals, two guys who were known to have committed crimes & were not above stretching the facts to excuse their actions. The fact we lack any solid evidence to contradict their testimony is what keeps historians from calling his death more than "suspicious": Marlowe might have died due to accident, or it was a hold-up, or (as a few imaginative types claim) it was to keep Marlowe from revealing what he had been doing as a secret agent on behalf of Her Britannic Majesty. -- llywrch (talk) 16:30, 9 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

As the unsolved murders in Northern Ireland are disregarded, would it then be more fitting for the name of the article to be the list of Unsolved murders in Great Britain? R2214 (talk) 04:32, 27 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
A discussion is taking place to address the redirect List of unsolved murders in the United Kingdom (before 1990). The discussion will occur at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 October 9#List of unsolved murders in the United Kingdom (before 1990) until a consensus is reached, and readers of this page are welcome to contribute to the discussion.
