Copyedit edit

I added an infobox with an image and a victims section, and deleted all unsourced info. --*momoricks* (talk) 13:08, 9 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Victims edit

Four - or five? Four listed, and in header. Perhaps amend the middle bit? Autochthony wrote 0030z 22 Dec 2009. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.73.148.164 (talk) 00:29, 22 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Moore said he was also guilty of the murder of Clocaenog forest man, however, his claims were apparently dismissed by the police due to him not telling them the correct date. Which in my opinion is a flimsy reason not to convict him, but all extant sources side with the police, and Wikipedia policy says we have to go with the reliable source's line. Just to clear up why there may be some confusing edits. Phil of rel (talk) 22:02, 30 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

LGBT question edit

This is in the 'Violence against LGBT people in the United Kingdom' group, probably because most of his victims were gay. A few sources say Moore himself is gay, so I'd just like to know if it's still violence against LGBT people if the attacker is LGBT himself? Kohran (talk) 16:53, 21 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

It seems that wikipedia says we ought to do what the reliable sources do when these issues come up and say that yes it is violence against LGBT people even if the perp is LGBT.Phil of rel (talk) 15:14, 9 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

Collin Norris in "see also" section edit

I have two concerns about including him in the see also section:

1) how do we know Norris was gay? I've never heard that he thought of himself as gay.

2) it might be interpreted as linking murder to homosexuality, as the see also section is supposed to be relevant to the contents of the article. Plus if we're just including people for their targets or sexuality, Dennis Nilsen and Jeffrey Dahmer should be included too. But that makes the scope of that section far far too broad.--Phil of rel (talk) 22:05, 30 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
