message: One article from Cracked.com actually suggested Adolf Hitler was behind this. Anyone know which article it was, I cannot remember.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.112.131.247 (talk) 16:59, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: One theory is that a man called Adolf Gump was involved, along with his brother Anton - the German Wiki gives a lot more detail. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 19:15, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
thread_title: Cracked.com and Hitler

message: Under the heading "Act: Events before the act", it states "A few days before the Tatnacht discovered Gruber also in the snow tracks to HofHinterkaifeck led, but not away from him again. Likewise, the inhabitants of the wasteland missed a front door key. In addition, someone had broken the padlock at the engine hut of the yard and untied a cow in the stable. In addition, the Hinterkaifecker noticed that the property from the forest was repeatedly observed by a man with a mustache."  Anyone with an understanding of English will note that this is a syntactic mess. Subjects disagree with objects, articles and prepositions are entirely missing, "In addition" is used to begin two sequential sentences, etc.  I suspect that it was translated from German to English using GoogleTranslate or some other application. Could anyone with an understanding of the incident -- particularly those fluent in German -- please take a look at the entire article, and this section in particular, to see what can be done to render it more intelligible?  Thank you. Bricology (talk) 21:06, 13 September 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Help needed in rewriting the article in proper English 

message: Looking over this article, and considering the massive wealth of sources that exists on the murders, this article is underdeveloped and undersourced, and is missing MAJOR pieces of information. There are some points in the article that requires some rewrites so that they meet Wikipiedia's guidelines and standards. In order for everything to be a bit more clear, I will list the following order of sections and subsections the article should be structured as, with explanations as to their content. Hopefully this all helps!
Section: Background- The Background of the area and victims BEFORE the crimes.
Section: Murders- Details of the murders themselves.
Subsections: Discovery- Discovery of the crime scene.
Section: Investigation- Police investigation of the murders.
Subsection: Initial Suspects- Detailed entries of suspects that were pointed out during the initial investigation of the murders.
Subsection: Proposed Suspects- Detailed entries of suspects that were not pointed out during the initial investigation. 
Section: Aftermath and Legacy- (Aftermath) The effects and influences the murders have had and their impact on society. Influences the murders have had upon works and popular culture. 
Subsection: Popular culture- Books, films and other adaptions of the murders can be included, as well as their inspiration, and references in other works.
 
PLEASE NOTE: Popular Culture sub section should NOT be formatted as bullet points.--Paleface Jack (talk) 17:52, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
