:Which one? Can you put a dead link tag? 69.125.134.86 (talk) 16:23, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  The link for the only source doesn't work 

message: I did some copy editing and cleaned up the source and external links. Serial killer art appears to be a type, not a synonym, of murderabilia, so I removed it from the lead. The Serial killer art section is unreferenced, so I tagged it. momoricks 04:33, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cleaned up a bit 

message: Regardless of whether you think is a legitimate, interesting form of memorabilia or if you think it is morbid, tacky and offensive, a neutral POV must be maintained. Present the controversy as it is playing out in laws and legislation without obvious support for one side or the other. 
At most, you can quote the participants in this dispute about their feelings/thoughts about this subject. But in describing what is occurring, you shouldn't select verbs and adjectives that either show you think murderabilia is really cool or, on the other hand, the most repulsive activity imaginable. 69.125.134.86 (talk) 16:22, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reminder: Maintain neutral POV 

message: Just heard on the news that George Zimmerman wants to auction off the gun used in the Trayvon Martin case - Would this be considered Murderabilia?? 67.80.103.155 (talk) 05:45, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The two of you have been edit warring, reverting each other’s edits. Edit warring is a no-no here; you could be blocked if it continues. Instead of blocking anyone at this time, I have locked the article for two days. That gives you two days to come here to the talk page and TALK about the things you want to add to the article. Support your opinion with references and Wikipedia policy. Don’t resume the edit warring after the protection expires because blocks would be the next step. Good luck improving the article through discussion and collaboration. --MelanieN (talk) 20:52, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

text: I don't see any evidence that you have tried to talk to him; certainly not on this talk page or on his talk page. And I don't know what you mean by "telling other dealers". What you may want to do is ask other people who have edited this article, for their advice or opinions. Let me advise you: don't talk about who he is or what his motivation is. Wikipedia has a strong rule against revealing personal information about other editors. If you actually know who he is or what his name is or anything like that, keep it to yourself. And if you don't know but are just guessing, that's bad too. There is an equally strong rule against accusing other editors of stuff. So I advise you to just talk about the edits, and specifically which edits you think should not be in the article. For example, if there are edits that promote a particular business, those should be kept out per WP:SPAM. Don't base your case on what you guess to be true about him, and don't make it be about you-versus-him. Just talk about what should be in the article. "Talk about the edits, not about each other." --MelanieN (talk) 21:48, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: What we have, continuing tonight, are several dealers trying to use the article either for promotional purposes or adding and removing content without regard to WP:RELIABLE sources. I've asked that the page be locked, and will request further attention from admins as needed. 2601:188:180:11F0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 04:45, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
