Talk:Disappearance of Ben Needham

message: The event is notable, the child is not. I suggest moving this article to Disappearance of Ben Needham which is a more normal style. TerriersFan 02:13, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Is the phrase 'False Hopes' suitable as a heading? The language used strikes me as way too informal for an encyclopaedia entry.

replies: text: The article needs a thorough rewrite. It currently reads like a web page written by the family and their supporters, and not an encyclopedia article. I started on the lede yesterday, but haven't got any further than that - yet. Keristrasza (talk) 07:27, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I would be prepared to help but it would be my first article edit. Which, for some odd reason, seems incredibly daunting. (78.149.2.161) Tj1916 (talk) 23:26, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: WP:BEBOLD and just do it! If it goes a bit pear-shaped, there is always somebody watching who will step in and help tidy up. Keristrasza (talk) 23:46, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Completed the first edit but had huge problems with referencing, even after reading the help page and watching the video. Got there in the end. There are no references for the third paragraph in the disappearance section and I am struggling to track one down. Tj1916 (talk) 22:36, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I found an article in the Western Mail supporting the first part of that paragraph, but haven't been able to find anything mentioning the alleged sighting by the shop assistant. Keristrasza (talk) 22:51, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Great stuff. There are a few options with the 'False Hopes' section: Changing the title to 'Alleged Sightings' (or similar); merging the section with Disappearance (and changing the section title to reflect the sightings information); merging it with the 'Later Events' section and changing the title; deleting the 'False Hopes' section altogether. I'd be inclined to go with either of the first two options. Also, I wonder if the article needs both a 'Later Events' and a 'Latest Developments' section. Any thoughts?

replies: text: Perhaps: Lead section; Disappearance; Police investigations (1991; xxxx; 2012); Alleged sightings (incl. Abduction theory?), something along those lines. Keristrasza (talk) 23:30, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
