Fair use rationale for Image:2-1Mother's-Day-bookcover-(150).jpg

Image:2-1Mother's-Day-bookcover-(150).jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Sources

The further reading section contains the two books written about Knorr. Optimally, these should be used as sources because information in the Crime Library article is taken from them. momoricks 09:07, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Much of the article as it stands is roughly confirmed in a Los Angeles Times article: Paddock, Richard C. (14 November 1993). "'Unbelievable' Tale Reveals Grisly Crimes". Los Angeles Times. Retrieved 29 Feb 2012. However, the devil is in the details. There are numerous minor discrepancies. I looked for other primary sources (newspapers etc.) and found only two more links to the case. One relates to a preliminary trial appearance: "MOTHER APPEARS IN COURT ON COUNTS OF KILLING CHILDREN". Deseret News (AP). 21 December 1993. Retrieved 29 February 2012. The other was written upon the production of the Wicked Attraction episode: Gee, Jenifer (21 December 2008). "'Wicked' Local Crime Documented". Auburn Journal. Short of re-writing the article, I was unsure how to legitimately incorporate these items, so I leave this note for anyone inclined to re-edit the article in depth.Tkotc (talk) 05:38, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm skeptical that the "NowPublic" reference should be used. This seems little more than a blog page -- it even says it is "crowd sourced". It is based on two internet finds: (1) another source of questionable reliability, and (2) the truTV source that is already used in this article. I re-read the truTV article and noted that it supports the same fact that the NowPublic reference is used to support: that Terry was forced to burn the apartment. For what it's worth, Mrs Terry Groves Knorr Walker ("Terry") died 8 December 2011, and the Find-a-grave page for her has a rather lengthy autobiographical statement that may be of some use to someone trying to further research this article.Tkotc (talk) 07:49, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge proposal

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
The result was merge into this article due to lack of discussion. -- momoricks 21:38, 4 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Murder of Suesan and Sheila Knorr should be merged into this article. Their notability is limited to their murders, therefore they don't satisfy notability requirements for a stand-alone article, per Wikipedia:Notability_(criminal_acts)#Victims. momoricks 09:19, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Movie

It seems the 2010 movie The Afflicted is based on this story. If my guess is correct then it would make sense to add some mention of the movie. --31.45.79.44 (talk) 17:56, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

  • http://www.nowpublic.com/world/mothers-who-murder-0
    Triggered by \bnowpublic\.com\b on the local blacklist

Victim count and span of crimes

In the info box it should say that she has three victims not two since she murdered one of her husbands in 1964 even though she was acquitted of all charges Darren Cross (talk) 22:43, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
