Oppose. A small number of murderers, rather than their victims, are named in main title headers. Since Emeline Meaker was the first woman executed by Vermont, this is one of the rare cases in which the murderer is more notable than the murder. —Roman Spinner(talk • contribs) 23:50, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
oppose the subject of the article is not murder. It is about Emeline Meaker. It was not only that she got notability for getting hanged. It seems like she was notable in 1880s as Emeline Meaker, and not as "lady who got hanged for murder" or as "murderer of niece/Alice Meaker". —usernamekiran (talk) 20:41, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
