Recent edits
editThe recent edits to the article need footnotes, is too long, and has an informal unencyclopedic (sp?) feel to it. Perhaps the featured article Natalee Holloway should be used as a model. --CutOffTies (talk) 03:51, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
Agreed. This article needs work to make it read less like a piece of true crime prose and more like an encyclopaedia article. Nacentaeons (talk) 21:23, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
Lack of citations and original research
editThis article needs a lot of work. i suggest deleting sections that appear to be original research or speculation and rumour. Nacentaeons (talk) 21:57, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

Charles Walton (murder victim) → Murder of Charles Walton – On the grounds of WP:1E, Walton himself should not have a page as he is only notable for being murdered in strange circumstances. The murder is the noteworthy event and is what the page is about, therefore it should be titled after the murder.--Tulzscha (talk) 01:49, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support. We don't have articles on individuals whose only claim to notability is their death. Rreagan007 (talk) 02:48, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support. No objection to Killing of Charles Walton. 162 etc. (talk) 16:46, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support per nom. Killing of Charles Walton might be slightly preferable per WP:DEATHS, as no murder conviction occurred in this case, but either title is an improvement over the status quo. ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 21:45, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
