Talk:Killing of Charlie Howard

Stephen King

Should there be a refernce in here to Stephen King's novel It? It was written around the same time, when the monster resurfaces and influences the killing of a gay man in exactly the same way as in this article. The It article even links here. See It (novel)#The Cycle under the 1984-1985 section. ArdClose (talk) 23:45, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

If that can be reliably sourced instead of assumed, sure, but I don't see any reliable sources that make that link. --joe decker^{talk to me} 03:16, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

Chuckahomo

Should it mention somewhere that some people now call the bridge the "Chuckahomo bridge"? A pun on the indian names things around here have and the fact that a homo was quite literally chucked off the bridge. —Preceding unsigned comment added by OMNI (talk • contribs) 17:24, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Ummm, probably not. Be worth revisiting if that name had substantial coverage in multiple, independent reliable sources, but the one I was able to find here by itself doesn't really rise to talking about it, in my opinion. (that's paywalled, but the relevant google snippet has the quote "....mayor of the city once infamous for its "Chuckahomo Bridge" had to say..." --joe decker^{talk to me} 03:13, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
