Peter Dupas

I'd like some feedback about the organisation of the article on this alleged Australian serial killer, mostly whether it contains too much detail, too little, or if the general flow is a little awkward. Any other feedback or suggestions on improving the article are most welcomed also. Currently listed for consideration at Good articles. -- Longhair\^talk 14:00, 27 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

After a glance, the intro is a bit confusing: he's said to be an "alleged" killer, but then the lead paragraphs seem to assume that he indeed is one, and mention his convictions. Can "alleged" be removed here? Otherwise, looks very good, but maybe GA/FA should wait until the judicial proceedings are over and the article is stable. Sandstein 22:26, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your review. After I requested an outside opinion on the article from another editor, they added the "alleged" wording, and I somewhat agree with their reasoning. Whilst it's widely believed and reported in the media that Dupas *is* a serial killer, the Wikipedia article on serial killers states serial killers "are people who kill on at least three occasions". Dupas has only been convicted of two murders thus far but is a suspect in a further three. I guess it's open to debate how we label him for now. Time will tell once the current judicial process has run its course. -- Longhair\^talk 22:38, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
