No assertion of their individual notabiliity, nor is anything said in these biographical stubs that isn't already included in the articles about the murderers, Perry Smith and Richard Hickock. Natalie 21:29, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Redirect all to In Cold Blood (book) as likely search terms. Otto4711 21:41, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Redirect all per Otto4711. I'm not really convinced that the perps are notable enough, either, but at least they have sufficiently fleshed-out articles. --Dhartung | Talk 21:58, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Redirect all. Rosemary Amey 22:28, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Keep or Merge to The Clutter family murders. The individuals listed were portrayed in at least 2 major motion pictures, and were discussed at length in a best selling book. Their deaths were not the product of simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time, but were the result of a long-formed plan, or perhaps a long term plan gone awry. Exclusive of Wikipedia and "In Cold Blood," individual family members get over 1000 Google hits. This was a notorious mass murder of the 1950's and was written up in Time magazineIn Cold Blood. Monday, Nov. 30, 1959 (The book got its title from this). and the national press, so the articles could be expanded. I could support a merge to The Clutter family murders since their common fate is the basis of their notability, and the articles would be very similar.Inkpaduta 22:44, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- I think a merge to one article would be fine, but I question whether or not they are each individually notable enough to each have a separate article. I'm not questioning the notability of the crime, but simply of the individual family members. Natalie 23:07, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

- I don't see the need for a separate article on the murders. Otto4711 23:31, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

- Redirect all I merged the contents of all into the main article In Cold Blood (book). As each article was/is they have no chance of passing WP:N or WP:V (no references) the main article could use more work but would probably pass an AfD. Jeepday 05:03, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
