[edit] Wrong name
His name was Ronald, not Robert. This page is nonsense. Kelisi (talk) 01:27, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
- It is not nonsense, although it was erroneous and much better for your correction. For good or ill given the criteria for speedy deletion guidelines, nonsense is imbued with a specific meaning on Wikipedia. Here the article is a small bio stub that minimally establishes the required notability.
- Per edit summary remarks, the writer of the article didn't use the Turpin reference. Rather, I added it to clear an unref tag. It came directly from the (first modified) Lucas page linking here, so the original naming error went unnoticed by me. It is true that the original author of the article(s) could, and perhaps should, have left off the last sentence about the criminal code as off-topic. I had no strong opinion and left the sentence as wikified for others to remove or keep as they felt appropriate.
- As another edit idea, perhaps Turpin and Lucas could be merged to the same article with naming redirects, since being the last people executed is their sole apparent significance. There is little difference between the two articles and even a published book on the topic mentions both in the title. -- Michael Devore (talk) 06:33, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
