[edit] Copyvio
Publishing his entire lasst statement is probably a copyright violation. This setion should be trimmed to a smaller, highly pertinent extract of his statement only. Rmhermen (talk) 14:41, 20 November 2007 (UTC) |If it's released through state or federal channels, it may not be a copyright violation. In any case, I am removing it and replacing the section with a brief summary. Unfortunately, I don't know where to find a copy as a source.
[edit] Article Title
I searched for this article because of the demonstrations on the day of his execution. Gary Lee Graham may have changed his name to Shaka Sankofa, but the public knew him as Gary Graham. Noone will search for Shaka Sankofa. A search for Gary Graham brought me to someone else's article, and there is no disambiguation page. To get here, I had to find the "Death Row" article and go through the list of those executed in Texas to discover his full name "Gary Lee Graham" Deatonjr (talk) 19:41, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Article Origins
The article origins are from two different anonymous ip addresses from a couple years ago. Several sources seem biased. The title makes the article difficult to find. Websites that link here and people interested in the history of the Gary Lee Graham case will not know to search for Shaka Sankofa. Deatonjr (talk) 20:03, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Age?
The article states that he has born in 1960 and executed in 2000. If these two dates are correct, how could he have only been 36 (as the article also states) at the time of his execution? -- Entrybreak (talk) 20:19, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
