Shouldn't there be Categories for Hi-Fi Murder victims and survivors?

Question

Walker-42185 was a victim.

Walker-42176 was a survivor.

The Hi-Fi Murders has a WikiPedia Page.

Comments

The Wikipedia thing is really just a loose guideline for who is or is not notable. I've never heard of the Hi-Fi Murders so perhaps it shouldn't be a category, however, a free space with the background, a list of victims and survivors, and other information (links, etc.) sounds like a great idea. You could start one.

As far as I'm concerned, WikiPedia isn't a guideline for anything, except whatever malarchy morons want to promote or knowledge they want to suppress - Fake News/History, but I've seen that a lot of people on WikiTree rely on it, so I thought I'd throw that out here. My apologies; I won't make that mistake again.

Thank you for the suggestion! I made a Free Space for the Hi-Fi Murders at:

https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Space:The_Hi-Fi_Murders&errcode=new_profile

I tagged that free-space with Category:Crimes of the 20th Century.

Answer 1

Well, there is [[Category:Murder Victims]].

Comments

What about survivors of a massacre?

Well, I don't think we need a category for "Murder Survivors." First off, if they are murdered, they are not survivors. This particular person is a victim of attempted murder. You could probably have a category for the Hi-Fi Murders and just use that category on ALL of the involved persons. Then on the victims who died, add Category:Murder Victims and on the criminals, add their category for murderers.

Answer 2

just looked that up in Wikipedia, doesn't look like there are a whole lot of people involved, either as victim or criminal, not worth a separate category I think, some of them might still be living also.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hi-Fi_murders

Black Sheep project has the relevant categories that exist.

None of the seven people present at the Hi-Fi murders are alive. 

The two perpetrators have been executed. 

Three of the five victims were murdered, including Stanley Walker-42185; his girl friend and fellow Hi-Fi employee, Michelle Ansley-468; and his friend's mother, Carol Naisbitt Petersen-4365. 

Only two people survived: Stanley's friend, Cortney Naisbitt-57; and Stanley's father, Orren Walker-42176. Cortney died on June 4, 2002, in Seattle, King, Washington. Orren died February 13, 2000, in Ogden, Weber, Utah.

Black Sheep project covers your people, both criminals and victims, and has categories to fit each one.  Not necessary or desirable to create category for 7 people I don't think.  Talk to that project about this.

Well said, Danielle. There is a category for murder victims, but this particular person survived it, so he doesn't fit with murder victims.  Maybe we need a "crime victims" category, but that, as you said, would fall to the Black Sheep project to figure out.
