To-do list for Homicidal somnambulism: edit · history · watch · refresh

Here are some tasks you can do:
  • Requests: According to one web page I found, there have been 68 such cases in all. If you know of any, please write about them and include references
  • Expand: Expand writing on existing cases

To the editor: I tried doing just that--and my contrubution was expunged. I added eight names of people who killed in their sleep, along with the way the law dealt with them, citing as my source The Book of Lists 3. As I observe it, your invitation to readers to contribute to this "stub" makes no sense considering what I added that was removed. Dougie monty 20:54, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

I originally created this article. For now, I have brought back your writing. It could use some more clarity. If you can detail these cases in a style similar to the two that are listed, it would be more likely to stay. Tatterfly 17:58, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

I have added details in three of the eight cases that were in The Book of Lists 3. I hope this is what you meant; if these prove to be satisfactory, in terms of clarity and detail, I will add details for the other five. Dougie monty 06:56, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

And now I have added detail for the other five cases I mentioned above, and included the name of the contributor to the Book of Lists 3 as acknowledged in the volume itself. Dougie monty 06:29, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I very much appreciate you writing about these cases you know about in an effort to expand this article. If you can separate each case under a different heading, just like at first it says "Lowe case" and "Falater case," that would be wonderful. Tatterfly 14:27, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Well, there you are. I added headings, though I think they should be subordinated to the main heading introducing them as from The Book of Lists 3. But I don't yet know that much about entering subheadings here. Dougie monty 07:04, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

You did a great job. I made some minor changes to help realign things. Tatterfly 17:32, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
