I think that this information would be better placed in the George Tiller article, as it is already, until there is coverage of Scott Roeder beyond his name and the fact of his arrest.

As per WP:ONEEVENT, rather than having a seperate Scott Roeder article at this point, it might be better to merge this article into an article called something like Killing of George Tiller. And since there is more currently under the death by shooting section of George Tiller's article than there is in the rest of the page, maybe most of that information should also be merged into Killing of George Tiller. Then on the main Tiller page, there can be a brief summary of the most important information, with a link to the main article about the assassination? Any thoughts on this idea? — Hunter Kahn _(c) 23:16, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds emminently reasonable; I second this suggestion. If no one else shows up, please go ahead! ↜Just M E here , now 23:47, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'd support this, but as of right now, I'm formatting the references on the article. Would it be too much of a hassle to wait? If the most of the content is merged, properly formatted citations are easy to just transfer over. Lәo_(βǃʘʘɱ) 23:49, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it's a problem. How long a wait do you think you need? — Hunter Kahn _(c) 23:59, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done, as of now. Lәo_(βǃʘʘɱ) 00:03, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I made the change. — Hunter Kahn _(c) 02:00, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
