Shouldn't the article be called "Gerald Francis Ridsdale", perhaps with a separate page called "Gerry Francis Ridsdale" redirected to here? After all, that's his name. Wocky ( talk) 10:40, 4 February 2010 (UTC) reply

The name appears as 'Risdale' five times. 213.127.210.95 ( talk) 18:04, 28 February 2016 (UTC) reply

Hi Enthusiast01, may I ask where you found 79 as the number of Ridsdale's confirmed victims? The cited source gives a lower number, and the most recent source I can find ( [1]) gives 65. Adrian J. Hunter^{( talk• contribs)} 03:27, 31 December 2017 (UTC) reply

Now I'm not sure where I saw the figure of 73; but I'm sure I did see it. I found this article which comes to a count of 108, and counting. Enthusiast01 ( talk) 04:07, 31 December 2017 (UTC) reply

Enthusiast01 please try to respect text–source integrity. Adrian J. Hunter^{( talk• contribs)} 02:51, 23 January 2018 (UTC) reply
