Talk:Serial Killer

A few points
Just a few things I'd like to point out regarding the article: first, the Etymology section suggests that "Vardewulf" was an early German term meaning "werewolf" that was used to describe pre-modern serial killers. The section also states that "some" sources are in dispute of this. If that's true, I'd like to see these sources. As it stands now, the assertion that "vardewulf" means "serial killer" is vague and without context... Is this statement implying that this term literally was used to describe human serial killers, or is this just the theory that tales of werewolves, vampires, and other "monsters" were really just pre-modern serial killers? I think this should be elaborated on.

My second point is that the article states, under Definition, that a serial killer "must" kill in different locations. While some serial killers do do this, and exceptions are brought up, it still sounds fairly narrow to suggest this considering the concept of "comfort zones" and that many serial killers target specific areas. (Unless this point is suggesting serial killers don't kill at the same park bench every time, in which case the definition should still be expanded to be more clear on this)

Finally, David Berkowitz is listed as an "Organized" serial killer. Going by the listed criteria of an organized serial killer, I think it's fairly obvious he is not of this variety. His own page on this wiki and other articles suggest he is Unorganized. Jackal Killer 03:22, May 6, 2010 (UTC)
