__TOC__

"Bundy literature"

The article currently contains 3 references to pseudonyms of real-world figures used in "Bundy literature," but nowhere explains what "Bundy literature" is or why it would involve pseudonyms, nor is the term "Bundy literature" linked to a different Wikipedia article that would explain what is meant by this term.

Assuming that this means fictional works based on real-world events, I would propose that these references be deleted: this is an article about real-world people and events, and it is inappropriate to reference imagined scenarios, characterizations, etc. in that connection.

At a minimum, I would propose that there be an "Impact" or some such heading added at the end of the article that could list inter alia ways that Bundy's crimes impacted police investigations, prosecutions, ongoing legal issues related to his crimes, and, yes, the spawning of "Bundy literature" and its relationship to true crime media. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PatheticPeon (talk • contribs) 01:36, 22 June 2025 (UTC)

Reference #329

The reference to Ted Bundy's last words seems unreliable because it's not from a primary source. I know that the exact same phrase appears on the same Grunge site and there are no errors, but I think it would be better to change it to make it clearer.

I found two primary sources from the same day Ted was executed: one is from UPI (United Press International), and the other from the Los Angeles Times. And there may be others. MomosAngel (talk) 01:44, 30 June 2025 (UTC)
