Very little detail about Sheila Eddy in this article. I'd rather have a dedicated article with information on Shelia and perhaps let this article be a subsection of that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FB90:9CF4:C581:8319:4E9E:598A:7B7A (talk) 08:11, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
Blogs aren't considered valid references by wikipedia, so I removed the reference to the blog.

I removed the added reference to the second suspect. Her name has not been publicly released as her case is in juvenile court. A blog is not considered a reputable source. If there is an actual newspaper article or something that names her, then it can be included, I believe. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mafh01 (talk • contribs) 05:03, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
Editors, please do not add the name of the second juvenile suspect unless you have a reference in a reputable source to back up this name. A reputable source is a mainstream newspaper, or even a TV news report. A blog is not a reputable source. 64.181.114.4 (talk) 20:18, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
A drug has been mentioned. I am not sure that such a carefully planned crime was consistent with drugs. The name of the other girl is easily available with a Google search. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.166.170.49 (talk) 15:43, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
I think her actual name is "Shelia" but news articles are calling her Sheila.
These news articles say "Sheila"
These news articles say "Shelia"

As currently written, the article uses the Shelia spelling, but if there is definitive evidence that it is the other way, we can change it. Unfortunately, I don't think Wikipedia considers the testimony of friends/family/or even the subject themselves to be authoritative. It has to be something citable.

Here is her mugshot. The paper she's holding says Shelia. I consider that to be fairly authoritative in case someone questions it. Bali88 (talk) 20:29, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
The trial of Shelia Eddy is expected to start on 22/10/2013. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.183.73.93 (talk) 14:59, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
I removed the Missing white woman syndrome page from the "See also" links. Skylar does/did not have saturated media coverage and her case is not an example of missing white woman syndrome. Createastorm (talk) 16:33, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

I sorted and formatted these two sections. I wonder if the two books that now remain in Further reading are books that an encyclopedia would refer to. Without comment I will remove the section entirely. A review would be helpful in evaluating.
Likewise the the website published by Sandt. Is this what an encyclopedia links to? Pretty sure not.
I also formatted both sections. 18:28, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
Can someone link those? 2601:8C:487E:89E0:FD12:F370:585A:EE8B (talk) 23:13, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
