{{edit semi-protected}} I beleive it is beneficial for readers to add the following to external links http://www.jack-the-ripper-tours.com It is a walking tour that is both educational and fun managed by Ripping Yarns of all the Jack the Ripper murder Scenes.

I understand the case of the murders in America, and the above chap, being linked to the Ripper murders are weak; howeverhe does seem to have been made popular via the web and TV docs. Would it not be worthwild to add in a line naming him as/in connection with the American killings described? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.8.192.142 (talk) 00:21, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

He has been given mention on the suspect page.

Popular culture

I know this is a featured article and trivia section and such are not encouraged and i know that the article Jack the Ripper fiction exist but even so, why it was eliminated the "in popular culture" section?, i think like 3 years ago according to the talk section archives, does the Jack the Ripper fiction article cover that?, should the section be added again?, Should and article be created?.

No, it shouldn't. If it isn't worth placing in Jack the Ripper fiction, then it's probably cruft and doesn't belong on Wiki. Do you have something particular in mind that you are thinking you would like to add?

I had but, after going thru Jack the Ripper fiction is more than enough, i like "in popular culture" sections and articles, with small unimportant mentions in them, but that`s just me. Zidane tribal (talk) 16:58, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Further information.

It is a known fact of when the murders started and when they ended. The very first "Ripper oriented" murder was committed August 31st 1888, and the very last known murder was on November 9th 1888. There was 5 murders in total. Beginning with Martha Tabram and ending with Mary Jane Kelly.

Furthermore, not that I saw much information about it, the murder sequence was Martha Tabram(No age given), Mary Ann "Polly" Nichols(Age 44), Annie Chapman(Age 47), Elizabeth Stride(Age 45), Catherina Eddowes(Age 46), and Mary Jane Kelly(Age 25).

All known victims were all alcohol abusers, except for Mary Jane Kelly. Also, Mary Jane Kelly was the worst murder out of the five total prostitutes murdered. Her body was the only one that was brutally disembodied in an inside area. She was found on her bed in her house with a nightgown on. Her intestines were strewn around by her head, her throat was slit so bad that there was even slash marks on her vertebrae. Most of her organs and her breats were in piles beneath the bed and slabs of her own skin was on the nightstand above the bed. Jack also took part of her heart and it was shown that an axe was used in the murder.

I just feel that this article should be a little more in depth with things because when you go and look at the articles about John Wayne Gacy and Charles Manson there is in depth things about specific people that stood out in their murders. Even though Jack the Ripper has never been identified it only seems fair that the people he killed as well as the way they were murdered is shown. Gratned also, he only killed five people.
