Advocacy Groups

I don't see a need to place every group and their efforts top stop Morva's execution anywhere in the article. Their involvement isn't very notable either since these groups petition and write letters to the governor every time an inmate is close to their execution date. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:44:1:E237:1D14:B1CC:CDC9:E60E (talk) 20:51, 5 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Reverted some changes and added new information from press release

Reverted changes made to the legal procedure section NAMI and the ABA among others do not support every execution because not every prisoner is mentally ill. Also added information based on a news article released by William's lawyers recently. — Preceding unsigned comment added by VSCE1234 (talk • contribs) 15:55, July 6, 2017 (UTC)

Noteworthy article? Please tell me why

I'm wondering why this individual deserves such a comprehensive article. While tragic, all it is is a noted murderer who was put to death, which happens all day all over the world somewhere else. I would challenge any mention of him as not being encyclopediaeic, not even his acts Kb5694 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 14:55, 7 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
