  1. Halimede (mythology). I chose this one because Greek mythology is one of my interests.
  2. I know this is a stub artcile because its so small and lacks a good amount of information. I also know because I found this on a page dedicated to Wikipedia stub articles.
  3. Something that is missing on this page is Halimede's origin. This is something that is typically present on other articles about greek mythology, as its a very big part of the gods and goddesses reasons for what their the god/goddess of. Something else that is lacking in this article is images of physical artifacts that represent the goddess. I think this is because her role was overshadowed by the existence of the sea-god, Poseidon.
  4. What is listed in the refrences area is the citing of sources used to write this piece. The hyperlinks are still working.
  5. As previously mentioned, one of the missing pieces in this article is images of artifacts, but also, just a lot of information about her is missing. For example, in Athenas wikpedia article she has subcategories covering epithets and tributes, her other names, and religional cults.

Article 3) The Amityville Horror

Historical basis

[edit]

On November 13, 1974, 23-year-old Ronald DeFeo Jr. shot and killed six members of his family at their home. They lived at 112 Ocean Avenue, a large Dutch Colonial Revival house situated in a suburban neighborhood in Amityville, on the south shore of Long Island, New York. After a trial lasting seven weeks, DeFeo was convicted of second-degree murder in November 1975 and sentenced to six terms of 25 years to life in prison. DeFeo died in prison in March 2021.

In December 1975, George and Kathy Lutz moved into the house with their three children and dog, Harry. After 28 days, the Lutzes fled the house, claiming to have been terrorized by paranormal phenomena while living there.
