`   Please change uncommunative -> uncommunicative.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by      == Jamie Doxtator ==  The victim listed here as Jamie Doxtator was referred to as James Doxtator during his trial (I downloaded/watched the Dahmer trial and it has genuine courtroom footage).  May I fix this?    :Wouldn't Jamie be a familiar form of the name James? Most sources refer to him as Jamie and honestly, I think it is fine as it is.     ::I think it could also be written as James 'Jamie' Doxtator.  I know this is used in some of the wrestling article for example, sometimes also with quotes around the common used name.  Just a suggestion.    == Understand  ==  I think people should try to understand Dahmer a bit more. Yes he did kill all those men but he needed company and he was lonely, he simply didn't want them to leave him and that doesn't make it right but he was seriously pshycologicly damaged.  I think it would be wrong to say ``why arnt more people outraged`` because what he did he thought was right. He was screaming for help as a child when he used to collect bones and the divorce of his parents didn't help at all; his father left and after a few weeks his mother went on vacation, and I'm sorry but and child even a murderer would feel neglected and even more lonely than they were through the divorce. so with this Dahmer could not develop social skills since there was no one to talk to which made him very withdrawn from the world and unable to communicate with other people. when he did communicate though all his guests had to leave and because he wanted them to say he strangeled them and kept their corpses for company. The reason he ate them was so they would become a part of him.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by   •    :I think that knowing what a serial killer did makes understanding that he was just lonely is very naive and far too simplistic. He did this whether he was alone or was living with other people. Most people in the world don't strangle and eat their visitors because they want them to stay, no matter how dysfunctional they are otherwise. He ate them because he wanted them to stay? Try to understand him a little less and see him as a psychopathical aberrant who needed to be stopped.      == Media portrayals  ==  I feel that there should be some mention under Media portrayals of Jeffrey Dahmer's character in the 2006 episode of South Park ``Hell on Earth 2006`` where he was portrayed as being sent by Demonius, alongside Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacy, to retrieve a ferrari cake in time for Satan's super sweet 16. I would do it myself but the semi-protection is stopping me, thank you. :Why? It's ultra-trivial. Stuff like that is why ``in popular culture`` sections have such a horrible reputation in Wikipedia. It's not encyclopedic content every time somebody makes a Dahmer joke.   |    ::I concur.    ::: I agree. —   Fair enough, I only meant to add it as South Park is a well known and popular show of the past 12 years so I felt that this reference would be culturally significant to the modern day portrayals of Jeffrey Dahmer. The episode also generated a lot of controversy on its release for this portrayal. But I can accept your comments and agree with them, thank you again for your time.    == Reduce the Sensationalism ==  ``By the summer of 1991, Dahmer wa
