Current consensus (October 2021):
Subject and title
The article title should be about the event and circumstances around the death of Gabby Petito and not "Gabby Petito" or "Gabrielle Petito" - Discussion
The article title should remain "Killing of..." and not "Murder of..." as per
WP:KILLINGOF
Lead
The lead sentence should use the full name "Gabrielle Venora Petito" and not "Gabby" as per
MOS:NICKNAMES
"Missing white woman syndrome" should be in the section "Media coverage and public interest" and not in the lead section - Discussion
Organization
There should be no standalone Brian Laundrie article or manhunt for Brian Laundrie article - Discussion
For the "See also" section, do not add "Missing white woman syndrome." The article is already linked in the prose.
This article has been viewed enough times in a single week to appear in the Top 25 Report2 times. The weeks in which this happened:
There should be an added subcategory that talks about the events leading to the killing. Laundrie was an abusive partner and she told the cops but they didn’t believe her. Laundrie used DARVO and claimed to be the victim when really he was the abuser. The public fell for it.
It is an important thing to add because only if the public has knowledge of this can they not fall for it the next time. And can they believe the victims and prevent a murder from happening. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.60.38.218 (talk) 09:08, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That is an idea not without merit, but domestic abuse and the responses thereto take many forms. I have noticed a marked dearth of commentary regarding her incessant nagging. That deserves examination. I concede dude’s response was wildly disproportionate. 2600:1700:726C:B000:5891:E290:5C83:BA12 (talk) 23:25, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"Nagging" is not abuse. "Nagging" is what misogynistic men call advice when it comes from their partner. They call it "incessant" when it doesn't just go away when they completely disregard it.
Even suggesting that this was a "response" (however disproportionate) to "abuse" is extremely inappropriate.

Numerous people, sadly many with agenda, do consider nagging to be a form of abuse albeit with a generally positive biological and social motivation. Anecdotally, I’ve been married. cf. Nagging2600:1700:726C:B000:D47C:E636:5B5D:7C40 (talk) 06:57, 12 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Gabby's last message
Did her last message to her Mom really state "no service in Yosemite" when they were in fact headed to Yellowstone? It is not supported by the referenced article. Alielmi1207 (talk) 17:44, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
