This article doesn't seem to be necessary. Most of the information is already in the main Jeffrey Dahmer article. Any non-trivial details can be added since the article isn't excessively long and hard to read. As @CJC-DI mentioned on the talk page, John Wayne Gacy (GA) does not have a separate article dedicated to his victims. Neither does Ted Bundy, also a GA. Both of the killers have even more victims.

Merge with
Jeffery Dahmer for reasons said above. No need for multiple articles describing the murders. Main article can always go into more detail. Quaemenelimbus (🗨 here) ^_^ 18:06, 28 October 2022 (UTC)[reply

Merge relevant information to primary article. The individual victims could have their own stand-alone article, if required. Seems to duplicate information. It's me... Sallicio!^{$\color {Red}\oplus$} 18:14, 28 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I could see keeping this if it was an extensive discussion, this is a brief mention of each murder. It's amply covered in the main article about the fellow. Oaktree b (talk) 19:11, 28 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The Dahmer article already covers each victim. CJC-DI (talk) 22:29, 28 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This article is incomplete, reads like a eulogy and what pertinent information it does contain is largely already covered within the Jeffrey Dahmer article itself. Delete as per WP:NOTMEMORIAL.--Kieronoldham (talk) 22:56, 28 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Entirely unnecessary
fork of an existing article. Dahmer is only notable for his murders and nothing else. The title has no value as a redirect; users who know Dahmer's name will find the target, those that don't won't be helped. SpinningSpark 14:04, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply
