Like I've said several times on these boards, I'm putting together a Wikia page for listing, describing and posting updates to ALL the UM cases. I'm getting through to listing all the cases for the series plus separating them by case type plus cross-referencing them by year,location and themes. So far, I've listed all the cases I've saw entirely entirely from the series (only about a quarter from the entire run of the season - that's an average of five segements an episode for 300+ episodes). Anyway, anyone is welcome to expand on the cases already there or add ones I've not included, but there's several segments from the series I have not discovered the original airdates for (I don't cover repeats). Can someone give me the original airdates for:
Interstate 70 killer - murdered Robin Fuldaver, Patricia Smith and Patricia Magnum among others Gary Magno - con-artist and phony faith healer Jay Durham - motorcyclist cripplied by truck drivers who drove over him Benjamin Austin Baker - lost brother of Lois Baker Lane, adopted to another famy, UPDATE found in Everton, Washington The Port Chicago Munitions Mystery Jim Burke - lost father of Bill 0'Neil Neil Jennings - murdered Odessa, Texas man, body found in trash fire Larry Costine - murdered rancher near Lakeland, Florida Sandra Lee - The Smoker Car Baby, searching for parents Kerry Culberson - murdered by her boyfriend, body unrecovered Edmonton rapist - murderer of Corrine Gustavson Dr. Arvind Sinha - wanted for six counts of rape Pennysylvania bank robber - shoots out cameras at robberies Donald Smith - vanished while traveling with golden retrivevers, body found Twin Falls, Idaho, car found in Denver Tony Lombardi - murdered Westerville young man found shot David Viera - murdered wife Alice Viera, Update: found in Montreal Charlie Anderson - LA police officer shot in his own home Elizabeth Bersanetti - seeking her lost father Judy smith - newlywed vanished on Philadelphia trip, body found Asheville, NC Attackers of Sara Powell near Clearwater, TX Amadeo Marcelo - missing American son of Fawai Mahmud of Jordan Anita Green - shot in parking lot by motorcyclist hired by husband Melanie Uribe - missing Los Angelos nurse, body found lopez Canyon, Update: solved by psychic Etta Smith, real killers in prison Margaret Murphy - lost sister of Francis Murphy Eve Miezel - Austrain childhood friend of Eideen Murphy from St. Helen's Convent of Mercy Armando Garcia - rogue Miami officer, Update, found in Cali, California Matt Orashake - wanted in murder of David chase Richard Bare - wanted for murder of Sherry Hart, her body tossed off NC cliff Wanted: John Hawkins, UPDATE caught in Sardinia Ed Baker - murdered millionaire found burned in car Charles Morgan - murdered while wearing bullet-proof chest Wanted - Strip mall rapist Michael Hughes - missing son of Sharon Marshal Tina Jefferson - body found murdered near schoolyard Steve Hadley - robbed a million from a credit union Lost: Theresa Rose Walsh Eric Rudolph - bomber 1996 Summer olympics, Update: Caught Murphy, California Wanted: Samuel Lee Glover Wanted: Marshall Kirkpatrick The Unsolved Mysteries Wikia http://unsolvedmysteries.wikia.com |

Thor, on your wikia pages it will allow me to edit and make changes to the body of the text.
I just played around in there without creating an account or actually changing anything, I just used "preview" rather than actually trying to change stuff. Anyhow, the reason I'm mentioning this is that Ethel Kitt is actually spelled Kidd, so that would need to be changed in the body of the text as well as in the actually heading of the page. If I created an account with wikia, would it give me full editing priveliges needed to make a big change like that, or only enough to contribute to the content of the page? |

I don't believe the Kerry Culberson case was ever profiled on UM.
I have a list of many NBC episodes that I have with airdates. You might find some of those segments on there. Let me know if you'd like me to send it to you. |

I applaud you for doing this since it would be the best way for people to get all the info on each case now since Cosgrove/Meurer are closing people down from selling bootleg discs and posting on vid sites and since Spike keeps pulling the new "and improved" UM.

On www.findcarrieculberson.com on the updates page 3 I found this:
Feb. 21, 2003 - Lifetime Television for Women will be airing a show regarding Carrie's disappearance at 8 p.m. The show is called Final Justice and is hosted by Erin Brocokovitch. I could have sworn that I'd seen carrie's story on UM, too, but maybe this is why Thor and I thought is was a UM segment. It was on lifetime and we just got confused. Edited to add that on updates page 2 there's this info: Wed, May 25, 2005 - AETV's American Justice airs the long awaited segment titled "Where is Carrie Culberson". |

Thor, I went in and corrected Su Taraskiewicz's spelling of her name in the body of the text, and also Ethel Kidd. I think I might register an account with the site there and help out with your info, if you don't mind.
I figured out how to correct the first page showing their names where it links to their articles, but then by changing the spelling of their names, it erases the whole article! Why does it do that? Okay, editing again to say that I completely fixed Ethel Kidd's page and when I get more time (dinner right now) I'll go fix Su Taraskiewicz's page. |

And yeah, the spelling is off here and there. I didn't have the luvury of DVR when Lifetime ran the series so I just jotted and described the cases as extensive as I could get into a spiral notebook when it ran. I never even got to see the Spike episodes plus everytime AMW or Forensic Files mention a case that was on UM, I added it to to the list. Kerry Culberson, I don't recall it on UM either, but there's A LOT of cases I don't recall and several I can't find in the series list that I know I got directly from Lifetime. The reason for this is: I either got names that don't match, I got names not in the resource or the resource got a reference wrong (Orange County guard not Orange County employee). Anyway, I am open to extra editors as long as they already understand what I'm trying to do and can continue using the templates and themes I'm already using, but there's always room for improvement. I'm a writer, not a web-designer! |

Since I culled info from three separate episode lists, I'm sure there's mistakes in it especially since I listed cases by separate names. Dave Davis under Wanted and Shannon Davis under Murder, but the two are cross-linked. the list probably needs to be updated or at least proofread |

I really like the idea of cross-referencing certain cases that were featured on other TV programs such as 48 Hours, Forensic Files, Cold Case Files, etc. I wish you luck on this project.

Well, that wasn't my original intention, but, yeah, down the line that could be done because as big a wealth UM has on unsolved cases, it's not infinite, and subsequently, ever case could get covered and then what, cross-referencing them would could link two cases that COULD be related!

Thor, I added some info on your page about Kristi Krebs. Since I'm laid-off at the moment, I have time to watch the DVDs.

Thor, on the section of the page where it gives the victim's name and location, do you want the DATE to be the date the story aired on UM or the date that the crime occured?
