It seems that this article is suggesting that baby farming and dead babies is the pretty much one and the same thing, but when I read the article on baby farming it seems like a sort of "extended wet nursing" arrangement, or more likely a "get rid of kid born to the wrong father". Unless I'm mistaken, I think this needs to be made more clear before going up. Other than that it seems in reasonable shape, the images are all long out of copyright and properly tagged, and the article is new and long enough with reasonable cites including the hook.

The problem is that baby farming was like a service that some women did who took care of babies that was unwanted by their mothers. However it was very often that baby farmers atleast in Sweden per the sources included killed the babies instead of taking care of them. Just to earn money, while the mothers of the babies never investigated why their children disappeared forever. If you still find it unclear please contact me. Otherwise the article in my opinion is giving a correct view of this case. Regards,BabbaQ (talk) 22:16, 7 December 2015 (UTC)
Perhaps this is a language problem, but the lede statement "Swedish serial killer and baby farmer" implies murders and baby farming are connected, in the way "fish and chips" refers to a single thing. I'm going to go ahead and fix this. Maury Markowitz (talk) 12:41, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
I have corrected that issue, along with several others. Good to go now. Maury Markowitz (talk) 12:49, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
