This article is incomplete and has parts that should be rewritten. The Appearances section is poorly written and excessively detailed and should be shortened and rewritten. This section should also be divided into two(2) sub-sections, Film and Literature (the latter the character made an appearance in the novelization of the first film). The article is also missing information on the character's concept and creation which should be added to the article with proper citation given for its information. The characterization section should also be expanded (with proper citations). This article has potential, hopefully it gets the much needed attention it deserves.--Paleface Jack (talk) 15:51, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
So I've noticed that this article was renamed without any discussion, which is not recommended without having a proper discussion. Changing the name from Billy to Billy Lenz is incorrect since that is not the character's name in the original film, which is what the article is originally based off of. This name change is almost like changing the name of the Leatherface article to the character's real name in the reboot series. As such it should be changed back to its proper title since we are basing it off of the original (we can mention that the character is given a full name in the remake but changing the whole article's name to that of the remake character is really unnecessary.--Paleface Jack (talk) 18:17, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
