Somebody moved the page (I am assuming you are talking about the Trump rally shooting) and turned this page into a disambiguation page. :) SirMemeGod  22:21, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

Edit request

Please add the dates to the incidents.

• (13 July 2024)
• (15 September 2024)
• (18 June 2016)

It would help in later additions to the page when needing date-sorting. And to those who are unfamiliar with the locations. -- 64.229.88.34 (talk) 22:46, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

 Partly done: At least the month and year have been added for each attempt in Special:Diff/1249696252 by Wikishovel. There is no need to show the exact day of the month. GTrang (talk) 16:43, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

Requested move 11 October 2024

Attempted assassination of Donald Trump (disambiguation) → Attempted assassination of Donald Trump – The fact that the Pennsylvania article is located at Attempted assassination of Donald Trump in Pennsylvania rather than Attempted assassination of Donald Trump suggests that there is no primary topic. This will hopefully resolve the confusion raised at User talk:SilverLocust#Attempted assassination of Donald Trump (disambiguation).

• Support a disambiguation page. Attempted assassination of Donald Trump could refer to both the PA and FL attempts (although some may argue the PA attempt is PT because the former president was actually wounded in that attempt). cookie monster 755 15:25, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

• Weak oppose – upon further consideration, I do think that Attempted assassination of Donald Trump should redirect to Attempted assassination of Donald Trump in Pennsylvania, as former president Trump was actually wounded in this attempt but unharmed in the Florida attempt. It is not comparable to the Attempted assassination of Gerald Ford in San Francisco / Sacramento because Ford was not wounded in either of the attempts. cookie monster 755 15:34, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

• Support: per nom. C F A 💬 15:28, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
• oppose this doesn't need a dab per WP:ONEOTHER and vegas thing isn't called an 'attempted assassination' in the article—blindlynx 16:08, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

  That's a different question than what is being asked. If it isn't moved, then I do agree that it should be deleted per WP:ONEOTHER, but that's not really relevant to the move. C F A 💬 03:35, 12 October 2024 (UTC)

• Weak oppose. Per WP:NCWWW, including "when", "where", or "what" in a descriptive title for an event does not actually mean there is no primary topic for the same title with some of that information removed, provided the information is a "useful identifier". And the discussion in the requested move that this arose out of didn't really provide any convincing justification for there being WP:NOPRIMARY. That the page has been moved to a strictly longer title doesn't change whether there is a primary topic, so I still think that it satisfies both WP:PT1 (per CFA) and WP:PT2 (per CFA).

• Neutral point Would like to point out that this article/list exists and appears to be a better location to put all security related incidents without needing to have a disambiguation list that contains only security incidents classified as "assassination attempts"

• Support per nom. We can't have Attempted assassination of Donald Trump redirecting to Attempted assassination of Donald Trump in Pennsylvania because that would indicate "in Pennsylvania" was unnecessary disambiguation. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 14:57, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
• Oppose in favour of having both "attempted assassination" titles (with and without disambiguation) redirect to Security incidents involving Donald Trump, a set index article summarizing several security incidents which have been or could be described as assassination attempts. There is no utility to readers in having one list with all security incidents alongside another list with only some of the same incidents. Per the language in WP:G14, the set index would "perform a disambiguation-like function" even though it is not technically a disambiguation page. Support the move in principle otherwise. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 15:10, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
• Oppose per Ivanvector. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 22:37, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
• Support in principle. There is No Primary Topic, but I do agree with Pppery and Ivanvector that this list could be better merged into the security incidents article. I think it is best for two separate discussions though to avoid this one losing focus, but consider this as a pre-eminent vote to support merging Security incidents involving Donald Trump and this article into one, if such discussion comes to pass.

• Oppose per SilverLocust above. The rename of the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC was only to be more consistent after the rename of the other assassination attempt. That doesn’t mean that it isn’t still the primary topic and is only naturally disambiguating two events that could be easily confused with each other. The way it is now with a hatnote to the DAB page is the least confusing way of conveying information and directing readers to the correct article. cyberdog958^Talk 19:10, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
• Support as WP:NOPRIMARYTOPIC; we don't have enough long-term data to determine what will become the primary topic (I can assume it'll be the Pennsylvania incident but WP:CRYSTAL and all.) Move it and we can re-evaluate in 6 months to a year and see what the data supports as the primary topic. RachelTensions (talk) 17:03, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
• Oppose. Here in Australia, the Pennsylvania incident was all over the news, and heaps of people were talking about it. (As an immigrant from the US, I got plenty of questions about it from indigenous-born people.) On the other hand, I don't remember the Florida incident ever coming up in our news or in face-to-face conversations; all I saw was a few social media posts by Trump fans, questioning whether it were a real assassination attempt or a Democratic conspiracy. I just now looked for all of this because I was wondering if the Florida incident even had a Wikipedia article, or if it had been a minor enough incident that it would just be redirected somewhere. Nyttend (talk) 05:25, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

  This isn't a proper rationale to assert a primary topic (WP:BUTIKNOWABOUTIT) RachelTensions (talk) 08:16, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

  Did you read my rationale? It wasn't the subject of coverage in our news here, except maybe as a minor note that most people would have overlooked. As noted by the page you link, certain groups naturally see certain things as significant that are otherwise less significant, e.g. Birmingham covering the UK city despite many Americans being more familiar with Birmingham, Alabama. Maybe many American publishers covered both of these incidents equally, but judging by the Australian press, the Pennsylvania incident was easily the primary topic in international news coverage.

• Refactor. "Attempted assassination of Donald Trump" isn't an ambiguous name, but a generic descriptive phrase. As such, I can see three possibilities:
  1. Move the content to an "Assassination attempts" section on Donald Trump.
  2. Move to the title "Attempted assassinations of Donald Trump" and format it as a list/set index article.
  3. Move to the title "Attempted assassinations of Donald Trump" and restructure it giving a summary of each, with links to the main articles, maybe taking text from Donald Trump and/or the individual instance articles.
• Maybe we could do 2, with a view to expanding it to the effect of 3 later.... — Smjg (talk) 15:23, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
• Support. WP:NOPRIMARYTOPIC. Theparties (talk) 00:26, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Oppose The primary topic in terms of attempted Trump assassinations is obviously going to be the one where he was injured. The attempt in Florida was negligible and was unlikely to kill him, and the Las Vegas incident even more so. 2A02:C7C:2DCE:1F00:A17E:B543:281:C2BF (talk) 20:16, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
