Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of terrorist incidents in August 2016, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Palestinian. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Proposed deletion of Classification of terrorist incidents

edit
 

The article Classification of terrorist incidents has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

WP:INDISCRIMINATE listing of WP:ORIGINALRESEARCH

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. – Finnusertop (talkcontribs) 18:05, 20 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

August 2017

edit

  Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to List of terrorist incidents in August 2017. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. EvergreenFir (talk) 08:17, 9 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

This stuff is just ridiculous

edit

How brainless do people have to be to think that having a flag means that someone will think that that country is responsible. Not only is it pointless and accomplishes nothing, the article looks worst visually — Preceding unsigned comment added by HeinzMaster (talkcontribs) 00:24, 9 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

@HeinzMaster: That's what I've been saying. The article looks worse without the flags than with them. It's really only DeFacto that is against the flags. Everyone else is either against or just blindly following one side. StrikeDog (talk) 00:35, 9 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
