# Talk:Lovas killings

Image:UCK NLA.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Given this has been here over a month and you are such a prolific GAN reviewer, I'll overcome my usual reticence to review  1990's Yugoslav wars articles. Will get started shortly. Cheers, Peacemaker67  (send... over) 04:46, 30 April 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for taking up the review. I copyedited the lead as suggested.--Tomobe03 (talk) 16:45, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Regading the number of deaths - The sources I managed to find indicate a total of 70: 22 during the initial assault, 23 more between then and the minefield deaths, 1 on the way to the minefield and 21 in the minefield itself, plus 3 more after that. That's 22+23+1+21+3=70. Regarding the number of exhumed bodies, out of 68 exhumed from the mass grave, 2 were not from Lovas (unfortunately, sources such as this one do not indicate where exactly they were from). A possible "lead" is given in this source (used in the article) which says that out of 9 sets of remains exhumed in Jelaš Forest, only 5 have been identified and 3 out of those were military and that the graves contained remains of residents of Lovas and Tovarnik (a nearby village). I found no similar details on the ten individual graves (regarding possible identification o the bodies buried there), but it appears that at least two out o three burial sites were used to bury not only those killed in Lovas but also some civilians and military killed elsewhere. Now, there appears to be no source directly offering such an analysis, so perhaps it would the best to rephrase the relevant bit and say that the victims were among those buried at these three sites. Thoughts?--Tomobe03 (talk) 17:31, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
That would be fine. Peacemaker67  (send... over) 03:42, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
I tried to convey this message in the aftermath section - Could you please take a look and see if I managed or fumbled that? I also edited the article to address your concerns raised in the review.--Tomobe03 (talk) 12:20, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
Missed that one, thanks for pointing that out - should be reodered chronologically now.--Tomobe03 (talk) 14:43, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
Well done, good article. Regards, Peacemaker67  (send... over) 15:09, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

Is this a WP:UCN title or a descriptive one? I couldn't find the phrase "Lovas massacre" in a Google Books search, and only one hit in a 2008 B92 article, so it seems to be a descriptive one (albeit based on a source). In which case, "killings" may be more appropriate per WP:NDESC. Thoughts? Peacemaker67  (send... over) 07:15, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

No idea to be honest. My search turned up the same results in English as you indicate. I simply left the article title as it was, not being sure what to do about it. I'm fine with "killings" instead of "massacre".--Tomobe03 (talk) 16:33, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
I think it's best to use a neutral description unless a non-neutral title is the obvious common name. I'll move it to "Lovas killings" after the review is completed and the bots have done their work. Cheers, Peacemaker67  (send... over) 00:02, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
