Talk:2006 Bangkok bombings

message: I don't think we should say the attack type was "political terrorism" until someone actually takes responsibility or until some evidence turns up.  It could be religious terrorism as well. Patiwat 20:10, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

message: UKWiki, Wisekwai, Patiwat, et al,
As it has been about 12 hours since UKWiki created this 2006 Bangkok bombings wiki, I'd like to take this opportunity to compliment you all on a fine job.  While others have made solid contributions, I note you three have been the primary contributors.
I've been on the web a couple times throughout the day, and have found it quite interesting how the wiki has tracked the events as reported in both the english-language, as well as the thai-language online sources.  I've hopped around a number of locations, in-and-out during the day, and just want to share my observation that the aggregation and organization that you've done here is really outstanding. 
<BR/>I'm looking forward to how this article takes shape as events unfound in the coming days.  - Thaimoss 04:05, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: No Australians have been killed or injured (thank god). And also, the injury count is now 36, not 20 but can't include it in the article. I don't have a source except for Seven News on the TV. --Lakeyboy 07:18, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Australians 

message: There is still a fair amount of uncertainty in the reporting about the number of explosions.  Most U.S. and international English-language sources such as CNN.com, FoxNews.com The Guardian Internaional(guardian.co.uk) are reporting nine explosions. Other press (including the  BBC article cited by User:Gotyear are reporting 8, as are most local (Thai language) reports such as those in the Thai Rath (Thai Rath; 01 January, 2007 @ 14:18 UTC/21:18 น. :  “ทักษิณ” โต้ไม่มีส่วนเกี่ยวข้อง เหตุระเบิด 8 จุดในกรุงเทพฯ  (Taksin disputes involvement in bombings at 8 points in Bangkok).  
I haven't seen any reporting about two explosions in one location, but am wondering about a confusion there.  Also, there are reports of an explosion at a mosque in Chiang Mai and I wonder if that one, in conjunction with the 8 in Bangkok proper, might be the source of "9". I'm not sure we have the final answer on this. - Thaimoss 14:40, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Number of bombs, explosions, locations 

message: I've made a sub-section called "Bombs" under the "Bombings" section.  This might be more appropriately changed into a "Forensic evidence" sub-section if more evidence is made public.  Patiwat 18:02, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Bombs/Forensic evidence 

message: It's tough to due a true merge, because the December 2006 Bangkok bombings article contains only one reference.  It might probably be better to just redirect December 2006 Bangkok bombings to 2006 Bangkok bombings.  Any other suggestions?  Patiwat 23:05, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah; I just created a redirect. There wasn't anything new in December 2006 Bangkok bombings. -- tariqabjotu 01:42, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Suggested article merger 

message: Not suggesting a change to anything here at this time, but think it might be prudent to eventually clarify or expand on the other "2006 Bangkok Bombings".  
<BR>At our current level of awareness, this reference can certainly only mean one thing.  However, we already make note here, which is good, of the August 2006 car bomb.  Within the political context that these New Year's day bombings might play out, there is at least one other reported bombing, that of Gen. Prem Tinsulanonda's residence on March 9th, 2006, in which a British tourist was injured, that might very well play into the "bombings in Bangkok in 2006".
<BR>I'll defer to Patiwat, Wisekwai, or some of the other primary contributors to this current article, as to how to best reflect these other 2006 bombings, but I think they do have a place. - Thaimoss 02:41, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: How about "December 2006/January 2007 Bangkok bombings"? "2006 Bangkok bombings" seems to be too broad and too narrow at the same time. AxelBoldt 19:59, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  August and March 

message: The Thai news reported this morning that the signatures found at the site of bombings is actually read as 'IRIE' means cool or very good in Jamaican language, not IRK or an Afghani terrorist group as thought. There's a gang member of reggae clique confessed to the news reporter (or to the police, I'm not really certain about that) that he himself is the writer of those signatures and he said he is not involved in any of the events that happen and said it's just a coincidence. There're also evidences that confirm the man's words as the signatures were written long ago before the bombings occur and there're also some witnesses told that they've seen a lot of these same signatures in many phone booths around Bangkok and some also said they've seen them at different regions of Thailand.
There're still no references or citation about this in the net, but These news are reported in many Thai channels (since the morning of 3rd Jan. 07 [BKK]) and should be considered to be add in the article. Kenneth Vergil 16:30, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  It's 'irie', not IRK as thought 

message: In the further bombings section, the first paragraph needs some attention. The version I see reads:
At 8.45 AM on 1 January 2007, a motorcycle rider threw an improvised bomb into a mosque in Chang Klan Road in Chiang Mai, injuring four people, including the Burmese janitor, Nasis Ahamad. The mosque keeper claimed that a grenade had been lobbed in, but an army bomb expert claimed the blast was caused by the premature explosion of a bomb being built by the mosque keeper.
The problem is that the first sentence reads as a statement of fact, but is then contradicted by the remaining part of the paragraph. Either a motorcycle rider threw a bomb or did not, but it can't be that he did and that Ahamad dropped a bomb. I suspect that this section needs to be revised to state that it was claimed that a motorcycle rider threw a bomb but that on further investigation it seems that something else happened. But I don't know the story and don't want to edit it since it could be wrong.

thread_title:  Further Bombings confused 

message: If you want to get GA, put the ref dates in a consistent format and wikilink them and also wait til you can legitimately get rid of the current event tag--that makes it not meet the stability requirement.Rlevse 19:42, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: GA tip

message: The press is now referring to the bombings as the "New Year's Eve" bombings.  I'd therefore suggest renaming the article "2006 Bangkok New Year's Eve bombings" to help differentiate it from the other bombings that occured in Bangkok in 2006. Patiwat 19:23, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Suggest renaming article 

message: I have passed the article according to the suggestions above, good job on fixing them so quickly. If you can, attempt to find out if Nasis is still in the hospital (it's been a month and a half now) and add any updates as necessary. Make sure the article keeps its high quality, adding all new information with sources. That was also good to go through and switch over all of the citation templates. Keep up the good work and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page. --Nehrams2020 19:32, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: GA passed

message: The latest investigations have revealed that, contrary to early speculation by the junta, southern seperatists were most probably behind the bombings.  When this becomes final, the earlier sections of the article will probably need a slight re-write. Patiwat 02:40, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
