Talk:2008 Bathurst Boys in Red accident

message: I have stated both CBC and CTV articles at the bottom of the page. Are they not reliable? --Kuzwa (talk) 17:45, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: (edit conflict) They are reliable, yes. Inline citations would be nice, they are pretty imperative on these breaking-news type stories. On the other hand, Wikipedia is not a news service, and I am not sure about lasting notability of this incident. Maybe it deserves a mention on the article on the school, but I am not convinced about it having its own article. On the other hand, maybe this is a more serious incident than it appears- yes, it's tragic, and yes, I am sure it will make local and probably national (though I doubt international) news, but does it really warrant an encyclopedia entry? I think not. J Milburn (talk) 17:51, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

text: Ok, I have watchlisted the article. I will reassess it in a couple of days- I may take it to AfD or not, depending on how much attention the story seems to recieve. J Milburn (talk) 17:55, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

message: The CTV article states that the female teacher that was killed was the driver. While the CBC article says she was the wife of the driver. Can anyone clarify? Was she not the specified driver but was driving these people? --Kuzwa (talk) 01:24, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Why does the name have "tragedy" in it? Is it the commonly accepted name for the incident, or is only the "Boys in Red" the common name? Why don't we have "Boys in Red incident" or "Boys in Red disaster"? I hesitate about the use of the word "tragedy" - We do not use that word to describe other negative incidents and with other malicious people. Why is the word used in this incident?

replies: text: I'm not totally opposed to switching the article name to Boys in Red accident or Boys in Red incident. I'd hesitate to use the term "disaster" though it's true that many news sources have called the crash such a thing. According to an historical survey  a disaster is defined as a "single event, occurring at one time (no more than the order of a few days), within Canadian (and Newfoundland, before 1949) territory out to the 200-mile economic zone offshore, in which loss of life was 20 or more persons." I therefore assumed that disaster in the title by a Canadian context would be a little extreme. Anyways discuss. --Kuzwa (talk) 11:52, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The article has now been moved to Boys in Red accident. --Kuzwa (talk) 04:51, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

message: Do we really need that picture of the destroyed vehicle there? It seems insensitive to me. --Quadraxis (talk) 23:15, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

message: At the direct request of the main author I have skimmed the article and put a copyedit tag on it. If no one else copyedits it within the next seven days I'll do it myself. It's already rated as a Good article so it shouldn't need much work. DQweny (talk) 22:25, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The article was copyedited by the original author with some input from me, and the copyedit tag removed. DQweny (talk) 18:54, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks. I think that minor cleanup is really all that is stopping this article from FA. Thanks again! =) --Kuzwa (talk) 19:00, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Request for copyedit

message: This needs some context: the cause of action isn't explained in the relevant section, and neither plaintiff is mentioned anywhere else in the article, so the reader can't infer anything. Steve Smith (talk) 00:35, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: To be honest, no one in this province understood why they were suing at all, it's almost as if they didn't have a reason. --Kuzwa (talk) 22:54, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
