Talk:Toulouse chemical factory explosion

message: This article currently says:
:"The disaster caused 30 deaths (28 from the factory, one lycéen — secondary school/high school pupil — from a neighbouring school)..."
28 + 1 = 29, so where does the 30 come from?
I just checked the NYTimes archive; the article "French Search for Cause of Chemical Plant Explosion" (September 25, 2001) says:
:"The blast left 29 people dead, at least 10 missing, and injured more than 2,500..."
Should the 30 in the article be changed to 29?

thread_title:  Number of fatalities? 

message: French Wikipedia and the report of the ministery of ecology both speak of 2500 wounded (about 30 of them seriously), not 8000+2500 as the article says. Where does the latter figure come from? As long there's no source for the 8000 I'll change it to match french Wikipedia. --dingensfünf 23:18, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Number of victims 

message: Would it be wise to split the article into a page about the terrorist group, and a page about the factory? Although they are related, they do deal with entirely different topics. Jem 12:02, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Article Split 

message: There is a huge difference between the reported size of the crater on the French and the English Wikipedia. Compare :
* 20 to 30m deep, 200m diameter (en)
* 5 to 6m deep, 70m by 50m (fr)

thread_title:  Depth And Size of Crater 

message: The following does not appear in the document cited in "Report of the General Inspectocorate [sic] for the Environment: Accident on the 21st of September 2001 at a factory belonging to the Grande Paroisse Company in Toulouse" and requires a citation.
:Specifically it is believed by mandated official experts that "a mislabeled 500kg bin of sodium dichloroisocyanurate mistakenly thought to be ammonium nitrate was dumped in the off spec ammonium nitrate warehouse. Here under sufficiently hot and humid conditions it could have reacted with the ammonium nitrate to form nitrogen trichloride which is an exceedingly unstable compound. The decomposition of the nitrogen trichloride could have provided the heat and pressure required to detonate the ammonium nitrate which when used as an industrial explosive typically requires detonators.
