Two Fatalities?

Local news sources state that a second person has died at a local hospital after being in severe condition, dating to 5:25 AM this morning, [1] per shown in this article, can someone confirm this? Lolzer3000 (talk) 14:36, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The news site, Khaosod English, has retracted that claim, so the fatality count (currently) stands at 1. ~ KN2731 {talk · contribs} 15:37, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Coordinates

Can I add the coordinate/the specific location of the occurence? I have determined the specific point on the flight path where the aircraft made a rapid descend. BroBro1222 (talk) 16:53, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see why not. I am not an expert on this however. LouisOrr27 (talk) 19:29, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nationalities of passengers

I am quite puzzled as to why the information about passenger nationalities has been labelled as 'definitely not encyclopedic' and, more broadly, why large portions of my work have been removed, including various references. Could someone please provide guidance on this? Thank you, Redtree21 (talk) 15:30, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the list of nationalities: this information has absolutely no bearing on the accident. To help determine if something is encyclopedic, try the WP:10YEARTEST: would the information help someone reading the article 10 years from now understand what happened?

Regarding the reversion of your edits citing flightradar24, I suggest you read WP:RS. The ADS data that flightradar uses is probably "reliable" in the general sense of the word, but it is not a "reliable source" in the sense we use the words on Wikipedia, and definitely not a secondary source. A news article that cites flightradar would be a good example of the type of source needed. Rosbif73 (talk) 15:45, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Rosbif73:, thank you for your reply. I accept the explanations you have given here, although I do have to admit I still do not agree entirely with your rationale. It came to my attention that several other details, including references to proper tabloid sources and information about the aircraft, were removed (not necessarily by yourself, there were a few editors doing it) and the article became littered with citation needed tags and other inline tags. The decision by numerous editors to remove content was quite rushed in my opinion; once again, not your fault, just what happened. Hopefully through time the article's standard will improve as the element of recentism stops being a factor. Thank you, Redtree21 (talk) 15:55, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Casualties

30 people are listed as injured in the infobox but 32 are listed in the body with breakdown. Borgenland (talk) 16:35, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Storage

Is it really necessary to include the fact the aircraft was in storage, in my opinion it isn't really relevant. I removed it once but the wording was changed and it was added it back. LouisOrr27 (talk) 19:27, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
