why don't they just suspend all ferries until theyy find out what is causing all of the ferries to drown. it would be much safe for many people. and it would provide some sense of closure for the relatives of the people who have died in that general area. what is the official count for the number of deaths that have happened there? around 50,000? that is not good. i seriously suggest that theyeither shut them down or find out what is going on,because this cannot continue.

==article name==

All the other recent ferry disasters have had the name of the ship as the article name. Should this one too? --[[User:Grocer|Grocer]] 13:47, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

similar incidents

wasnt there an egyptian ferry that sank and like a thousand people died in february? also, didnt a saudi ferry sink on the other side of the peninsula not too long ago?

"disaster"?

Is the word "disaster" really NPOV? It implies something bad has happened. I'm sure most people will agree it is a disaster, but it's not so much a disaster for, say, people who had enemies on board the ferry, or people who believe that the human race should be culled.

I suggest the word "incident" instead, as that's neutral. But since I'm likely to get opposition i'm not going to make the move yet.  -- Run!  17:32, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, the title is not neutral. How about 2006 Djibouti ferry accident? I'd go with incident as you suggested, but that seems slightly more ambiguous. KI 19:18, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, accident seems more appropriate. I don't think anyone will object to that. I'll do the move.  -- Run!  20:40, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Although the original comment is one of the most stupid comments I have ever heard (ie culling), disaster means; An occurrence causing widespread destruction and distress; a catastrophe. --Dem 01:58, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The human race has also caused widespread destruction and distress. Doesn't make it a disaster. Or does it? Depends on one's POV.  -- Run!  11:16, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

suspend all ferries

why don't they just suspend all ferries until theyy find out what is causing all of the ferries to drown. it would be much safe for many people. and it would provide some sense of closure for the relatives of the people who have died in that general area. what is the official count for the number of deaths that have happened there? around 50,000? that is not good. i seriously suggest that theyeither shut them down or find out what is going on,because this cannot continue.

what are you talking about? There weren't 50000 people on the ferry.  -- Run!  23:17, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

article name

All the other recent ferry disasters have had the name of the ship as the article name. Should this one too? --Grocer 13:47, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
