Comment – This will likely be posted as a blurb on ITN, therefore it will not qualify for DYK. Just giving a heads-up. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Thanks ♥) 18:10, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Video

Is it appropriate to include a video of the disaster ? Includes: possibly dead humans.

No, It will not be appropriate to add such video. - Mayankj429 (talk) 08:33, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mayankj429, Shanze1, can be used, with proper license. Such files can be seen used in My Lai Massacre, Ghouta chemical attack, The Holocaust and many more. Dey subrata (talk) 13:07, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As per the examples mentioned, this can be added then. - Mayankj429 (talk) 13:13, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Added it. Shanze1 (talk) 13:44, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nizil Shah The video is using proper license. Can you re-add it please. Shanze1 (talk) 13:52, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Shanze1, it has been added, he might not have seen the license, obvious from the TOI logo anyone can presume it to be copyrighted. Dey subrata (talk) 14:09, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Shanze1 and Dey subrata:, sorry, my bad. TOI logo fooled me. Thanks for readding.-Nizil (talk) 14:12, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nizil Shah, its ok. I myself was going to remove it, but then have seen the license at youtube. Anyway continue imrpving it. Dey subrata (talk) 14:17, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone point to where the license is? Somebody has tried to mark the infobox image for deletion too. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Thanks ♥) 18:28, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

There is a discussion whether to merge this article with another article Visakhapatnam Gas Tragedy. Abishe (talk) 12:25, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge: Without the year mentioned. This isnt any yearly, seasonal or repetitive event. so, no point of mentioning year. example- Bhopal Gas Tragedy ❯❯❯ S A H A 12:28, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge should be, Visakhapatnam Gas Tragedy to Visakhapatnam gas leak. The national and international medias called it leak not tragedy. And can be evident from the fact that the death is very low. Dey subrata (talk) 12:50, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy merge : Visakhapatnam Gas Tragedy to Visakhapatnam gas leak, as it is been called gas leak commonly and the second article on same incident makes no sense.- Mayankj429 (talk) 12:59, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy merge - why keep duplicates? And this article is better... RedBulbBlueBlood9911 (talk) 13:02, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Done Speedy merge completed. -Nizil (talk) 13:18, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Edit conflict

@Dey subrata and Mayankj429:, please stop editing for a while //in use// notice is displayed. I am updating the article and your edits causes conflict for me. Thanks,-Nizil (talk) 13:49, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nizil Shah, I am not doing anything conflicting, but you surely have done something incorrect. If something is wrong, it should be corrected, ain't it? Bdw no one is stopping you from amkign the article better. I am just checking the details what has been added and removed. Dey subrata (talk) 14:12, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just commenting. The //in use// tag means no one should edit the article as long as that tag is on. Only the person who added the tag should edit the article. Now if the tag is on more than an hour, then I would say it is ok to edit. Elijahandskip (talk) 14:20, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Duplicates of Cause of Leak

The subsections 'Investigation' and 'Facilities and leakage' capture the same info. My opinion is that no definite cause of the leak has been found yet, so all reasons regarding the leak are just initial speculations and should be covered under the 'Investigation' sub-section. Any thoughts? --Zack3142 (talk) 02:56, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
