I don't know how significant David Kozak's attack would have to be for him to have his own article since his legacy is thwarted by the large amount of mass shootings in the United States. Nevertheless, there appears to be a recent trend of giving perpetrators who don't kill themselves their own articles. Personally I don't think the articles should merge, the more the merrier. Hopefully this recent trend continues and Adam Lanza gets his own article as well. 2D Is Better Than 3D (talk) 09:30, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
First, I would avoid "surely" in Jackwagsy's comment. Secondly, 2D Is Better Than 3D says "trend of giving perpetrators who don't kill themselves their own articles", but he did kill himself... IMHO, did not he commit the shooting, he would not be "encyclopedically significant"... So I would be in favour of including this page inside the Shooting page; this is also what was done in cs:wiki... There seems to be a trend of no gloryfying these people.. that can be helped by not creating articles about them, unless (my opinion) they are somehow relevant for other reasons. So I would be in favour of merging this article into the article about the shooting (while keeping the wikidata item), but it is just my opinion (of someone who was indirectly affected by this accident...)... I will leave it on en:wiki community, but I am commenting on this because of the fact that the en:wiki is somehow global, not only for native speakers of English... --Pato Yapuq (talk) 23:06, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No, lol I'm was not going to ignore him because I support the so called glorification. I should have specified that David Kozak not killing himself and getting an article is an outlier. Anyways, more articles, woo!!! 2D Is Better Than 3D (talk) 08:27, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
