Hi - I'm going to remove the alleged perpetrators from the template except for Babbar Khalsa and Parmar. One of the others redirects to the wrong person. The others will redirect to the main Air India Flight 182 article - a historical decision on Wikipedia. Canuckle 06:18, 23 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I"m actually reverting, not only will individual articles on the suspects be made, but otherwise you are giving the impression that there was only one suspect. Sherurcij (Speaker for the Dead) 14:43, 23 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It predates my time but there did use to be individual articles on the chief suspects and the decision was made to have them redirect to the Air India Flight 182 article. It may be wise to discuss your intentions first to be sure that your effort doesn't get wasted. I do think that individual articles on the suspects could be beneficial, however I suspect that the previous decision was that people notable for one event should be rolled up into the event article as much as possible. I'm not a fan of having bad or confusing redirects in place in the hopes that an article gets written someday (I've left a few of those around myself) but I get your point about the perception of a single suspect. However, we most certainly shouldn't libel the current India PM Manmohan Singh just because he has the same name as a suspect. Canuckle 17:06, 23 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
