Caracazo[edit]

I restored the well-sourced information for Caracazo. It's unclear why it was deleted. --David Tornheim (talk) 13:14, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure if it should qualify as a "massacre", we usually don't describe government responses to protests as "massacres" barring pretty extenuating circumstances. Allan Nonymous (talk) 20:32, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You mean like the Boston Massacre? What do the sources provided say? We don't decide what it is, the sources do, right? --David Tornheim (talk) 20:52, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that it appears this should be included as there are a number of RSs using the word massacre for the many deaths during the protests. Have any RSs disputed the use of this term? BobFromBrockley (talk) 14:59, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(but I also agree with Allan Nonymous about the need for NPOV wording in the list.) BobFromBrockley (talk) 15:01, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
