Yeshivat Beit Yisrael massacreYeshivat Beit Yisrael bombing – The WP:NCE page title here should be of a 'bombing', per WP:NPOV and for precision. Nowhere does the page body use the term 'massacre', which appears to be a clear editorialization given that none of the source titles use such language, nor, AFAICS, do any of the bodies of the sources.

Comment Why do we need an RM for an obviously POV title not reflected in any sources? Selfstudier (talk) 12:39, 18 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Comment No English-language sources seem to refer to this as massacre. That said, this incident seems to be a bit of a standout for the sheer number of fatalities connected to a single family. (Eight of the victims were from the same family). Frankly, it’s an early internet story, so there aren’t many English language sources period. Will cross-check media in other languages, and in meantime, probably no harm to wait for other voices to chime in before initiating the page move.

  • Support "bombing" as it seems to be a descriptor used fairly often in the sources cited. Adumbrativus (talk) 23:58, 25 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
