Comments

edit
  • Column 'D' is deaths. Column 'I' is injured. When 'I' is not given, this only means unknown to the writter, nothing more.
  • Column 'src'
value none means that the writter has not found references in the main List of human stampedes page. If you see better, you are welcome !
value wp means that an English Wikipedia page exists (and contains the references).
otherwise, gives the language of the external source used.
  • Column 'cat'. Obvously, an editorial choice.
value 'stam' means that stampede is the key word in the source used (i.e. the wp page, if any)
value 'none' means that either no source was given, or was not in English
otherwise, gives the key word of the description
  • Column 'w' contains "A" or "B" according to some geographic categorization of the crowd crush. Should be non-controversial. On the other hand, pretending that 'w' is a racial parameter is controversial (unless a cross-study event/source is undertaken).
  • Column 'note' only contains a working comment. Change it at will, but don't be longer than 130 char. The shorter the better.
