List of terrorist incidents involving railway systems

Hi, I would like to clarify that the 2019 Yuen Long Attack in Hong Kong was not a terrorist incident; rather, it was a riot stemming from the 2019 Hong Kong Extradition Bill. The mobs involved in the attack were convicted of rioting but not of any terrorism-related offences. Below are some news articles for your reference:

https://hongkongfp.com/2024/04/05/hong-kong-accountant-found-guilty-of-rioting-after-yuen-long-mob-attack-in-2019/

https://www.thestandard.com.hk/breaking-news/section/4/192740/Man-arrested-three-years-after-Yuen-Long-mob-attack,-to-appear-in-court

In addition, the HKSAR Government has legislation regarding terrorism, which is specified in Cap.575 United Nations (Anti-Terrorism Measures) Ordinance. Below is the content of the ordinance:

https://www.elegislation.gov.hk/hk/cap575

As such, the attack was not a terrorist incident and it should not be included on the list. HelenRForeman (talk) 01:25, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The attack has been included in the article for as long as I can remember and I reiterate that only a consensus of the editors in the list’s talk page can remove the entry. Not a decision of the HK government. Borgenland (talk) 01:46, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have expressed my views on the list's talk page, but I have not received any replies from the other editors. Aside from the fact that the incident is not related to terrorism, the number of dead and injured shown on the page is also incorrect, as there were no fatalities. If there are no objections from the other editors, I will remove the incident from the list. HelenRForeman (talk) 02:18, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The lack of replies may not necessarily signify support for your proposition. And the faulty casualty list does not imply reason alone for the entry to be removed. Borgenland (talk) 10:15, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Older typhoon seasons

As a result of a message on my talk page. Me and Hurricanehink are trying to get people to help make older typhoon season articles. As you are a major contributor in recent typhoon articles, and other major typhoon articles, I think you might be interested in tackling this. Thanks, 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 04:10, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have sources on some notable typhoons from 1946 to 1998. Will check the relevant years. 05:00, 2 October 2024 (UTC) Borgenland (talk) 05:00, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Father of All Bombs

Thanks for removing that junk. It’s just likely a close up of a KAB-3000. I just can’t imagine such a weapon being deployed from anything short of a cargo plane. Jjmclellan82 (talk) 11:09, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's more of sourcing for me per WP:NEWSWEEK. The article also said it wasn't the first time Russia claimed to have dropped a KAB in Ukraine. Borgenland (talk) 11:12, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of explosions

I don't understand why you remove explosions from Poland, having sources and being relevant. For example the explosion in Gdansk in 1995 with 22 dead or Ĺšwiebodzice in 2017 with 6 dead, among others. However, for example, explosions in Italy that are not very relevant or similar in deaths are still included. List of explosions DWD2007 (talk) 14:38, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I carried out a cleanup of the page when it became bloated with entries of dubious notability, not just in Poland per WP:INDISCRIMINATE. For the second revert, you inserted poorly-sourced articles with utter disregard of WP:WINARS. For your latest entry, I did not remove anything but noticed that you do not take into account the grammatical style prevalent throughout the article, particularly having to bludgeon the name Poland when the flagicon suffices and inserting redundant death tolls. Borgenland (talk) 14:43, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I also recall you inserted a deliberate attack. But then again if you want to have these addressed, you should try to gain more opinions and/or consensus in the talk page. Borgenland (talk) 14:46, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I'll try to do better, thanks for the answer. DWD2007 (talk) 14:46, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi Borgenland. Thank you for your work on 2024 Turkish Aerospace Industries headquarters attack. Another editor, BastianMAT, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Keep up the good work!

Template:WikiProject Terrorism

Please can you stop adding this template to pages when {{WikiProject Crime and Criminal Biography}} is already present? Terrorism is a task force of WikiProject Crime and Criminal Biography, so it should not be added as a separate template. Thank you — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 17:37, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

With all due respect, wasn’t the creation of WP Terrorism supposed to mean it was already a separate topic in itself? Borgenland (talk) 17:39, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes it was originally, but since 19 October WikiProject Crime and Criminal Biography/Terrorism task force is a task of WikiProject Crime and Criminal Biography. There was a discussion on the talk page about this — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 17:44, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Andriy Kostin (That's the Way It Goes)

Thanks for your edit on Andriy Kostin! Much appreciated it is, but unfortunately not entirely correct. Kostin will be serving as Prosecutor General of Ukraine until the parliament of Ukraine will dismiss him. The fact that he tended in his resignation on 22 October 2024 does not mean he immediately left the post. This is the way it goes in Ukraine; I know it goes different in other countries, so I understand your train of thought. I hope this was the first time your train of thought was wrong. — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 17:27, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I understand the Verkhovna Rada ultimately decides on things. I’m just waiting for the approval to amend the info. Borgenland (talk) 00:29, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Constitutional Court of Korea History

Hey, I saw you added a paragraph to the History section of the Constitutional Court of Korea page. That bit seems more appropriate to be under the Criticism and Issues section to me, as it is somewhat tangential to the history of the Constitutional Court itself. What do you think? Motjustescribe (talk) 17:02, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I placed it in history because this is uncharted territory for the court. Usually criticism on such institutions are nominally for real cases of bad behavior or disfunction. For me however, the disfunction associated with the current event is tangential for the criticism section, citing my views in the first sentence.
