Talk:2004 Madrid train bombings

"Spanish nationals who sold the explosives to the terrorists were also arrested."
I just have to ask, do we really need 15 sources for that statement? Zazaban 06:21, 5 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Please look to the archived discussion to see how dificult is to say the truth in this article. The more evident issue have required months and tones of references.--Igor21 09:38, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

All three sources [10] [11] [12] that are now cited after " Although they had no role in the planning or implementation, the Spanish miners who sold the explosives to the terrorists were also arrested." do not mention any such thing, this should be changed.

2004 Madrid train bombings → Madrid train bombings – Per Manchester Arena bombing. Already redirects here. Unreal7 (talk) 18:10, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Support - No other multiple train bombings in Madrid. The July 1979 Madrid bombings didn't happen on trains, but train stations (two of them), and are far less known than the 2004 bombings. Prism55 (talk) 15:23, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose - "In the escalating violence, in 1979, one wing of the ETA bombed two Madrid train stations and the airport on the same day" ... but even without that, no benefit to any reader from removing year. In ictu oculi (talk) 17:00, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose essentially per IIO Red   Slash  05:50, 5 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose. As IIO says, this could be ambiguous. And although WP:CONCISE would suggest omitting the year, there are far too many examples of articles where it is included, and is useful, that I think it's fine to keep it. &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 11:58, 7 January 2020 (UTC)

How many days between Sept. 11, 2001 and March 11, 2004?
The article says 911.

My calendar says 912: 19 days to the end of September 2001, plus October (31), November (30), and December (31) makes 111.

Then all of 2002 (365 days) and 2003 (3)5 more days) brings the total to 841.

Then January (31) and February (29--a leap year) of 2004 brings the total to 901.

Then the event was the 11th day of March. That's 912.

Is there some Spanish convention at play here where you don't count the last day? Jeffreynye (talk) 16:19, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
