Talk:2018 Westminster car attack

== Salih Khater has been charged with attempted murder ... of civilians and police officers, the CPS are treating this case as terrorism - confirmed. Title needs changing to reflect Terrorism and page needs protection. ==

Looks like this page can finally find some sort of peace after the waves of reverts. The case is being treated as terrorism, a spokesperson for the Met Police stated. Reaper7 (talk) 21:12, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I note the BBC are still calling it a car crash. These charges remain unproven allegations, and the police have always treated it as suspected terrorism, so I don't think anything has really changed. Charges do not prove guilt, and policy requires that we don't imply guilt where it hasn't been proven. However if you want to propose a title, I suggest the WP:RM process. If you're going to suggest it's called the Westminster Terrorist Attack, I think I'll be opposing for the aforementioned reasons. -- zzuuzz (talk) 21:57, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
 * It is well sourced that this is a terrorism case. The page title has to reflect this.--Greywin (talk) 22:41, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Agreed. 'Car crash' is completely misleading. Reaper7 (talk) 13:36, 22 August 2018 (UTC)

No, they changed the allegation, although at the time it (terrorism) would have been current. Although it was not a terrorist incident, it was being handled as terrorism (and well cited so), thus you may proceed to dehumanize the driver by adding all sorts of terror-descriptors and include it to the List of terrorist incidents in London article, if you (plural) wish. Perhaps you should consider omission of "Sudan", in light of the wag-the-dog-film and Bill Clinton`s cruisemissile strike on generic pharma. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.94.204.10 (talk) 11:05, 25 August 2018 (UTC)

Page move
I've moved to 'car incident', the whole of coverage endorses that this is a suspected terrorist incident - it is not even notable if it turns out to be accidental. Pincrete (talk) 20:18, 12 October 2018 (UTC)

Donald Trump tweet
I do not think a typically belligerent tweet from the then President of the USA, being the only foreign leader quoted, more serving for his domestic audience need be included in the reactions to what was a specifically UK-centric incident. LessHeard vanU (talk) 15:37, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
