Talk:Al-Noor Islamic Centre shooting

RFC: Merge proposal
Hello! I believe Al-Noor Islamic Center shooting is more reliable than Bærum mosque shooting for these reasons:

1) This article states that "The gunman killed a young woman before going to the mosque". There are no sources for this. However I write in my article the following: "A young woman was found dead in his apartment" from the Independent writing "Several hours later it was reported that a young woman had been found dead at the suspect’s home and that he was suspected of murder" . That is not the same as he killing her.

2) Article states "The gunman was later identified by a right-wing blog as Philip Manshaus, a 21-year-old Norwegian citizen" citing a blog which is unreliable.

3) "Hours before opening fire on the Al-Noor Islamic center, the suspect praised the Christchurch mosque shootings and the Poway synagogue shooting in a online post", again, no sources.

 * True. In addition it's illegal to reveal a person's identity before the police and official medias have done it. --Snorken123 (talk) 13:31, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I will merge the contents of Al-Noor Islamic Center shooting into the Bærum mosque shooting page and create a redirect - there are multiple mosques known by that name, and there is at least some precedent for using city names. I feel that this move is uncontroversial. As for 's concerns, I will review the content and sources of all content. Kingsif (talk) 14:33, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

Much appreciated!
