Talk:Carmel Market bombing

Notability
The importance of this article is quite clear in my opinion - This is not a not a minor criminal incident only mentioned in some local news for a short while - it was a mass-casualty terrorist attack that took place in the heart of a central city in ​​Israel and was committed against a large group of civilians, which has left dozens of people injured and killed. The event received an extensive coverage in the mainstream media at the time like all the other major militant attacks carried out against Israeli targets during the Second intifada militancy campaign. In addition, it is worth noting that the terror attacks which occurred during in the Second intifada had a significant national impact on Israel and on the Israeli policy regarding prevention of potential terror attacks.

 * I doubt about the notability due to the low number of victims. There are so many attacks in Israel, against and by Israelians, that I consider 4 fatalities not as notable. Night of the Big Wind  talk  14:45, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Notability is not the same as "importance". In Wikipedia notability is based on reliable sources discussing the topic. The number of casualties is irrelevant. This event received extensive coverage in the mainstream media worldwide, as evidenced by the following sources: Haaretz NY Times, Historical dictionary of terrorism - Page 539, Country Reports on Terrorism 2004 - Page 63, Arab-Israeli military forces in an era of asymmetric wars - Page 292, and more. These sources should be added to the article. Marokwitz (talk) 18:01, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
 * And did all those papers had there own independent sources or do they all rely on the information offered by the same newsagent? Night of the Big Wind  talk  20:13, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

POV
I have tagged this article as POV, as it gives undue weight to the victims. Night of the Big Wind talk  14:43, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Are you suggesting any edits to resolve this problem? Marokwitz (talk) 17:21, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
 * At the moment I only suggest a complete rewrite. First we must see if the attack is notable at all. Night of the Big Wind  talk  20:17, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
