Talk:December 2005 HaSharon Mall suicide bombing

Exploring article title change
Agree article title is clunky. Per parent article, this incident was actually the third suicide attack at this mall during the wave of such incidents in the early 2000s.

Parent article goes “1st” and “2nd” attack, which I think bears some importance merely because of the double targeting in one year. However, I think previous editor changes were going in the right direction with positioning of date (and reformatting of date styling).

That said, the bigger issue that needs to be addressed is general naming conventions across the category. Suicide bombings are a profoundly different category of conflict action than traditional bombings, and it seems to warrant a deeper discussion about preserving the inclusion of that in the title before simplifying it down to just a “bombing” (especially when there have been traditional bombings deployed in this particular conflict).

The double redundancy of the “suicide” usage in the article I think can be finessed. That said, probably best to start a new talk topic on the parent article and take this separate point from there. Re: this article, I propose “December 2005 HaSharon Mall suicide bombing” for the time being.

– Per WP:NCE and WP:CONCISE, and also going off the title of 2001 HaSharon Mall suicide bombing, which is another article on the same topic and location. Deauthorized. (talk) 00:19, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
 * 5 December 2005 HaSharon Mall suicide bombing → December 2005 HaSharon Mall suicide bombing
 * 12 July 2005 HaSharon Mall suicide bombing → July 2005 HaSharon Mall suicide bombing


 * Support. As far as I can tell there is no other bombing that occured in those months that would require the day to be in the name. Esolo5002 (talk) 03:42, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
