Talk:Kattankudy mosque massacre

A leap in logic
Furthermore there is a leap in logic here: How can the expulsion of Muslims from Jaffna be the background to this incident ? The expulsion after all occurred later in the year. I'll wait a day to much like the previous user before doing anything about it. Reading all the sources, I think to be as NPOV as possible we need mention LTTE is the alleged culprit with attribution to the source. It can't read in a monotone as it is now.

Citations needed
Good job rewriting the article. There is one small problem here. There are no citations to news sites but the link to them is missing. Can the rewriter please add proper link to the citation given ? If this is not possible, then can you please give a ISBN or something else where the information can be checked and/or used for further editig on the article? Thanks.


 * If this is not possible please add other citations and remove sentences that are not backed by RS. I will wait a while before adding the citation needed and other relevant tags. Watchdogb 13:15, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Kattandakudi massacre1.jpg
Image:Kattandakudi massacre1.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Gory Images
Here is the list of images in the article, I frankly don't see need for all of these images in an encyclopedia which will be visited by an audience with wide age group. This should be discussed and decided as to what image is most relevant to the article and what else is unnecessary. Sinhala freedom 23:34, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Step 1 - As these pictures may have Copyvivo issues, I suggest we put them up for XFD, after that if they survive then
 * Step 2 - Ask for RFC
 * Step 3 - Go for mediation. We did all these for other gory imgaes in Sri Lanka civil war page, did just Step one for Mary Madeleine page.Taprobanus 11:46, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Additional information is removed
Whenever I add new, cited information, a user keeps removing them stating that I have not cited the information when, in fact, I have. This user has already been given warnings for edit warring. How can this issue be resolved? SinhalaLion (talk) 12:28, 30 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Report edit warring at the Edit warring noticeboard. El_C 12:30, 30 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Well, I've done just that, and you rejected my report. I don't mean to be rude, but it would have been nice if you hadn't advised me to make the report only to reject it. SinhalaLion (talk) 02:46, 2 May 2019 (UTC)


 * I didn't merely reject it — I specifically instructed SLInfo to stop edit warring and join this discussion. El_C 02:51, 2 May 2019 (UTC)
