Talk:List of 21st-century explosions

Standardisation of Layout
The layout here is very odd for no apparent reason. There is one table covering from 2001 - 2010 (with no heading), another table with a different width covering from 2011 - 2014, and a third table with different width again covering from 2015 to today.

We need to standardise. Either we put everything in one big table, or divide things along easily comprehensible lines (such as by decade) with headings on each section. Plus the tables should be all the same width, probably the same as List of explosions & List of 20th-century explosions.

Criteria for inclusion? (also: Philadelphia Energy Solutions refinery explosion)
What is the criteria for inclusion here?

The Philadelphia Energy Solutions refinery explosion in June 2019 (https://www.csb.gov/chemical-safety-board-releases-factual-update-and-new-animation-detailing-the-events-of-the-massive-explosion-and-fire-at-the-pes-refinery-in-philadelphia-pa/; with video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2kCwNKEFBY) was notable and widely reported, but it's not on the list. Also, to my knowledge, it doesn't have a wikipedia article either.

I was going to add it but there were no injuries or deaths in that accident, so I'm not sure if it actually belongs on the list or not, since all the other incidents listed involved casualties.

Is this list reserved for incidents with casualties? If not, is there any reason not to add it to the list?

RfC: Merge into List of explosions
I think this article should be merged back into List of explosions as I have yet to see any rationale for the list to have gotten split into three separate pages to begin with. This article has 44,611 bytes of markup compared to the other's 6,408 bytes, though that figure was 4,368 bytes before I restored the 20th century entries after the List of 20th-century explosions page was deleted. - MrPersonHumanGuy (talk) 14:52, 12 September 2020 (UTC)
