Aberfan disaster
There is no point in the empty section 'Aberfan'.

Regarding the Aberfan Disaster, it should be made clear that the Merthyr Vale Colliery was the nearest working pit, and that those miners immediately tried to rush to the spot, but were hampered by thousands of sightseers. Owing to the circumstances of the avalanche, however, only a few lives could have been saved anyway. Valetude (talk) 23:04, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
