 * Wikipedia should not jump to conclusions ungrounded so 'Shooting of Robert Fico' is the proper title. IHaveBecauseOfLocks (talk) 14:08, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I've had that redirected because it was still a one-liner and created about 10 minutes after I started earlier developments for this one. I wa looking through page curation to see if an article had begun before development. Dora the Axe-plorer (explore) 14:23, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

Time
Any word on the approximate time of the shooting? Borgenland (talk) 16:04, 15 May 2024 (UTC)


 * I've seen both 2:30pm and 2:50pm according to news sources. I don't remember which ones but if I find them again I'll put them here. Sadustu Tau (talk) 16:16, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
 * First report on here was 2:48pm local time, so probably a bit before that... Sadustu Tau (talk) 16:26, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I couldn’t research/edit much today since the hotel I’m at has a blocked domain. Borgenland (talk) 16:38, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Ah I see. Hopefully you'll be back to editing properly soon!
 * An editor in the edit history said yahoo says 2:50pm (here) Sadustu Tau (talk) 16:40, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Need to clarify also if Slovakia uses 24hr standard or 12, since this is Europe I’d be leaning to 24. Borgenland (talk) 16:43, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Slovakia uses 24 hour. Sadustu Tau (talk) 16:44, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
 * This one says shortly after 2:30pm, so doesn't seem like there's an exact time yet. Sadustu Tau (talk) 16:43, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

Laundry list of leaders who condemned the shooting
Is there a protocol for condensing this to make it more encyclopedic? I don't think the reader needs to know each and every head of government who thinks that heads of government shouldn't be shot at. Having a list also creates a completionist look that will have editors searching to find the reaction of the President of Palau instead of information about the event and the perpetrator.

 * Probably better to move individual countries into a note and condense the main space into general condemnation by world leaders. Borgenland (talk) 16:37, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

Perpertrator name
Slovak media report about Juraj Cintula as being the suspect. See:, ,. --Pan Někdo (talk) 16:53, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

Undiscussed redirecting to your own article
@Lukt64 You are absoloutely not following proper Wikipedia procedure by emptying the contents of this page to transfer that onto your own page FYI Dora the Axe-plorer (explore) 20:34, 15 May 2024 (UTC)


 * @Zzuuzz Pinging you Dora the Axe-plorer (explore) 20:36, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Let's please not make it any worse by continuing the cut and paste move attempts. There's already at least one mess to clear up. Thanks. -- zzuuzz (talk) 20:38, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
 * By the time I moved the article, most sources had already described it as an assassination attempt Lukt64 (talk) 20:39, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
 * You are missing the point. WP:CWW WP:HM. Copypaste moves leave behind a complete mess. 20:42, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
