Clash in the Class
Delete: I can find nothing that confirms this event ever took place. I can find nothing that even confirms the existence of the school where this supposedly happened. Further, the article implies that Siad Barre died prior to this event; he died in 1995, not 1991. He was deposed in 1991. I suspect this article is simply a hoax. --Durin 14:38, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete If there's real content, it could be in better chosen article like History of Somalia. But it's probably a hoax.  Friday 14:48, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

 * DO NOT DELETEBy voting for the deletion of this article you are insulting the lives of those who were killed that day. Some dates might be wrong but general story is probably correct. unsigned edit by 
 * KeepThe author says little known and as the history of Somalia is not exactly a topic many historians focus on it could be legitimate. Furthermore it could be one of many theories associated with the Somali Civil War's beginnings. unsigned edit by 
 * Seeing as you are most likely the originating author, perhaps you could cite some references by which we could verify the contents of this article? As noted above, I could find nothing confirming the event or even the existence of the school. According to Five pillars, "Verifiability, not truth, is the criterion for entry into Wikipedia.". Provide something by which we can verify this, or the article is most likely going to be deleted. --Durin 20:07, 15 July 2005 (UTC)
