The section "Researched effects of media coverage" lacks some other worldwide known cases, e.g. Charleston church shooting (after American news outlets' excessive coverage of it, mass shooting and hate crimes skyrocketed), and the section "'Don't Name Them' Campaign" should be renamed "Countermeasures" and expanded, since it does not talk about campaigns to avoid sensationalism, extensive coverage, frontpage inclusion and photos of grieving families; it does not mention news media and journalists' awareness of mass shooting contagion (e.g. Mother Jones has established a guideline regulating reporting of mass shootings and Columbia Journalism Review's articles about mass shooting contagion, e.g. [1]) as well. --RekishiEJ (talk) 15:51, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
