Comments
[edit]- Column 'D' is deaths. Column 'I' is injured. When 'I' is not given, this only means unknown to the writter, nothing more.
- Column 'src'
- value none means that the writter has not found references in the main List of human stampedes page. If you see better, you are welcome !
- value wp means that an English Wikipedia page exists (and contains the references).
- otherwise, gives the language of the external source used.
- Column 'cat'. Obvously, an editorial choice.
- value 'stam' means that stampede is the key word in the source used (i.e. the wp page, if any)
- value 'none' means that either no source was given, or was not in English
- otherwise, gives the key word of the description
- Column 'w' contains "A" or "B" according to some geographic categorization of the crowd crush. Should be non-controversial. On the other hand, pretending that 'w' is a racial parameter is controversial (unless a cross-study event/source is undertaken).
- Column 'note' only contains a working comment. Change it at will, but don't be longer than 130 char. The shorter the better.
