Line 99:
*'''Oppose'''. Almost all of the articles about similar tragedies (this happens in Meccas somewhat often) use stampede. While "crush" may be scientifically more correct, that is not the term used in common parlance.[[User:Jdavi333|Jdavi333]] ([[User talk:Jdavi333|talk]]) 14:41, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
::"used in common parlance" - it cannot be common parlance after 3 days. You can use this argument if it common over the time and wiki article participate also in creation of misleading "common parlance". --[[User:geagea|geagea]]<sup>[[User talk:geagea|Talk]]</sup> 10:31, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
::: @Jdavi333, I support also changing the titles on all those articles about tragedies where it is not a stampede (and frankly most were not at all). [[User:Shuki|Shuki]] ([[User talk:Shuki|talk]]) 11:14, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
* '''Move''' to "Meron crowd crush". The article doesn't use the word stampede anywhere. --[[User:Bsherr|Bsherr]] ([[User talk:Bsherr|talk]]) 15:47, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
*'''Comment''' Some people have mentioned using "disaster" in the title. It doesn't seem very [[WP:PRECISE]], and most people aren't going to remember the exact year, making the year a less preferable main disambiguator from other disasters e.g. 1911. I wouldn't use "disaster", short of it becoming part of a proper noun [[WP:COMMONNAME]], which hasn't happened.—[[User:Bagumba|Bagumba]] ([[User talk:Bagumba|talk]]) 18:09, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
