Talk:Deal barracks bombing

There is a clear guideline on Wikipedia about the use of the word Terrorism. Please read it before editing.

Location

I think I've added the coordinates (via the {{coord}} tag at the bottom of the article) to the right place - it certainly looks like some kind of garden next to a lone wall, just north of Canada Road. Could someone just check that it's in the right place? And if possible refine it, I understand that the garden isn't quite where the bomb went off. 86.27.171.145 (talk) 09:23, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

Not musicians

John Bowyer Bell's "The Irish Troubles" says on page 781 "The one big incident in 1989 was the bomb in Deal Barracks in Kent that killed soldiers", even if the British media labeled them teenage bandsmen". It is inappropriate to try and impose the point-of-view that the British media sought to impose, so I have reverted the change. O Fenian (talk) 18:45, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

Incorrect Cat

The University of Leeds has a School of Music, as does Liverpool, Bangor, East Anglia, Cardiff and so on. But an attack on them is an attack on a university, not a school. It's not called the Deal School Bombing, it's called the Deal Barracks Bombing. It's totally misleading to include it in a category like the one disruptively and repeatedly added, especially as it's a sub-category of Category:Crimes against children which doesn't apply.

See school. A university is a school – just one that's commonly called something more specific – and in the absence of a "university bombings" category, an attack on, say, the University of Leeds would also be a school bombing. It's not called the Deal School Bombing as it wasn't an attack on something called Deal School, it was an attack on a school at Deal Barracks. — Jon C.^ॐ 15:23, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
