Was a massacre, not an "attack"

The event described in the article was a massacre, of many dozens of people, not a mere "attack" in some military sense of ordinary human groups fighting with weapons. I would imagine WP:COMMONNAME will indicate the article should be renamed. Let's not treat the denizens of Haiti differently in article naming then we would the denizens of any European or North American village who were similarly massacred.

I agree with @N2e. This is a massacre and should be documented as such. MexFin (talk) 06:45, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
