Q1: Why is this article called the "Bath School disaster"? Shouldn't it be called a "massacre" or maybe "bombings", "attacks" or something else?
A1: "Disaster" is a historic term in this title. "Bath School disaster" is what the event's survivors called it, as did contemporaneous news accounts, historic documents, state markers, and memorials. Dictionaries and other reliable sources include man-made disasters alongside natural disasters in their definitions. Note that this topic has been discussed on this talk page many times since 2008: here, here, here, here, here, and here. A 2014 RfC re: "Bath School bombings" or "Bath School disaster" resulted in a consensus to keep the present title of Bath School disaster. Please review these discussions and prepare new reliable sources for consideration before initiating a new talk page discussion. |

Recent edit
[edit]A recent edit changed all the URLs for the Daggy source from "usurped" to "dead". "Usurped" is the correct designation so I have reverted this change. If you disagree:
- Please see my Support re-direct comment in this talk page's Archive 2 at Talk:Bath School disaster/Archive 2#Proposed merge of Bath Consolidated School into Bath School disaster before reverting this url-status parameter back to 'dead'.
