[edit]

@NAADAAN tagging you because we were discussing this.

  • Academic discussion on what commonalities the manifestos have as a group - there's some in the article already but there is a lot of discussion on this topic, so having one paragraph of analysis is not enough
  • Within constraints of available sourcing, try to add for every entry a brief entry on what the perpetrator says in it, also under what circumstances the manifesto was released in (by perpetrator? by government? leaked?)
  • Better lead
  • Possibly add more on reaction/censorship/what effects these tend to have as a group, etc?
  • See if anyone is missing ig

I added a 'language' column because I think it's useful, also it's often discussed with the far right ones how they usually opt to write their manifestos in English despite not always being from native-English speaking countries. If someone disagrees we can discuss it. PARAKANYAA (talk) 04:24, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
analysis topics to cover
  • purposes in writing manifesto
  • are there any well known categories/academically accepted divisions of them or the like?
  • law enforcement response
  • censorship

when there's enough analysis i should probably just rename this "manifestos of mass killers" and keep the list at the bottom PARAKANYAA (talk) 07:14, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
