Criteria for inclusion

[edit]

If this is a list of shootings, should it not contain solely articles about shootings rather than include biographies of victims / perpetrators whose shootings do not have standalone articles? It's not called "List of shootings and shooting victims and shooting perpetrators in New York (state)" - Murder of John Lennon is appropriate for this list but John Lennon isn't, for example.

Oh, I have not given it much thought. I came across a list of shootings in California (or wherever) and built this list over an hour or so as a diversion. I am an inclusionist, so I suppose if we can in any way justify putting it on the list, we ought to. --PaulinSaudi (talk) 13:00, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
