Talk:Anniversary of Tak Bai incident marked with lawsuits

Title
Can anyone come up with a better title for this? I can't see any easy way to incorporate the fact that the incident was in Thailand into the title without it being ugly. Brianmc 13:09, 24 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I think the title is fine the way it is. If people cannot associate Thailand with the Tak Bai incident, then they can always read the article to figure it out. --vonbergm 00:42, 25 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I agree... Unless the incident is particularly obscure or there are multiple Tak Bai incidents in several countries's there is no need. Do you need to mention UK in the title of references to the Birmingham riots or US in reference to articles on the Waco incident? 60.234.141.76 18:09, 26 October 2005 (UTC)


 * There's a Birmingham in the US as well, I don't know of another Waco so that might be a different issue where the country isn't important. As nobody objected to this going up as featured article there was "Thai" in the summary so it was no longer an issue.  I assume that when it goes off Featured people can assume "Tak Bai" is Asian in origin and read the story for further information. Brianmc 18:33, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

Background
Do you think it's worth mentioning the incident and especially Thaksin's rather offensive comments drew start critisim from countries such as neighbouring Malaysia and that the comments even further infuriated many (especially Muslim) Thais? 60.234.141.76 18:09, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Personally, no. There's already one point in the story where people other than the Muslims in south Thailand are not remotely happy about the incident.  Leave it to the reader to look at the article as a whole (including links to other stories on the topic) and think for themselves that the comment is utterly tactless.
