• Speedy Delete and Protection Looks like a terrorist grown article, and appears to encourage such acts.--Andeh 23:02, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy delete and protect from recreation per Andypandy.UK. --Arnzy ^{(whats up?)}
  • Er, what? I think this assertion needs a bit of elaboration, I don't see either of those things. Also, what criteria of speedy deletion does this supposedly fall under? And why protection, when there doesn't seem to be any past deletions and recreations of any sort? Bryan 00:50, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
    • It gives specific instructions and ideas such as places where to bomb.--Andeh 10:00, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
      • I take it you mean the line "He or she often strikes at the most crowded places including buses, discos, hotels, shopping centers and restaurants." I find your reaction truly bizzare, this seems like a simple and extremely obvious observation. Where else would a terrorist strike, a deserted place? This sort of "instruction" would only be useful to a would-be bomber who's too stupid to tie his own shoes. Bryan 07:03, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and merge with suicide bombing. The references show it's not a neologism, but I doubt it's worth a separate article. Homicide bombing has had a similar redirect done already. Bryan 00:50, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
• Smerge to suicide bombing per Bryan. The "speedy delete" comments don't make any sense to me. Grandmasterka 03:18, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
• Merge as above. Yeah, its a new phrase, but its about the same thing as "suicide bombing" has always meant. So it can go in the same article. -- GWO
• Merge per Bryan--blue520 12:08, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
• Merge as above. Metamagician3000 12:34, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - covered by suicide bombing. --Runcorn 17:01, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
  • A redirect would be useful in that case, which is incompatible with deletion. Bryan 07:03, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect per Bryan. The speedy delete comments seem nonsensical to me as well. -- Docether 18:05, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
