Excessive detail on the perp
It seems like there's excessive detail on the perp. It would be wise to following journalistic guidelines regarding such events, for example, "Give serious thought to the frequency with which you mention the shooter’s name. Stories of the victims should be given much more weight than the story of the shooter. We recommend naming the shooter “infrequently and only when only [the] name is critical to understanding the story." Bongolian (talk) 23:49, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I think this page should be moved to draft space unless you want to refocus this page on the victims. Bongolian (talk) 02:56, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure I understand. BJA2112 (talk) 03:47, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I think he deserves a page. But do you want me to add in more information on the victims? I mean, I have no problem with that or with moving it to draft. BJA2112 (talk) 03:48, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Basically, I think the page should either be removed or rewritten entirely. I seem to recall a discussion on RW about mass shooting incidents and how to handle them when creating pages about them. I can't place it though. The problem with the page as it is now is that gives too much focus on the perp, even to the point of being vaguely sympathetic (devoutly religious, mental illness, reliable worker, etc.) Compare your page to Christchurch terrorist attacks, for example. If you disagree with my assessment, we can take it to the Mod noticeboard or the Saloon. Bongolian (talk) 04:15, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I guess I didn't think about that, but when you put it that way, it makes sense. I'm not sure how to rewrite it, but you can delete the page if you want. BJA2112 (talk) 05:44, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I appreciate your seeing another perspective. Bongolian (talk) 07:06, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
