Rename?[edit]

Wouldn't a more accurate name be "2023 Tempi train crash protests" FranklinOfNull (talk) 17:41, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Number/Lead figures for government side[edit]

The "Lead figures" (formerly)/"Number" (currently) field of the infobox states that the government's forces were 65000. I don't have full access to the citation used (https://www.lemonde.fr/en/international/article/2023/03/09/greece-train-crash-pressure-mounts-on-pm-mitsotakis-government_6018734_4.html), but the part of the article that I can read states that "...over 65,000 people took to the streets in Greece...". I don't know if further into the article it is stated that the Greek police has 65,000 officers, but it is a probable scenario. However, I also find it probable that the "...over 65,000 people took to the streets in Greece..." text was used by a mistake as a number of the first side's forces. If anyone has access into "Le monde" and can check it out, please comment below (and if needed also change the article). Michalis Vazaios (talk) 20:20, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merge[edit]

There is no need for two separate articles. Neither the size of the article nor the encyclopedic nature of the topic justify a standalone article. According to Wikipedia:Notability (events) D.S. Lioness (talk) 18:20, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"police brutality"[edit]

Such claims need to be taken with a huge grain of salt in Greece anarcho communist groups ALWAYS take part in protest ahd try to some how take advantage of the situation to advance their own ideological agendas and police brutality is one of their favorite tactics of propaganda 2A02:587:E805:6E18:95BE:BFE:149:5DE9 (talk) 18:04, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
