The consensus of reliable sources describe the incident as "terrorism"

... next to the Deutsch border[edit]

Benjamin Herman, the perpetrator of Liège shooting, murdered with a hammer a heroin addict in eastern Luxembourg, next to the Deutsch border. Oh, dear.

The Hague incident[edit]

An IP (whom I just blocked for disruption) has been inserting a stabbing incident in The Hague in which three people were hurt; the cops shot him in the leg and arrested him. Yes, reliable sources say the man yelled "Allahu Akbar", and yes the police say they knew the man as mentally or emotionally unstable, having exhibited confused behavior before. So far the only sources calling this a terrorist incident are absolute rags like this one. Do not add this until we have much stronger sourcing--and those sources should be more neutral than De Telegraaf. Note that so far not even that paper called it terrorism.

Flensburg knife attack[edit]

No terrorist motive confirmed. An argumentation ended with an escalation, when an asylum seeker from Eritrea stabbed his fellow traveler and an intervening police officer. Please do not add incidents rashly. Thanks! Sokrates2987 (talk) 19:02, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nicaraguan protests[edit]

@Tetsou TheIronman: You haven't explained the difference between violent protests/riots/vandalism and terrorism. It should also be explained why the protests againt Daniel Ortega's government are considered "right-wing extremism", a statement that, I should add, is unsourced. I provided a link by Freedom House that explains how protests are being criminalized and called terrorism, a pattern that as I have explained before, has also happened in Venezuela. If you want to add the information again please support the arguments with further references, so far the fact that is clear is that an arson incident occurred in the mentioned date. Anything beyond that is original research. --Jamez42 (talk) 23:48, 5 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Jamez42:Hi, i will keep search links that sustain the incident since that's where i based for add to the list. On the other hand i think we should leave the incident, since the suspects so far have charges of that crime, the property attacked is belonging to a state communication network, and at the time of the attack there were workers in the building, and there is no other way that another suspect guilty until proven otherwise. I agree to change the name "Far right extremist" to "Violent protesters" or other — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tetsou TheIronman (talk • contribs)

@Tetsou TheIronman: Thank you for your reply. Please try to find verifiable references independent from the Nicaraguan government or its supporters, such as NGOs. If it is polemic to describe insurgent groups such as ETA, the IRA or the FARC as "terrorists", you can imagine how difficult it could be to mention protesters, let alone that don't belong to any definied group. Per WP:LABEL, I would strongly recommend not to include the incident and to consider other better lists, such as List of riots. --Jamez42 (talk) 12:26, 7 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Jamez42: Thanks for the answer, I will keep looking and adding more incident, but with more rigor when adding links
