No activity, and this article just doesn't make sense anymore after the move. Regardless, nobody seems to be willing to work on it.

Suicides for eviction in Spain[edit]

  • Comment: I ain't a native English speaker, so there may be some mistakes with my English. Please, correct them and tell me what did I fail in. :( Also, I don't know if I should link all of the sentence (in the hook). Nafield (talk) 08:21, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

I just added other two possible sentences for the DYK. Nafield (talk) 09:10, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
  • Hooks 1 and 3 appear to be contradicted by the third paragraph of the article, and if the Spanish national statistical agency doesn't think its possible to come up with reliable statistics on this matter I don't see why a lobby group's assessment deserves to be given much credence. Nick-D (talk) 10:49, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
National Institute of Statistics can't analyze those data because problems with the eviction law are something recent (lobby group Stop Desahucios is active since 2008, first national-level debates in 2012, last suicide rate data from 2007). Also, what about the 2nd hook? Any problem with the article? Sorry if my English isn't good. P.S.: Just added a 4th hook.  Nafield  (talk • contribs) 12:10, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
I've copyedited it a bit for you, but some of the "refs" are wordpress and campaigning websites, they should be replaced with more reliable refs. Valenciano (talk) 16:06, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
Well, I have removed the first 'verify credibility' since I found another more reliable source. As for the second one, I think it makes no sense. The PAH's (Plataforma de Afectados por la Hipoteca) statements are refered by the official web of the PAH, the Wordpress redirects to a .com webpage. Maybe it was their old site, when there wasn't that much coverage of suicides for evictions. Finally, what's the problem with the third 'verify credibility'? AlertaDigital is a realiable source.  Nafield  (talk • contribs) 20:11, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
P.S: I have replaced the 2nd reference. Nafield  (talk • contribs) 20:45, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
The concerns listed on the {{Orphan}} template need to be addressed, and the references need to be formatted more properly; use {{cite web}} and {{cite news}}, please. —♦♦ AMBER(ЯʘCK) 08:31, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

I have deliberately renamed the article to Suicide in Spain. Therefore, the article should broaden its scope of suicides in Spain. --George Ho (talk) 17:13, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

Are you going to work on it, George? —♦♦ AMBER(ЯʘCK) 17:57, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
