Incorrect Date Format Precludes Proper Sorting[edit]

Anyone smart enough on this to fix it? Thanks.Clepsydrae (talk) 23:03, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Bath School Disaster?[edit]

Why is the Bath School Disaster (aka Bath School Massacre) not included on the spreadsheet? It occurred on May 18, 1927 and the attacks killed 38 elementary schoolchildren and 6 adults, and injured at least 58 other people. I was going to edit it myself but opted to hold off in case there was a reason for the exclusion.

I'm adding this because I don't see a reason not to. @Unitednut AlaskaGal~ ^_^ 16:44, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is a school massacre, not a school shooting. In order to be considered a school shooting, shots must be fired on school grounds. History406 (talk) 13:16, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
