Why is mine engineer Selwyn M. Taylor "well-known"?Jtyroler (talk) 10:56, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to include a sentence along the lines of, "This was the Xth worst coal mining disaster in the 20th century." The article originally made an erroneous claim that it was in the top 10 coal mining disasters ever, which wasn't even true for the time period let alone today. From what I've seen online, it definitely will rank in the top 20 or 30 coal mining disasters and it could be in the top 50 mining disasters. (These are rated based on total deaths.) If anyone can find a comprehensive list of mining disasters to properly reference, please add it to the article.Gtwy (talk) 09:03, 24 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
