Death toll in 2011 Egypt protests

[edit]

Leading up to the protests, at least six cases of self-immolation were reported, including a man arrested while trying to set himself on fire in downtown Cairo.[1] These cases were inspired by, and began exactly one month after, the acts of self-immolation in Tunisia triggering the 2010–2011 Tunisian uprising. Six instances have been reported, including acts by Abdou Abdel-Moneim Jaafar,[2] Mohammed Farouk Hassan,[3] Mohammed Ashour Sorour,[4] and Ahmed Hashim al-Sayyed who later died from his injuries.[5]

The death toll from the violence had risen to 54 dead and 1,000 injured by 28 January.[6] As of 29 January, at least 102 people were known to have died,[7][8][9][9][10] many or most shot.[11] The dead included at least 10 policemen, 3 of whom were killed in Rafah.[7]

By 29 January, 2,000 people were known to be injured.[12] The same day, an employee of the Azerbaijani embassy in Egypt was killed while returning home from work in Cairo;[13] the next day Azerbaijan sent a plane to evacuate citizens[14] and opened a criminal investigation into the death.[15]

Funerals for the dead on the "Friday of Anger" were held on 30 January. Hundreds of mourners gathered for the funerals calling for Mubarak's removal.[16] By 1 February, the protests had left at least 125 people dead,[17] although UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay stated that as many as 300 people may have died in anti-government unrest in Egypt according to a report by Human Rights Watch. This unconfirmed tally included 80 HRW-verified deaths at two Cairo hospitals, 36 in Alexandria, and 13 in the port city of Suez, amongst others;[18][19][20] over 3,000 people were also reported as injured.[18][19][20]

[edit]

He has been rude to you, myself, Lihaas, Knowledgekid87, Silver seren, and others since he decided to edit the 2011 Egyptian protests. I have talked to the other users and waiting for them to respond. This has to be addressed in the next 24hrs. -- The Egyptian Liberal (talk) 12:25, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree frend.--Wipsenade (talk) 15:10, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

im really trying (ignored him on the talk pages latest squabble). His incivility and NPA goes on after warnings. He accuses me of "stalking"Lihaas (talk) 11:33, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
then why did you even bother to write a message, after which i responded in saying i have and am not getting involved with him. yet you continued editing a section in the middle of the page (that i only i actually recomennded otherwise) and then all out of the blue you go to admins? What was the point of your message then? hard to assume AGF then.Lihaas (talk) 16:58, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I mentioned him stalking you, the IP 94.246.150.68 is the major bad boy.--Wipsenade (talk) 17:09, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thats what i thought. i though we were making progress, but then why were the 2 of us also included in the admin complaint?Lihaas (talk) 17:17, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I beleave the IP to be a troll. Every one else just needs to be WP:CIVIL. WP:CIVIL is much less upsetting than an IP troll or bad guy--Wipsenade (talk) 17:27, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

he seems to be digging a bigger and bigger hole for himself on the wikiquette page..Lihaas (talk) 17:43, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree!Wipsenade (talk) 17:45, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

requesting you to change this on the page:
"Can our reminded them of WP:CIVIL, since my efforts have been to no use on them."

Re: "Stop catfighting..."

[edit]

Sometimes I wish wikipedia had a "like" button. Agree completely :) --Physics is all gnomes (talk) 15:29, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Egypt casualtiy table

[edit]

Saw on the talk page you tried to sort it, in this heavily edited page there are alot of edit conflicts. do you have a link to that page. id both work on it and support your version if you can point me to it.Lihaas (talk) 16:45, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's lost in the edit sea-!--Wipsenade (talk) 16:48, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I put all forms on my talk page above, so If I looked at my own page history.--Wipsenade (talk) 16:54, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

As the creator of the table, or something

[edit]

Could you take it down? I can't, because, it's protected. --94.246.150.68 (talk) 17:11, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

OK, untill it's confirmed in time by the BBC, UN, EuroNews, CNN, NHK, Ruiters, ect.--Wipsenade (talk) 17:16, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Also I'm pretty sure HRW will release a report with a lot of independly verified figures. --94.246.150.68 (talk) 17:28, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
:-)!--Wipsenade (talk) 17:32, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wipsenade, just wanted to check that you thought removing the table was the right decision. I haven't looked at the sources in detail so can't say whether its numbers are reliable or not, but I found the info useful and readable. If you're happy with it going then ignore me, I just fear this has been pushed into false consensus by one person's continuous arguing.--Physics is all gnomes (talk) 17:44, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Tempory peace keeper move. --Wipsenade (talk) 17:48, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Lol... you're doing better at this peacekeeper stuff than me. I have much to learn it seems. --Physics is all gnomes (talk) 17:54, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I do have Manic depression spells and dyslexia to, and that page is not my cup of tea.--Wipsenade (talk) 17:57, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, it's frustrating me a lot. I've spent more time trying to get consensus than working on the article today. Not sure what else to do about it though. --Physics is all gnomes (talk) 18:43, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
