Talk:Olof Palme

Lockerbie Connection?

Does this page pertain to the downing of the flight over Lockerbie, if so how? Robin (talk) 07:08, 21 October 2013 (IST)

I agree this pages crosses a line of credibility to most potential readers. It is one thing to present evidence of culpability for murder - labelled accordingly - and quite another to state it as fact. Intelligent readers are quite capable of drawing their own conclusions from properly marshaled evidence. Also, whilst there clearly IS evidence of Apartheid Regime culpability - or worse - in both the Palme murder and Lockerbie, use of categories to link them in this way is confusing and potentially off-putting. Far better to use Semantic properties which, although SMW is installed on WS, have hardly been used at all yet. --Peter P (talk) 08:00, 21 October 2013 (IST)

My point is actually independent of who killed Palme and why - unless the information presented on this page is directly related to Lockerbie, we're better off not having this in the Lockerbie category, since most site readers will choose a page from the category and expect content to be clearly and directly related to the category name. I agree on the problem of overfilling of categories - with too many pages in them, they become useless, as I mentioned in Category_talk:Lockerbie. Robin (talk) 08:51, 21 October 2013 (IST)

SMW Categories

Peter, SMW categories sound interesting. If you know this stuff, a short demo/intro could be good. Have we got a 'village pump' style page for such discussions? Robin (talk) 08:51, 21 October 2013 (IST)
