...came to the Floods in Afghanistan page, because of the present, 2024 Afghanistan flood reports... Someone already hastily (and IMO sloppily) started a 2024 Afghanistan-Pakistan floods stub. So while this is an annual event, sadly, there are numerous annual pages. I would like to clarify the existing formal issues on the child pages (stubs) named in the List of Floods in Afghanistan:

• Shouldnt these annual event stubs be named uniformly? For example plural versus singular etc
• Shouldnt they be created separately for Afghanistan and Pakistan -or together as occurred in two cases: 2013 Pakistan–Afghanistan floods?
• or: If there is as little editorial attention to these pages as it seems,(probably also lack of subsequent reporting about the event) shouldnt the info of these pages be better presented in a table?

Before starting an RfC on Talk:Floods in Afghanistan I am posting this here and on the respective Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Afghanistan and Wikipedia:WikiProject Weather/Floods task force pages in the hope that someone comments. Wuerzele (talk) 09:19, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Looking for a bit of thoughtful targeted feedback rather than calling an open RfC.

Talk:List of mass graves in the Middle East #Should this be the region or global?

The more I think about it, the more I think I should start global and then split it if it gets too big? MWQs (talk) 08:18, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is a formal invitation to help build out the new WikiProject Risk, which has significant overlap with this WikiProject. Due to the breadth of the concept of 'risk', many articles that have broad applications are silo'd into specific subjects. Those interested in the generalization and proper organization of risk management principles on Wikipedia may find like-minded editors there. Tule-hog (talk) 23:12, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dear all, this is just to flag up that several students on the Global Health Challenges Pg Online course will be researching and improving (in groups) approximately seven stub articles related to WikiProject Disaster management this month. Namely:

1. 2024 Western megafires
2. 1983 famine in Ghana
3. 2016-17 Zimbabwe floods
4. 2021 Atami landslide
5. 2005 Kashmir earthquake
6. 1988 Nepal earthquake
7. 1976 Manfredonia accidental release of arsenic

So if you see a flurry of activity on these pages in the coming days then don't worry it is not an attack it is just new student editors trying to help improve and expand these articles using their research. If possible please avoid reverts and provide constructive criticism to help the students learn where they be going wrong whether it is wording, style guidelines or formatting or the types of sources being used etc. Hopefully any issues should be minor in nature but any problems or questions, please ask!
