I suggest removing most names (per [[WP:NOTMEMORIAL]] and given the growing list of names) - leaving in names that were discussed in greater detail - and noting casualty figures (and other notable details) for each major conflict/protest in the timeline.

I've tried to be scrupulously focused on describing the circumstances of death, without memorializing the victims' lives. This is a complex event where no more than twenty deaths have occurred on one day, typically one to five. It's also an event where the cause of death varies, from military-militant engagement to death during protest (and where sometimes that categorization is disputed). There is wide RS coverage of the deaths, their circumstance, the actions of those killed, the nature of fire being used, membership in protected groups (youth, the disabled, journalists), organizational affiliation, and the rules of engagement involved. When generalizations are made (such as claiming the dead were "part of a largely peaceful crowd," "attempted to cut the fence," "were terrorists," or "were posing no danger to the soldiers") readers should be able to look to the facts to independently evaluate them. The clearest and easiest way to approach that, for now, is to list the deaths individual with relevant facts. :In addition (and this is matter that just helps the editing process), we have messy situation where people are dying one to fifteen days after they are shot.

What's really at issue is whether the independent expertise of the organization is making the report more reliable. For example, the HRW report cited here isn't based on on-the-ground investigation, so we're not citing it to say "HRW reported that XX people were shot by live ammunition." They did in fact report that, but relied entirely on other sources. However, we do (and should) say that HRW said that shooting protesters is a violation of human rights standards. Since I haven't seen the Meir Amit ITIC report, I can't comment on whether they are offering some value added (i.e., they have access to confidential sources or files on the dead Palestinians) or they are just tabulating media reports (i.e., they are relying on IDF allegations made elsewhere). If it's the former case, then saying they are "an Israeli security establishment NGO" helps explain why they are a (imperfectly and partially) credible organization on the topic. If it's the latter, we should just leave them out and report directly on IDF/Shin Bet claims, assuming there's a media source we can quote.

Protests do not. We should move away from incidents only to a more specific NPOV name, otherwise we move WP backwards. For example, the Palestine News Agency, [[Wafa]], recognizes that these are more than protests, using in [http://english.wafa.ps/page.aspx?id=WFMmNKa97190161101aWFMmNK this article] 0 times "protests" and 3 times "events". [[User:Gidonb|gidonb]] ([[User talk:Gidonb|talk]]) 01:18, 8 April 2018 (UTC) ====Scope: Include ongoing protest campaign?==== It's pretty clear that there will be ongoing, substantial coverage of the Great March of Return protests, including events after the Land Day incidents. For example: * [https://www.haaretz.com/middle-east-news/palestinians/.premium-gaza-border-protest-organizer-we-re-not-savages-we-just-want-freedom-1.5964378 ''Ha'aretz'' profile of protest leader] * [https://www.reuters.com/article/us-israel-palestinians-protests-tactics/another-palestinian-killed-near-gaza-israel-border-as-more-protests-loom-idUSKCN1HA217 Reuters on continuing protests and additional death on April 3] * [https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/middle_east/israel-defense-minister-vows-tough-response-to-gaza-protests/2018/04/03/bffd5daa-3728-11e8-af3c-2123715f78df_story.html?utm_term=.81f607c91ea3 ''Washington Post'' on further protests] Shall we expand the scope to include subsequent days in this protest campaign (which is currently slated to last through mid-May)?--[[User:Carwil|Carwil]] ([[User talk:Carwil|talk]]) 14:42, 4 April 2018 (UTC) :* '''Yes'''. These aren't distinct events - but an on-going campaign. Should this escalate to a full-on armed conflict - we should probably delineate this article to the beginning of full hostilities - but as long as it is on the level of 30th March events - we should string them together. For 6th April the Gazans are planning (or at least are saying so publicly and releasing PR to that effect) earth embankments from their side and burning tires for smoke cover - in response to events on 30th March.[[User:Icewhiz|Icewhiz]] ([[User talk:Icewhiz|talk]]) 14:54, 4 April 2018 (UTC) ===Great March of Return=== {{editprotected|answered=yes}} *This seems like a neutral, noncontroversial
