[edit]

Paul Mojzes used a Books LLC source (Massacres in Bosnia and Herzegovina, 2010) as a reference. That book used Wikipedia as a source, namely an article created by banned user Historičar (that is, one of his socks) in which he called the shelling of Duša a massacre, although it is not described that way in neither of the ICTY trials he cited. He was the one that created this article also. Historičar apparently did this in a number of articles, allegedly using ICTY as a source, but modifying it or copy/pasting just the prosecutions indictment. Anyway, this was an artillery/mortar attack on an ARBiH held village. Markale was a deliberate shelling of a packed marketplace. Not that it matters too much as civilians were killed regardless of what we name the article, but for example Križančevo selo and Trusina are also not named massacres.

You're correct per WP:CIRCULAR we cannot rely on Mojzes in this instance. Moving back. --Potočnik (talk) 20:28, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
