The latest edit implies that there was. I doubt that the definition of a serial killer applies here.--Quisqualis (talk) 00:18, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

32 or 33 victims?
A woman committed suicide by euthanasia in May 2022, and one source apparently lists her as the 33rd victim of the attacks. It is one that should be noted in the article, since her PTSD was very serve, but she didn't exactly die back in 2016. From a certain point of view, she was murdered in the attacks, as the attackers destroyed her mental health and indirectly caused her suicide. But at the same time, she survived the attacks, and her death was a case of euthanasia. 2001:8003:AD13:F800:7CC8:16F0:14FC:D5DB (talk) 05:18, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Naming conventions for streets, etc., in Brussels
Please see Wikipedia:WikiProject Belgium/Brussels naming conventions.
"Use the double name (be consistent about which format is used in each article) the first time the thing is mentioned unless there is a linkable article (in which case use the title) or an extremely obvious English name.
Use the French (or Dutch, if that is more common in English) name thereafter.
Example: There is an expensive store at the intersection of Rue de la Concorde/Eendrachtstraat and Avenue Louise. Rue de la Concorde has lots of fancy shops." Southdevonian (talk) 17:28, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Southdevonian, thank you for the above reminder – it will certainly come in handy for new users. It is probably not the best place for me to do this, but if I may add something, I have always found the last clause, specifically the exception regarding the linkable article, rather clumsy. It would seem much more logical to me to use the dual name for the first mention, when no obvious English translation is available, in all instances (regardless whether a dedicated article is linked or not) and then follow with the single name thereafter. This would, in my opinion, avoid awkward wording like in the sentence you paraphrased: "There is an expensive store at the intersection of Rue de la Concorde/Eendrachtstraat and Avenue Louise", where the dual name is used in one case, but not in another, even though they are both pointing to similar things (i.e. streets). For having edited many articles relating to Brussels over the years, I have found this particularly true in sentences with long lists of placenames, some with existing linkable pages and others without. For this reason, I have never truly followed that last exception, and it seems that many other users have not either, so the "modified" approach I mentioned has somehow become the de facto one over the years. Anyway, these conventions are quite old (2007), so perhaps it is a subject of discussion for a future revision. Jason Lagos (talk) 18:47, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I have removed the repeats of Maalbeek as alternative to Maelbeek as it is only necessary for the first time a name is mentioned, as per convention. Southdevonian (talk) 16:22, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Agree about the illogical linking. Southdevonian (talk) 16:23, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
