Hello, Celjski Grad. I see that you have removed the count of deceased children. We usually write such info in the infobox and preamble. Why do you believe that in this case it should be omitted? Thanks. With regards, Oleg Y. (talk) 16:56, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The lead is a summary of the article, which already contains details such as the number of children in the running text below. The ‘reported deaths’ infobox parameter, like the lead, is a summary for a more detailed breakdown in the article. Celjski Grad (talk) 17:06, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, this is not what I see. After your removal the lead doesn't have it any more. Before your edit it was:

• "On 12 June 2024, the ship HB la Saintet sank in the Kwa River, a tributary of the Congo River in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, killing at least 86 people. including 21 child"

and after your change it's:

• "On 12 June 2024, the ship HB la Saintet sank in the Kwa River, a tributary of the Congo River in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, killing at least 86 people"

Also you have removed it from the infobox. With regards, Oleg Y. (talk) 17:15, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That’s what I said above. The details are in the article body below, in the Events section. Celjski Grad (talk) 17:18, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I saw that. But my original point was that such details is common to include in lead as well as in the infobox as well. With regards, Oleg Y. (talk) 17:39, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
