WP:SYNTH combining a bunch of attacks by disparate groups that are covered independently of each other in the media, with no links of any kind presented by news articles or any other reliable sourcing. The "islamist" part of the title isn't even true, since the Thai one is by separatists in a Muslim-majority region and there is no evidence (as of this moment) of any affiliation of the Jordanian assailant. Compare to 26 June 2015 Islamist attacks, which had widespread coverage of occurring on the same day and having the same inspiration. ansh.666 20:39, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete — Unfortunately there are lots of terror attacks, but these are not by the same group and haven't even been connected in skeptic media. Kingsif (talk) 20:43, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Terrorism-related deletion discussions. Shellwood (talk) 20:54, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep — Or split if no connection is shown. Only the Thailand attack has an article. The attacks are notable. Remove Islamist from the title if that motivation can't be shown. Jim Michael (talk) 21:02, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support some kind of split for the other attacks. Might start the articles myself; I had thought they existed, but thanks Jim for correcting me there :) Kingsif (talk) 21:34, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete — There is no direct correlation between these attacks and the existence of this page is unnecessary, since its purpose is better served by List of terrorist incidents in November 2019. CentreLeftRight ✉ 22:42, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete WP:NOTNEWS perhaps the attacks are not related, the research does not even know. And given that the world has 1.8 billion muslims, it is likely that this coincidence occurs often. Lightburst (talk) 23:30, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as SYNTH and a violation of NOTNEWS. Drmies (talk) 23:32, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Would you all be voting to delete if there were separate articles about each attack & Islamist were not in their titles? Jim Michael (talk) 00:15, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. ansh.666 02:55, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As for the individual events, as I have said 1.8 billion muslims. Not notable. WP:NOTNEWS and we do not have WP:CONTINUED

Lightburst (talk) 02:59, 7 November 2019 (UTC)restoring my erased comment. I assume accidentally erased.[reply]

You don't need to make anymore wikis. Jim Michael you only put one sentence and a source. There is no need if we have current events and you can fit a whole sentence on that. Only make wikis if you can put more sources in and it's actually important. Only two of the attacks today are notable today, the one in Thailand and Burkina Faso. None of the other attacks are even close to being important. 11S117 (talk) 01:45, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete WP:NOTNEWS and there is not evident the attacks is correlated. CASSIOPEIA^(talk) 02:59, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or Merge into List of terrorist incidents in November 2019. Ultimately no need to single out this one day. Also, as most others pointed out, WP:NOTNEWS applies. hewhoam areismyself 05:40, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete When we make this kind of articles about different not related attacks in the world, we can make this kind of articles every day. When the stabber in Lebanon was targeting Western tourists it is notable enough for a separate article in my opinion. Lukasvdb99 (talk) 09:48, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

None of the 5 attacks in this article happened in Lebanon. Do you mean that the attack in Jerash, Jordan should have its own article? Jim Michael (talk) 23:43, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I meant that one. I confused the countries.Lukasvdb99 (talk) 09:40, 10 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per SYNTH and NOTNEWS. No connection between events has been demonstrated other than they happened to occur on the same day. Daß Wölf 23:29, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:SYNTH, while tragic, there is no evidence that any of these events are linked to each other beyond anything other than coincidence. No source makes note of this making the article seems suspiciously like WP:OR. There are other dates in history were multiple terrorist attacks or shootings occurred simultaneously while unrelated to one another. Inter&anthro (talk) 06:56, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete We do not have news round up articles. There is zeron evidence these create a discrete unit, let alone that they were covered as such.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:23, 10 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The events are not related; may be they are in author’s mind but the article does not give any conclusion. Nikoo.Amini (talk) 22:50, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - putting them together is original research and a random list, bordering on a fringe theory. Bearian (talk)
