W/ three seperate incidents reported, the current title may not be sufficient. But wait to see how this gets covered in sources. Might be simpler as "2014 Ottawa shooting attack" (pending on who's behind this). --MASEM (t) 16:09, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
The article has been moved by User:RGloucester to "2014 shootings at Parliament Hill, Ottawa". I have issues with this. First, it uses an indefinite article ("an"), which is against WP:NAME. Second, listing multiple shooting locations (forcing the use of a comma) is also unnecessary; we can limit it to one general location. I would suggest a new name that uses one general location (e.g. Ottawa) and places it before "shootings" (e.g. "2014 Ottawa shootings"). Please discuss potential new names here so we can come to consensus. --NaturalRX17:28, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
Strongly oppose "2014 Ottawa shootings". There have been plenty of other shootings in Ottawa in 2014, I'm sure. "at" is not an article at all. It is a preposition, and is perfectly acceptable in the context of the guidelines. It isn't about "listing multiple locations". It is about clarifying the location. These shootings were at "Parliament Hill" in "Ottawa", as opposed to other Parliament Hills elsewhere. The format "Parliament Hill, Ottawa" is a standard convention for neighbourhoods in cities.

I don't agree with the titles of those articles either. Just because they exist as such doesn't mean that they should, as per WP:OTHERSTUFF. Let's try and actual follow the title criteria this time, shall we? RGloucester — ☎18:22, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
I believe these article titles are in keeping with WP:NAME conventions, just because you don't agree with them, it doesn't mean they don't follow the conventions. --NaturalRX18:51, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
Comment As it stand now this article is "2014 Shootings at Parliament Hill, Ottawa" I think this current title is apt and succinct. - A Canadian Toker (talk) 18:20, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
The memorial near Parliament. Media is calling these events "Parliament Hill attack" or Parliament Hill shooting". "Downtown" is wrong, as the Rideau Centre thing did not actually happen. This is the longstand article. That fork has already been merged here. RGloucester — ☎18:50, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

Soldier's Death
There have been conflicting reports on if the soldier that was shot has died, please hold off editing the soldier's condition, other than the fact that a soldier has been shot. Misplaced Pages is not news. Avion365 (talk) 17:21, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
