Serbs lived in Sarajevo too !

[edit]

Why would Serbs kill own people in Sarajevo ? There were no separated Muslims' and Christans' quarters! Something is wrong here.

New Article Creation & Sourcing

[edit]

Hello fellow editors,

I have just created this article to provide a neutral, encyclopedic overview of the phenomenon known as "Sarajevo Safari." This is a highly sensitive and controversial topic, and I want to briefly outline the sourcing and structure to ensure compliance with Wikipedia's core policies.

1. Notability (WP:N)

[edit]

The topic's notability is established not just by the 2022 documentary film, but by the significant, lasting international coverage and official state-level responses it generated.

Key notability points covered in the article:

  • Media Coverage: The allegations have been covered by numerous high-quality, independent reliable sources (WP:RS) including The Guardian,[1] El País,[2] Daily Sabah,[3] and New Lines Magazine,[4] among others.
  • Legal Investigations: Crucially, the allegations have led to two separate, official investigations: one by the Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina (opened in 2022)[5] and another by the Public Prosecutor's Office in Milan, Italy (opened in 2025).[1] This demonstrates real-world impact beyond a single media event.
  • Prior Corroboration: The article includes the 2007 testimony from an ICTY trial (witness John Jordan), which independently corroborates key claims (such as the Grbavica location) long before the 2022 film.[6]

2. Neutrality & Presentation (WP:NPOV)

[edit]

Given the subject, strict adherence to a Neutral Point of View is critical. The article is structured to present all sides of the controversy without taking a stance.

  • Attribution of Claims: Allegations are not presented as facts. They are explicitly attributed to their sources (e.g., "According to allegations and testimonies...", "The film bases its claims...", "According to Italian media reports...").
  • Inclusion of Denials: A specific section, "== Reactions and denials ==", is included to give due weight (WP:DUE) to the opposing view. This section details the strong, official denials from officials in Republika Srpska (including Milorad Dodik) and veterans' groups, as well as the counter-criminal complaint filed against the film's director.[7][8][9]

This article is intended as a neutral summary of a notable, multi-faceted controversy. I welcome any good-faith improvements that help maintain its balance and accuracy. Thanks.

  • ... that during the Siege of Sarajevo, wealthy foreign tourists allegedly paid to shoot civilians in the city with sniper rifles?

  • Page is new enough and long enough. Source verifies hook, the page is well-sourced, and WP:EARWIG finds copyvio unlikely. QPQ is not needed. ALT0 hook approved. I will note that I made a few minor edits to the hook for grammar and spelling (fixed the misspelled riffles and capitalized Siege of Sarajevo).

Name confusing for navigation?

[edit]

Is it possibly too confusing to have this article at the same title as the film, and is this topic even legitimately the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC at this point over and above the eponymous documentary? What source analysis was performed on this? Iskandar323 (talk) 18:18, 16 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

AI usage in article?

[edit]

Possible generative content, not entirely sure. Sections with itemized lists should be edited to fit correct formatting, either way. ~2025-41529-06 (talk) 04:59, 19 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
