I saw u removed the "Wit Wolwe" belt detail. I think it's worth keeping because the Wit Wolwe was the actual name of the farright extremist group he claimed to represent. Wearing their insignia during the shooting is a pretty important detail for his motive, just like the camo uniform. Ihateandlovemyself (talk) 20:31, 21 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

I guess it's arguable but it seems inappropriately specific provided we have already established the Wit Wolwe detail. But I won't remove it again. because eh, I can see why. Will fix the reference, though. PARAKANYAA (talk) 22:31, 21 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
