{{
requested move/dated|Oikos University shooting}}
2012 Oakland school shooting → Oikos University shooting – I think the article should be moved to Oikos University shooting (currently a redirect to Oikos University), in accordance with all the other university shootings which are named after the university they occurred at. Furthermore, the shooting happened at a university, not a school as the title currently suggests. ( Lord Gøn ( talk) 23:41, 2 April 2012 (UTC))
It's plausible that mental illness played a factor. One L. Goh had language barriers, debt, bullying, and family death contributing to his current mental state. Possibility not even hinted at by Wikipedia, CNN, BBC, and other popular news sources. Might be intuition, but it still could be correct.
Let's say it's later found out that One L. Goh had mental issues. Millions of people have already read the Wikipedia page. What does this say about Wikipedia's accuracy? How about Wikipedia's responsibility to pool information on current events from popular news sources?
A quote from Wikipedia on Secondary Sources "These secondary sources have advantages: The authors were not involved in the event, so they have the emotional distance that allows them to analyze the events dispassionately. They also have disadvantages: The authors are writing about what other people said happened and cannot use their own experience to correct any errors or omissions. The authors may be unable to see clearly through their own cultural lens, and the result may be that they unconsciously emphasize things important to their cultures and times, while overlooking things important to the actual actors."

An editor added a link to the Va Tech shootings. This is already in the link to "List of school-related attacks" also referenced. Considering the reason listed on the edit http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Oikos_University_shooting&diff=prev&oldid=485465651, does this belong? Gtwfan52 ( talk) 08:20, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
Is he age 42 or 43? The article states both. Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro ( talk) 21:28, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
this is an interesting followup, may be appropriate for a sentence here: Hayward resident completes peace garden at Oikos University for shooting victims. User:Mercurywoodrose 99.37.159.165 ( talk) 07:56, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
I didn't see any mention of whether the suspect survived, was captured, was charged, or anything else. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.235.4.236 ( talk) 07:08, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
Shouldn't the title have the word "murder" in it? Calling this the "Oikos University shooting" makes it sounds as if there was a shooting only, but no deaths. Joseph A. Spadaro ( talk) 05:19, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
