:I've clarified this item to reflect that the news article is referring to the rate during a single year. On a broader topic, I think we might consider transferring this whole litany of dates and deaths out of the lede and into a later section. Comments?

Bastun: that doesn't change the fact that the source you've chosen - out of all the sources on the subject - is comparing a single year to an average, which is obvious manipulation of the statistics. It's not even subtle. We can choose which source to use rather than being stuck with this one specific journal.ie article. There's a good reason Wikipedia is edited by humans rather than using an automated news aggregator : it's to allow human logic to choose content. So I ask again: is there a source which uses honest methods?
Jxm's edit is an improvement, but we shouldn't be using that source at all, and we shouldn't be making that type of comparison. [[User:Cookncrem|Cookncrem]] ([[User talk:Cookncrem|talk]]) 22:42, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
