IDK why you’re trying to source someone else’s comment for them, but if you read the comment and the wiki you would see that they are not in agreement.
This is why I asked for their source. Sorry if you find that offensive for some reason lol
Correct, as I said elsewhere they got the distribution wrong because they are working off memory, but it’s not difficult to link the numbers - they mistook the police and army as having the same number of deaths as civilian protestors rather than student protestors, but the total roughly matches and there’s only one source that makes that specific distinction between groups rather than a general guess at a total. I don’t understand why you’re so upset about being told the source after asking for the source.
Yes? I’m confused, is there no subject you’re familiar enough with to recognise sources?
Yes it does, it doesn’t qualify as a reference, but luckily you’re looking at the Wikipedia page so you can just click it instead.
Yes, people make mistakes, but luckily sometimes other people like me are around to correct them.
No, I can justify my attributionby the fact that there’s only one (1) source that lists the dead by faction, the numbers just show how they misremembered the specifics of the source.
This isn’t some complex chain of advanced logic, I really don’t understand what you’re having trouble with.

So just to clarify, you think that:
1.) you can provide the correct source for another person’s statement
2.) what you posted qualifies as a source even though you did not give one
3.) it’s OK if the statement does not agree with the source
4.) you can justify your misattribution by cherry-picking a number that “roughly” agrees if you massage it
Bruh.
