nn bio, Wikipedia is not a memorial site. User:Zoe|(talk) 02:38, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

The article on O'Grady isn't a memorial. It's a description of him and the incedent that killed him. There are many wikipedia articles on police officers who have died in famous high profile incedents, such as Daniel Faulkner and Yvonne Fletcher. User:Chainclaw|(talk) 23:52, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

• Keep but create an article Brinks robbery (1981), I created the space and made it a redirect to Kathy Boudin. There needs to be an article on the robbery itself. Now the information is split between Kathy Boudin and Edward O'Grady. Since there is only a paragraph here on Edward O'Grady, that paragraph can be later included in the article, and there can be a paragraph synopsis for each of the criminal and police participants. When its all complete Edward O'Grady can be a redirect. I think I can get a photograph of each of the police officer and each of the captured criminals. The robbery was covered by every major New York and New Jersey paper and there may still be info on the FBI website. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 03:41, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

• Merge and redirect to Brinks robbery (1981). I'm skeptical of all these cop articles that have turned up lately. Most of them don't actually seem to have done anything except be in the wrong place at the wrong time. --Dhartung | Talk 08:00, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Brinks robbery (1981) per Dhartung. Most of the article does not concern Edward O'Grady but the robbery and the aftermath.--John Lake 21:38, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

• Merge and Redirect to [[Brinks robbery {1981)]] would be more appropriate. Davidpdx 12:33, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and Redirect to [[Brinks robbery {1981)]] is my take, as well.Shawn in Montreal 02:13, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
