[edit] October 2004 Martinsville plane crash

This is an article on a non-notable light aircraft crash, these sorts of things happen everyday (unfortunately). The only claim to notability here is that the plane was owned by Hendrick Motorsports however no notable person was on the aircraft. WP:NOT a memorial. See the following prior AFDs on similar subjects: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2006 Long Island Sound Plane Crash and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2006 Indiana Plane Crash (2nd nomination). The Long Island crash is very similar. Nilfanion (talk) 18:21, 22 September 2006 (UTC) Speedy Keep, withdrawing deletion req. At the time the article made no assertion as to the notability of its victims; and as I had not heard of it. The article still needs work, but that is what cleanup templates are for.--Nilfanion (talk) 20:52, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

• Strong Keep, yes, there were notable people on the plane, and the story made national and international news - however, the article does not make any mention of this, so it needs to be added. AFD is not a substitute for a cleanup tag. --Coredesat talk! 18:33, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep, per above. Storm05 18:58, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, Ricky Hendrick was on the plane. Recury 19:19, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
