[edit] Morgan Innes
Completely non-notable accident victim whose only claim to fame was dying in a ferry accident on Sydney Harbour; and see WP:NOT#MEMORIAL, which this is rapidly becoming. Within a couple of weeks she will be completely forgotten. While I feel for the family involved, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a news site or memorial page site, and the incident is already well covered in the Sydney Ferries article and that is enough. I have already merged a separate article created about the accident. Delete JRG 09:34, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

- Delete as per nom.--cj | talk 09:40, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete fails BIO. --Peta 09:41, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete as with other NN accident victims. There's always the chance this could be the subject of a groundbreaking civil lawsuit but for now there's no real importance attached. Sorry for getting in the middle of your nom, JRG, I misread the posting time.--Dhartung | Talk 09:42, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, getting killed, no matter how tragic the circumstances, doesn't automatically make you notable. Lankiveil 09:46, 30 March 2007 (UTC).
- Delete -- per all the reasonable reasons provided above. - Longhair\talk 09:52, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete I think you are underresting the popularity of this young girl. Mayb enone of you now anything about figure skating? I guess not.--Matrix17 12:11, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Even if we don't, there are guidelines for biographies on Wikipedia as Peta has already mentioned, and she does not meet those guidelines; and calling for the article to be deleted yourself doesn't make me any more confident. JRG 12:43, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete doesn't claim to be a notable figure skater. MLA 12:29, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Sadly not notable. Have only won state championships in Queensland, afaik no national or international results worth mentioning. --Strangnet 12:34, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Please just stop this discussion - someone get rid of the article, and we should all move along... really. Petesmiles 12:48, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
