[edit] Washington, DC Sesna scare

Non-notable news event, extremely badly misspelled, badly formatted, maybe two lines worth of Wikinews space. RickK 18:59, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

• Delete - the Ernie Fletcher incident was notable, this one was not. -- Jonel 19:30, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete - non-notable. Maybe if something comes of it down the line, but as it stands, not right now. Hell, I'm in Arlington right now, a few miles away from the incident and I didn't even know it happened. ^_^;;; --Mitsukai 19:34, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, non-notable. --Canderson7 20:16, May 11, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Recent but not notable. ESkog 20:59, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
• The incident could have encyclopedic relevance to an article about the air defence of Washington, D.C., of the United States or of North America, or general aviation security surprises generally (remember the private pilot in Red Square in the 80s? the office tower in Florida not long after 9/11?), but there's nothing much here.

  • Although I vote delete at the moment since this was clearly a false alarm, I agree that some sort of article cataloguing similar post-9/11 events over Washington would be of interest. 23skidoo 04:05, 12 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. A carzy goy on a sellfone drivin in frunt of my mums lassed fridy hit a dear on teh hiway. That's not notable either. Tomer ^TALK 19:15, May 16, 2005 (UTC)
  • I don't think every little thing that causes a "scare" like this is newsworthy. Every few weeks they have security "scares" at MSP int'l airport, and so flights get re-routed to my town. This all started as a result of the calamity on 9/11/(01), but I hardly think mention of such things is sufficiently noteworthy to be mentioned in an encyclopedia article (or certainly not, as in this case, to have its own horribly misspelled article).
