[edit] Tuen Mun Road Rock Fall Accident
A big rock hit a bus in Hong Kong eleven years ago and killed the driver. Non-notable (expect maybe to the driver). Crabapplecove 02:08, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete: I can't think of how A7 could apply to road accidents, but perhaps it should be rewritten to cover events that make no claim to notability. A rock fell on the road, and that's horrible. Someone died, and that's even worse. None of it is encyclopedic. Geogre 02:32, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, non-notable event. --Kinu t/c 02:45, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, event was not newsworthy on a more-than-local scale. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 02:57, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, since the event is already mentioned in the Tuen Mun Road page. It doesn't seem like there was any investigation or consequences, so that makes the event nn. SliceNYC 03:55, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per above. -- Gogo Dodo 04:08, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per all of the above. Imagine if people started creating articles for every local traffic accident. Maybe someone should create Traffikipedia. ---Charles 21:47, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. If I've not missed something, the accident referenced in the Tuen Mun Road article is a more recent happening, but I'm not at all certain that this accident merits any encyclopedic treatment; if it does, any reference to it in the Tuen Mun Road article would be sufficiently terse and fact-based as to require no GFDL preservation (as against in a merge).

- Delete per nom. As inclusionist as I am we're not going to build an obituary site... rootology 06:16, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
