Brisbane flood response 2011

 * I removed a story promoting an article on the Brisbane flood response as it had no sources and did not appear to have a current affairs article. Capitalistroadster (talk) 22:34, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Unnotable story
Why is the following story notable enough to be included here: "A Bedouin man is arrested in Israel for impersonating a Jewish pilot, rape, and defrauding women for lying about his identity on a dating service and having sexual relations with women met through the service." I removed it once, but it was reinserted. This sounds like a run-of-the-mill local news story, not a major world event. Kaldari (talk) 21:46, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
