Talk:2012 College Station shooting

Near or on campus grounds?
Did the shooting occur on school grounds or simply "near" the university? If it's the latter than the title may be misleading. ComputerJA (talk)

Why Does This Have an Article?
Shootings happen every single day in America. Major ones should obviously have their own article, but this was simply news on CNN because it happened near a campus. Now that it's clear it had nothing to do with the school, most news outlets have dropped the story. 138.199.66.222 (talk) 18:20, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

Keep. While the article is barely more than stub, it meets the notability guidelines. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.108.213.82 (talk) 12:42, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

Remove. Shootings happen every day, every where. If we make an article for every individual event we would flood Wikipedia's servers, this one is not important enough to keep an encyclopedic record of. 68.119.88.7 (talk) 03:46, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

2012 Texas A& → 2012 College Station, Texas shooting – Event was not on the campus of Texas A&M, but rather just in the same city. Title is misleading otherwise.  Imzadi 1979  →   00:14, 14 August 2012 (UTC)
