Talk:2017 Medford, New Jersey, helicopter crash

Article name
I would like comments on the name of this new article. Under the accepted Project Aviation notability guidelines, the only reason this crash qualifies for its own article is the death of a notable person, Troy Gentry. The current article name follows the standard accident naming conventions to the letter: year, place name, aircraft type. However, other aircraft accidents involving the death of celebrities typically have the name of the person in the Wikipedia article name, e.g. Death of Stevie Ray Vaughan. Renaming the article as "Death of Troy Gentry" would make it easier to find by folks who aren't aviation nerds like myself. Thoughts? Carguychris (talk) 14:24, 30 November 2018 (UTC)

2017 Medford, New Jersey Schweizer 269C crash → 2017 Medford, New Jersey helicopter crash – Per WP:COMMONNAME. Schweizer is not a well-known aviation manufacturer among the general public, and few laypeople seem to recognize Schweizer 269C as an aircraft type, much less a helicopter. No other helicopter crashes meeting WP:GNG occurred in Medford in 2017, so the new name satisfies WP:DAB. Carguychris (talk) 14:25, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Support. I was gonna propose something along these lines around the Kobe Bryant article title fiasco, but never got around to it. Thanks for picking up the slack. Nohomersryan (talk) 18:15, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Support – Helicopter models are particularly obscure to most people, even more than fixed wing aircraft, so there's little value in having them in the title. --Deeday-UK (talk) 21:38, 8 April 2020 (UTC)
