 * Delete not notable for stand-alone article, it would be different if they had actually hit the predator. (and although despite the title no fighters were involved) MilborneOne (talk) 18:30, 11 November 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete - I agree that it is not notable enough for its own article and in fact this incident is already mentioned in Sukhoi Su-25 and General Atomics MQ-1 Predator. Any further useful content of a political, as opposed to an aerospace, nature can be added to Iran–United States relations after 1979. - Ahunt (talk) 19:37, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - as per above reasons; not news, doesn't have long term notability for a whole dedicated article, covered well on other articles already. Kyteto (talk) 20:03, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - per WP:NOTNEWSPAPER - This is Wikipedia, not Wikinews. As what Ahunt stated "incident is already mentioned in Sukhoi Su-25 and General Atomics MQ-1 Predator." Notability issues too. -- Cheers, Riley   Huntley  01:14, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete This minor incident can be adequately covered through existing articles. I'd have no objection to recreation if this turns out to have long-term significance, but that seems unlikely at this time. Nick-D (talk) 07:54, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete, with an option to transwiki to Wikinews if they want it and don't have an article yet. Legoktm (talk) 00:23, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
