 * Weak Delete Per WP:AIRCRASH this should be a keep because it was a hull-loss (the aircraft was written-off) but I can't find any real evidence of significant, sustained coverage for this accident. Just the ASN listing and the AV Herald piece from 2014. With some more evidence of WP:SIGCOV I could flip to keep, but not with the present coverage. FOARP (talk) 08:15, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. DOesn't pass GNG. AIRCRASH is a well regarded essay - but still an essay. I did find this story (which differs from ASN - no injuries, no damage to the aircraft) - so I'm not sure how correct the ASN report is. Even if we accept the ASN report of 6 minor injuries and substantial damage (ASN itself doesn't support writeoff) - it doesn't pass AIRCRASH. And even if it were to be a hull loss (of the "too expensive to repair an old plane type") - of a 21 year old 737 - that's a bit umm - meh. AIRCRASH is a good essay - but it is a tad too binary - this is the sort of incident (if it passes V - which it doesn't here) - which is in the grey zone. Icewhiz (talk) 10:47, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Doesn't pass GNG,as per icewhiz.--Petebutt (talk) 22:56, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Almost no coverage. Found this it makes no difference. (Dushan Jugum (talk) 08:02, 2 February 2019 (UTC)).
 * Delete Fails WP:GNG, also WP:NOTNEWS. Take your choice....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 13:51, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete not really noteworthy for a stand-alone article, if YA-PIB is a hull-loss then it can be just included in List of accidents and incidents involving the Boeing 737. MilborneOne (talk) 14:40, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:GNG, and nothing extraordinary about this incident such as an unusual cause. Doradafan (talk) 19:32, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
