Donald Trump–CNN beating video

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

WP:WHATNOT - We can't have an article for every single tweet Donald Trump published. Also note a section is already at Donald Trump on social media. Dat GuyTalkContribs 17:50, 2 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete per WP:A7 web content. The article does not indicate why the video is notable. Not everything Trump does is worthy of an article in our encyclopedia. --Crystallizedcarbon (talk) 17:56, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Donald Trump on social media as a plausbile search term. KGirlTrucker81 huh? what I've been doing 18:07, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Some mention somewhere is appropriate but not as a standalone article.  --Lockley (talk) 18:20, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete, some references like "covfefe" are appropriate for redirection to Donald Trump on social media,  but this is not one of them  Ziphit (talk) 18:43, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect per KGirlTrucker81. If there's a section on an article with content for this search term, we should redirect readers there. Patar knight - chat/contributions 21:20, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep or Redirect, for now. If this turns into something later, it might become notable (eg., it's taken as evidence of mental instability - and no, I'm not trying to be political about this).  If not, then delete.98.22.39.237 (talk) 21:29, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Speedy incubate during AfD and then Delete "Beating"?  Yes, there are sources that use that word, but "beating" is vague and charged, and Wikipedia should not be feeding into the argument for who is inciting violence.  What will this event be called in ten years?  This is too soon.  The coverage at Donald Trump on social media is sufficient for now.  Unscintillating (talk) 04:24, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Per WP:NOTNEWS. Wikipedia is not a social media trends site. We cannot create entire new articles everytime Donald Trump does, thinks, says or tweets something moronic. AusLondonder (talk) 18:40, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect per above. if it's discussed elsewhere, which it is, this should be redirected there. But it's not worthy of its own article, as others have discussed. Smartyllama (talk) 22:04, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand This news story is definitely big and controversial enough to keep and expand with additional information including reactions from various media/political figures and the press. PlanetDeadwing (talk) 23:58, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Speedy merge with Donald Trump on social media - per above. Jdcomix (talk) 00:02, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - The information is already presented in Donald Trump on social media, per the above rationale.  Yoshiman6464   ♫🥚 02:28, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - The media making a whole big thing out of this than it should, should be a subsection on Donald Trump on social media.F2Milk (talk) 05:03, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Donald Trump on social media. Ceosad (talk) 13:44, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect - Not worthy of an article on its own. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 15:50, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete Trump tweets so many stupid and inmature things, not every one needs its own wikipedia article.--ANDREWs13 (talk) 00:46, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Donald Trump on social media: On its own, its pretty terrible, but I don't see it as having the notability to carry a separate article. The Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski conflict received more coverage, but it didn't get its own article. D ARTH B OTTO talk • cont 01:32, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete as news. And for anyone who thinks a title with an en dash is a plausible redirect... you've spent entirely too much time memorizing the manual of style. Timothy Joseph Wood  15:08, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete as NotNews, and already in existing article. Sir Joseph (talk) 15:09, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - not notable on its own.Volunteer Marek (talk) 16:36, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete – The original WWE "beating" was faked, as is all of the wrestling viewers see in pro-wrestling. The CNN version was crude, uncivil, and humorous to Trump-fans – but not notable enough for a WP article. – S. Rich (talk) 19:08, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - A tiny pimple on the bum of the Trump presidency. WP:NOTNEWS. Carrite (talk) 16:15, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirecting to Donald Trump on social media seems appropriate. Carrite (talk) 16:17, 9 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Donald Trump on social media, that's the right place for this kind of thing. - GretLomborg (talk) 17:29, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete or Cofevefevfe itt: simple pimple not-news, not inclusion-worthy thingy. Doidlodilalodaiodloadodolodiododoldidoldilodo (talk) 17:41, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
