Maine pile up

Non notable event per WP:NOTNEWS Mo ainm  ~Talk  19:31, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - not WP:GNG notable for a separate article (possibly not yet - this is very recent) and does not satisfy the criteria for inclusion at List of road accidents (2010–present) so redirecting is not a good option. Although we do have some articles on car crashes (see Category:Road accidents) there is an apparent consensus not to have pages on non-fatal collisions, unless they are notable for some other reason. For example, 2009 Taconic State Parkway crash was fatal, Alexian Lien beating was unusual and has national attention, 2014 Khairpur bus crash killed 56, and so on. If this was a crash resulting from winter weather in, say, Arizona, then it would probably be notable, but somewhere like Maine it just isn't. If this were to be kept, it should be moved to a better title, perhaps 2015 Maine Interstate 95 crash. Ivanvector (talk) 22:41, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
