Defendant in a pit bull dog attack. Delete Transfer to Wikinews, not notable. Gazpacho 03:42, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Abstain This is trash but "Faibish bit bull San Francisco" gets over 5000 google hits. Wikipedia is full of stuff no worse than this, which will be a big deal at the checkout counters for a month or two. --Wetman 03:49, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep if expanded. News coverage on this story as far away as Australia - borderline notable. JamesBurns 04:18, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep . This is actually a pretty big deal in the SF bay area, and has been all over the news. Granted, the current stub doesn't say much, but it's verifiable and notable.   &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 04:28, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Transwiki to Wikinews. Porturology makes an excellent point.   &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 20:08, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Move Seems more suited to wikinews PdDemeter 05:44, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. It'a not so much the dog mauling per se that makes this noteable - but the amount of notoriety this woman has gained with that interview has made her a 'household name' in the Bay Area and as such warrants a mention in Wikipedia.
 * Transwiki to Wikinews. Sustainabilty of notoriety is very doubtful. "coverage as far away as Australia" ! - there is a picture in today's Sydney Morning Herald of an american dog wearing sunglasses - does this make the dog a subject for an encyclopaedia article?--Porturology 07:48, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * It would if the dog could talk on television interviews and gave birth to a kid, which was then killed in a pit bull attack. JamesBurns 04:21, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * If it gets kept, someone should correct the information, because July 24 2005 hasn't happened yet. DS 16:06, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Transwiki from Wikipedia to Wikinews is not allowed, for copyright reasons. A Wikinews article would have to be written from scratch.  If I have the time today, I'll do so, I've done so, since this is newsworthy.  I strongly suggest that all of the editors who have voted for transwiki reconsider their votes in light of the fact that what they want is not permitted.  (Any of them is welcome to go to Wikinews xyrself and beat me to writing an article. &#9786;) Uncle G 13:19, 2005 Jun 26 (UTC)
