2016 Ohio State University attack

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Only a few injuries, no deaths (aside from the gunman), suspect identified and killed, does not seem worthy of having a standalone article. If something is to happen to the article, it should be redirected to List of school shootings in the United States Andise1 (talk) 18:31, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep and suggest withdrawal. First of all, you're asking this to be redirected in an AfD. Also, there is currently a merge discussion open. I see no valid reason given for this. Dat GuyTalkContribs 18:33, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep at this time. Premature; there is no deadline. Investigation has barely started.  General Ization   Talk   18:34, 28 November 2016 (UTC)


 * WP:SNOW Keep.  Being covered by the major national media as a significant event.  If it turns out that it was caused by a bad breakup.  We can revisit.   But keep at least for now because that AFD makes Wikipedia look stupid.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:41, 28 November 2016 (UTC)

 * Speedy keep per WP:COMMONSENSE. --143.105.17.185 (talk) 18:44, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep. Come on. The attacker hasn't even been identified yet. —Мандичка YO 😜 18:50, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Snow keep and come back in a month or so if it there are still concerns. TonyBallioni (talk) 18:51, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep Strongly support keeping this article as a significant event. Juneau Mike (talk) 18:52, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep. Not a strong basis for a deletion. 'Few injuries, little known attacker'. Can easily be compared to the Chelsea Bombings in Manhattan. Recommend a keep. UNSC Luke 1021 (talk) 18:56, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Strongly urge the next editor coming to this page to CLOSE this discussion. We can always revisit after the dust settles.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:58, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
 * No, the next editor coming to this page says delete per WP:NOT. How can something that happened a few hours ago have possibly attracted coverage in the secondary sources that this encyclopedia is supposed to be based on? 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:05, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Perhaps you should look at the cited sources for the article to confirm that it did.  General Ization  Talk   19:09, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
