Pasig City stampede
News story not worthy of its own article, IMO. I don't see this ever becoming important enough to warrant having an article seperate from Wowowee. If it does evolve to become that important, it can have a seperate article then; but as of now, it's just another event that can be (and has been) incorporated into another article. Redirecting to Wowowee (see the "Wowowee Tragedy" section) would be a good idea since this story is "in the news" right now. -Frazzydee|&#9997; 17:05, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete: As per nom. -- CABHAN   TALK   CONTRIBS  17:07, 4 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Speedy keep it's a current event in which 73 people died and 300 more were injured. Merging it into an article about a very popular gameshow is like merging any football (soccer) riot into the article about the football team. -- a.n.o.n.y.m  t 17:08, 4 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep if a disaster on this scale had happened recently in the US or UK I bet you there would be no doubt about it being notable. See e.g. the Ibrox disaster, a rather similar incident in Glasgow in 1971 which left 66 dead, nobody is calling for this article to be deleted. PatGallacher 22:26, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep. Clearly an important event meriting its own article, but only if more information becomes available to where it should be independent of the Wowowee page.  FWIW, I even heard about it on the local-centric 6 o'clock news, of all places.  --Kinu 00:10, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

*Keep per above. --Vsion (talk) 02:06, 5 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep as per expansion and Kinu. -- CABHAN   TALK   CONTRIBS  02:29, 5 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Speedy Keep please, article expanded significantly. Nominated for main page "In the news"--Vsion (talk) 02:53, 5 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Rename to ULTRA stadium stampede. Otherwise, strong keep. Circa 1900 08:36, 5 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep Simply because it is an important event and must be kept on its own. 210.5.84.233 09:07, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. Dustimagic *\o/* (talk/contribs) *\o/* 09:12, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Well I would close this, but as I can't find the appropriate templates/procedure at Articles for deletion I'll just remove the AfD template from the article. violet/riga (t) 11:36, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
