Scandinavian Airlines Flight 1209

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Minor crash landing with minor injuries. Hardly newsworthy, let alone encyclopedic. PROD tag added, but removed with talk page comments indicating that the creator has confused Wikipedia with Aviation Week and Space Technology: no, WP's not an aviation newsmagazine.

 * Comment I still don't see any indication of the author's alleged confusion. M1ss1ontomars2k4 15:42, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge this and articles about related incidents with the Dash-8 into something like "2007 Dash-8 landing gear problems". --M1ss1ontomars2k4 15:43, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge - Maybe not notable individually, but immediately after Scandinavian Airlines Flight 2748 SAS grounded all their 33 Dash-8/Q400 planes and, a few hours later, Bombardier recommended that all Dash-8/Q400s with more than 10,000 flights be grounded until further notice. Should be combined to one page. - BillCJ 15:48, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge to the Q400 page since the incident is relevant to the aircraft's design and use. Eusebeus 15:59, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge to Scandinavian Airlines Flight 2748 since that was the incident that actually triggered the grounding, so that is the most notable incident.  AK Radecki Speaketh  16:02, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge per my comments in the other AfD. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 16:36, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep as with the SK2748 page. This is one of two accidents which caused the grounding of the entire Dash 8 Q400 fleet, so it had a major impact on the aviation industry. Sjakkalle (Check!)  06:00, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, I agree with Sjakkalle. Cheers, --Jpkoester1 09:08, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep The incident is clearly newsworthy by itself. A commercial plane lands and propeller parts penetrates the cabin, followed by a fire is luckily not a everyday event. The fire could easily caused a big accident with many fatalities. There is an ongoing investigation and the article will be updated with relevant information at this becomes available.

 * Keep, I agree with Sjakkalle. --Nikolaj Winther 14:06, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Sure, this could have been terrible, but it wasn't; nor was there any story of incredible rescue or heroism. In the aviation world, this is a fender bender.  They grounded the Dash 8's, so merge with Dash 8 or delete.  The problem with the Dash-8 merits a mention on the Dash-8 page, but it dis doesn't merit two, let alone three articles.

 * Keep, then Merge Topics that are not newsworthy can be encyclopedic (and vice versa, i.e. WP:NOT), and casualties are not necessary for notability, so the nom misses on it's two main points, and the final one addresses the contributor, not the contribution, against WP:AGF. Sufficient references to warrant inclusion, but all the related incidents should be merged together. Dhaluza 17:10, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - Well documented and had repercussions on any airline that used the same aircraft (many all over the world) regarding safety standards. --Oakshade 20:41, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Reluctantly, I agree to keep this article, on grounds that a similar incident JetBlue Airways Flight 292 exists and deemed notable. KyuuA4 21:19, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
