 * Comment - Way too soon to assess article against WP:EVENT, however as it is likely to be notable given its impact and coverage in a diverse range of sources, this is likely going to be a keep vote from myself. MaxnaCarta (talk) 05:04, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
 * What impact did it have, exactly? Three injuries, not even serious ones, and all the park did was close early for the day? This is a bog-standard incident of gun violence in America, the most gun-violent country in the world. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 05:11, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. Way WP:TOOSOON to begin with, clear violation of WP:NOTNEWS. As I said above, this is an isolated incident with 3 injuries and no fatalities. Unless the shooter turns out to be John F. Kennedy, this is going to fall off the news cycle in about 24 hours and have zero to minimal lasting impact. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 05:14, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Per nomminator. Also, not particularly notable at this current time, is it? Nythar T . C 05:16, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Conditional withdraw per article creator converting this into a redirect. The condition being that I'll nominate this article again if anyone reverts it. --I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 05:43, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
