Sparks Middle School shooting

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

WP:EVENT not satisfied. No lasting effect. Just another sad but average murder. List_of_school_shootings_in_the_United_States says all there is to know. Beerest355 Talk 20:50, 4 November 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete. No indication of any lasting significance, the location of the shooting and the age of the shooter do not attach any particular notability to the incident. Fails WP:NOT. WWGB (talk) 22:29, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete should be added to List_of_school_shootings_in_the_United_States PeteBaltar (talk) 00:34, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep PeteBaltar, it is already on that list. It also obviously happened in the 2010s, not 2000s. Also, this is a pretty notable school shooting case and many people around the country have heard about it. Shootings at middle schools are rare. If this should be deleted, then why should Chardon High School shooting, Weston High School shooting, and SuccessTech Academy shooting still remain? Nobody except the shooter died at SuccessTech Academy, and only one person died at Weston High School. They also did not receive too much media attention after they happened.

 * Delete per WP:NOTNEWS. Anything worth noting could be merged into the appropriate school shooting article.LM2000 (talk) 23:45, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
