Christmas eve massacre → Covina, California massacre
The result of the discussion was Keep. --Allen3 talk 22:11, 7 January 2009 (UTC) An unlikely redirect. I can't see of many people searching for "christmas eve massacre", and the title is a tad POV (not that there is really an alt point of view in this kind of situation).

 * Well, they are calling it Christmas eve massacre. I didn't know they had the article written already. i was gonna start it under this name. (Not that I think is more appropriate although you can't deny the name is pretty..uh..attractive?)--Camilo Sanchez (talk) 22:46, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Change "attractive" for "POV". We are not the mass-media; sensationalising events is not our job. If, when the fallout becomes clear, the media still call it the "christmas eve massacre" then we may have a case for a redirect, just like 9/11, but we cannot see into the future and see if that is the case.

 * Oh, I am not sensationalizing, there is nothing sensational about the title, it was a massacre and it happened on Christmas eve.--Camilo Sanchez (talk) 22:53, 27 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. I myself didn't know what the actual place was called where it took place, so if I was searching for it I'd search for either "Christmas eve massacre" or "Christmas Eve massacre". How is this POV? If other massacres take place or have taken place on Christmas Eve, then we can either delete the redirect or change it to a disambiguation page. ~ A H  1 (TCU) 02:01, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per AstroHurricane001. --User:AlbertHerring Io son l'orecchio e tu la bocca: parla! 06:20, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Would make more sense as a disambiguation page, but until then it's a useful redirect. &mdash;dgies tc 17:06, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
