Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/List of fatal dog attacks in the United States (3rd nomination)

The public has a right to these statistics and information which are based in fact. It shouldn’t be removed or obscured because of someone’s beliefs, views, opinions or sensitivities. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1011:B16B:D5DE:BD4D:69A6:30A1:FD95 (talk) 03:11, 10 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Agreed. It is most likely a pit bull fanatic who wants to have this useful article deleted. Please keep it up! 2603:6011:8CF0:5CF0:C19D:B680:8D41:66 (talk) 16:04, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

This comprehensive compilation should not be erased from public access.
I just saw that someone attempts to get this article removed from Wikipedia. This is a comprehensive list of all serious incidents in human/dog interactions in the US and lists the breeds involved. It is well documented and referenced, so there is no justifiable reason to remove it. Wanderwonders (talk) 18:26, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Keep
We need to keep factual data. 198.52.236.193 (talk) 18:59, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Keep it
I see no reason to remove an article that is listing facts without any sensationalism. This is useful information to those looking into owning a potentially dangerous dog breed or to those needing statistics to create local laws that ban ownership of such breeds. 2603:6011:8CF0:5CF0:C19D:B680:8D41:66 (talk) 16:06, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

Before posting here
The deletion discussion is on the Project Page, not here. Assuming that the above and below posters meant to participate in the AfD, I am copying the above and below to the deletion discussion so these comments can be considered. Rublamb (talk) 16:45, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

Not sure if we should keep it.
[I know this is not the deletion discussion, but I am unable to comment there, so I'll have to be here.] The article is good, but I'll have to rewrite like 70% of the fatalities because of a grand connection to all of the 2010s fatalities most likely needed the removal of several fatalities that will need rewriting. Even the 2020s were affected, but I've already started progress on that. And my Further Fatalities was removed by a user I forgot the name of. I'll also have to rewrite the deaths that couldn't get into the yearly sections before the deletion of that section. CComp542Version372 (talk) 16:55, 17 April 2024 (UTC)


 * This is a sockpuppet account. Rublamb (talk) 19:56, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
 * The new account that disagrees with you is a sockpuppet. The new accounts that agree with you are all copy/pasted into the discussion as valid contributors. &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 20:20, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
 * What is going on with this page? Is there some reason all those new/low quality !votes couldn't vote on the main page, or is there an off wiki Canvass that might discoverable with backlinks? Anyway, it would have been just as well to ignore those votes and not to copypaste them onto the main page. I guess I'm an elitist here, but someone who can't find the right page is unlikely to be particularly familiar with deletion rationales, one of the most complicated areas of Wikipedia's PAGs.

 * This. --Tryptofish (talk) 20:39, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
 * @Rhododendrites: I don't look for issues with accounts as I assume good faith. However, this account was noted as a second account for User talk:CComp542Veraion19 previously in the Afd discussion by User:Conyo14 and by the account owner here User talk:CComp542Version372. Rublamb (talk) 20:45, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the added context. I generally agree with what Geogene says above. &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 20:47, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
 * That makes sense and goes along with WP:MEATPUPPET. I was unaware of the status of these accounts when I shared the above with the AfD. Rublamb (talk) 20:51, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
 * What is a sockpuppet account CComp542Version372 (talk) 13:35, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
 * what is a sockpuppet account??? CComp542Version372 (talk) 13:36, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I'm not trying to make this a sockpuppet account. I just made this one so that I can make edits anywhere. CComp542Version372 (talk) 13:41, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
