Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Church bus and school bus safety
This page is an archive of the proposed deletion of the article below. Further comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or on a Votes for Undeletion nomination). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result of the debate was ambiguous. On one hand there is agreement that the article should not stay as it is. On the other hand there is no consensus to discard everything here. I will therefore in one sense "remove" the article by making it a redirect to school bus, while preserving the history. Sjakkalle (Check!) 10:16, 11 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
The first half of the article is about the Bus accident at Carrollton, Kentucky in 1988 on which Wikipedia already has an article. The second half is a load of safety instructions, advice and suggestions about buses -- school and church buses to be precise. Consider this comment by the author of the article on its talk page "... I am writing this to everyone in memory of the victims of the school (church) bus tragedy which occurred at Carrollton, Kentucky on 14 May 1988." Dr Gangrene 19:45, 2 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Although I think the article should be deleted, there may be some valuable content here that could be incorporated into other articles. Dr Gangrene 14:54, 3 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Wikipedia is not a memorial, nor is it a how-to. The first half is a duplicate of another article, so a delete is in order after any merges are done. Sonic Mew | talk to me 16:49, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
- Your vote is ill-formed. Merging content requires that the original be kept. (perhaps we need a "tombstone" template for such articles). Gazpacho 17:29, 3 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Maybe the safety instructions can be transwikified somewhere?- Mgm|(talk) 23:40, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. I think everything is already covered in Bus accident at Carrollton, Kentucky in 1988 and School bus. --Carnildo 23:58, 3 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
