Merge it?

[edit]

I'm not sure this can be expanded much further and I've not managed to dig up more than one extra source. A merge to somewhere in History of Wikipedia might be the best thing for this content. Fences&Windows 02:10, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't meet notability or because it's poorly developed? ABC, LA Times and AP articles- and three wikinews articles- seems to cover that. There is a lot of information that can be added to the article, I just haven't done it yet. Basket of Puppies 02:31, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I think a topic cobbled together from a couple of news stories may fall foul of WP:NOTNEWS. None of the sources talks in general about threats of violence or suicide made on Wikipedia, so WP:SYNTH may also be an issue. Wikinews doesn't count towards notability.

Yeah, then I guess it's ok to merge. Basket of Puppies 21:37, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
