Non-notable shooting that resulted in no fatalities and only a few injuries. Any details about the shooting can be covered in a section of the shopping mall article. Dough4872 03:50, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose: SIGCOV exists through the collective coverage provided by CBS, Fox, and Yahoo Sports, already linked. Merging the full details of this shooting to the Christiana Mall article would cause undue weight issues Jack4576 (talk) 04:02, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Why would we care about coverage of a mall shooting from...Yahoo Sports? Nate • (chatter) 21:43, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merge Although the article does meet notability guidelines as it stands, it's not that notabile with only a few sources, and really could be covered by a short paragraph or two in the main mall article without losing any detail. JML1148 (Talk | Contribs) 04:12, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Fails WP:LASTING, WP:GEOSCOPE, etc. News reports during or shortly after the incident are not WP:INDEPTH and do not amount to significant coverage. The mall's main article is an acceptable place for a few sentences about this. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 06:44, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Unless this event takes on wider significance, it seems like a textbook WP:NOTNEWS. --Tserton (talk) 13:05, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete More NOTNEWS from the 'every firearms discharge in public deserves an article' side of en.wiki. Mention of it in the mall article in a short summarized form is appropriate and a redirect is fine, though not required. Nate • (chatter) 21:43, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
