Speedy keep articles on school shootings with far fewer victims clearly meet WP:GNG. 3,000+ Google news hits. 2010 SO16 (talk) 18:34, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's just happened. Do you think everything with lots of Google hits should have a page? By that definition there should be a plethora of articles on Kate Middleton's pregnancy. --86.40.98.239 (talk) 18:38, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep - no question. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 18:37, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep': Get this AfD off the page ASAP, this is bullshit. Its notable, we all know it. Mass death.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 18:37, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse me? Is that supposed to be an intelligent argument for keep? --86.40.98.239 (talk) 18:39, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Uh...: This is like not allowing the September 11 attacks page to exist. 24.130.40.143 (talk) 18:38, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Are you serious? You're comparing a school shooting to Sept 11? --86.40.98.239 (talk) 18:39, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep - worse school attack in American history. --Pinkkeith (talk) 18:39, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Close per WP:IAR. We should not waste time going through this AfD process. There is a ton of precedent to have an article on a shooting like this. Erik (talk | contribs) 18:40, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
