The result was redirect to Death and state funeral of Ronald Reagan#Events in Washington. Redirects are cheap! (non-admin closure) Winged Blades ^Godric 13:28, 1 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This was a one-day news story that fails notability under both WP:LASTING and WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE OCNative (talk) 04:36, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:NOTNEWS....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 11:29, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Death and state funeral of Ronald Reagan#Events in Washington, where the incident is already mentioned. Alternatively, delete and convert the incoming links to point there if the title is deemed unsearchable (which it very well may be). ansh666 16:18, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect or Delete per Ansh666's reasoning - GretLomborg (talk) 18:23, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as failing WP:LASTING and WP:NOTNEWS; no redirect per Ansh666's reasoning, not a likely search. --Bejnar (talk) 21:05, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect, allows bluelinks elsewhere to be sent where they need to be. Montanabw^(talk) 16:48, 19 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • There are only three incoming links from mainspace, one of which is the proposed redirect target and another of which is only in a long "see also" list, so it's not as big a deal as it may seem. ansh666 19:08, 19 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Cmment No need for redirect on that basis, as only remaining blue link is a see also, which can be removed after the Afd. --Bejnar (talk) 19:01, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect as a plausible search term. The incident was well-covered at the time, enough that someone might search for it, but not enough for its own article. Smartyllama (talk) 14:23, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
