Non-notable pilot in non-notable military aircraft crash. FiendYT ★ 04:45, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Likely a candidate for a rewrite into an aircraft crash article (hehe, now that will mess up vote categorization). I think all aircraft crashes tend to be notable in practice, as they generate coverage. Sources for this may be in Belorussian, but I'd suggest checking with WP:BELARUS and WP:AIRCRAFT before deleting this. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:34, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, tragic but not notable in the long run. Not seeing how a "re-write" would give it substantial enough weight to pass GNG for a stand alone article. Kierzek (talk) 17:16, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete -- I've located a reasonably detailed article from the official newspaper of the Balarus Ministry of Defense link, but this is a WP:BIO1E situation. I don't think the crash is that notable either, even though the article states that the crashes of this type of aircraft are rare. I don't see independent notability for either subject here.

• Delete. Mid-ranking officer killed in an accident. Can't see any especial notability. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:55, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
