Revision as of 22:31, 28 April 2009
Updates
I won't edit this because of the editing tag, but this article gives a lot more information about the incident, for example the name of the White House official who approved it, the fact that local law enforcement were notified but asked not to inform the public, the way the news spread (by youtube video), and the statements of outrage made by Bloomberg and Obama. I think we should nail down what actually happened first, and avoid undue coverage of all the recriminations - talk is cheap and politicians and news outlets do a lot of talking. But a few choice quotes might be helpful: "felony stupidity" is pretty quoteworthy. It's too early to tell but I'll guess that this story has legs, as they say, and that people will remember the incident for many years (i.e. it's pretty notable). Regarding the name, I'm guessing that the popular media will find a clever name for this within a few days. Cheers, Wikidemon (talk) 16:49, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you for the link. Also, if you think of a better name for the article, please feel free to change it. Grundle2600 (talk) 19:09, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
- The under construction tag means that anyone who wants to can add to the article. The more info the better!Grundle2600 (talk) 21:29, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
- Not exactly. The "under construction tag" indicates that one or more editors are working on this article stub. Only an in use template would ask editors not to interfere for a certain time while one editor is working on major changes (to avoid edit conflicts), although it doesn't prohibit editing by others.
- Basically the "under construction tag" was created (by Wikidemon, if I'm not mistaken) to prevent premature AFD nominations or simply said, to give potential legitimate articles a chance to evolve beyond their initial creation.--The Magnificent Clean-keeper (talk) 22:10, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
- You're right. I got confused there. Still think there's a lasting notability concern here. It's really seems to run afoul of WP:NOTNEWS, and perhaps belongs under 9/11#Long-term effects as a subheading "Psychological effects". –xeno 22:27, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
