Contested prod so here we are. Article has issues per WP:NOTNEWS. While unfortunate, this incident is quite common. See here for some articles from 2019 and 2020. I think methanol poisoning incidence are newsworthy yes but not as a Wikipedia article as the most reaction you'll get is either a temporary ban or a a warning given to local distillers. --Lenticel (talk) 00:35, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm fine with redirect per WP:ATD. However, I think list of methanol poisoning incidents would be a better target. --Lenticel (talk) 09:13, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
[Edited] Merge {Sorry, i mean} Delete and {i suggest} transfer its content (not necessarily the entire texts) to target aforementioned page. The problem is that the article, regardless of having reliable sources, fails WP:N in the first place. It happened that these incidents occurred in a span of less than two weeks, while each of them might be taken as headline story by some media outlets due to casualty counts; yet these incidents had no reported (or had little) impact to the country's lambanog production industry, as well as no known long-term effects. By the way, please take a look on my searches in Google: (1) and (2). Based on these, aside from tallies, some of later events include FDA statement; other results indicate that similar incidents occurred a year later. A 2020 article and this study might not enough.—Raider000 (talk) 12:17, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
