An airline article that provides no information on the airline but is about one non-notable incident, expired prod that was not deleted and now challenged MilborneOne (talk) 23:56, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Non-notable air carrier. If this information belongs anywhere it should be included in the Michael Jackson series of articles, not as a stand-alone air carrier article. - Ahunt (talk) 13:43, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - the airline does not seem to be notable, having no significant coverage outside of this incident. An article on Michael Jackson secret recording incident (or something similar) may be appropriate, but even that would have issues with WP:NOTNEWS.

Weak Keep. Clearly the incident is notable and the fact that what happened brought down the company is notable. So outright deletion is not acceptable. The question is should this be merged into Jackson's article or kept separate? Jackson's article is already way too long so adding this does not make sense. Moving to a new name? Maybe.

Delete or merge there is no lasting notability for the airline and there is not enough that can be encyclopaedically said about the incident for a stand alone article. If there is an apropriate article about minor controversies related to Michael Jackson, or recording without permission, then maybe something could be merged there, but this title would not make a useful redirect.
