Ape in heels

I see now that one person has previously removed content[1] related to what I have just added. I found a few international sources and cited them. If this is making national and international news, I see no reason to exclude a summary of the information. Biosthmors (talk) pls notify me (i.e. {{U}}) while signing a reply, thx 16:36, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Millions of stories make national and international news that are not encylopedic. This is more of a "five minutes of fame" story. Or infamy, in this case. It's a blip on the radar screen that will almost surely have no lasting notability. 2605:A000:FFC0:D8:29F7:758D:E55E:5672 (talk) 04:11, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I am talking about notability of the content e.g. noteworthiness (WP:NOTEWORTHY), which applies to all content within an article. This incident, while interesting and newsworthy, is not encylopedic. It's fine for a newspaper or tabloid, but not an encylopedia. Read #2 "News Reports" at WP:NOTNEWSPAPER, and WP:DUE and content policies. 2605:A000:FFC0:D8:29F7:758D:E55E:5672 (talk) 17:09, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
