  • Keep. Per WP:RAPID this 11 fatality crash (which included some fairly notable people) on a private international flight from 11 March 2018 is receiving wide international coverage as of 12 March. We are unable to assess future coverage at this time as it requires a BALL, and coverage up to now has been wide, hence RAPID applies. One should also note that this crash passes the criteria set forth in WP:AIRCRASH (yes, an essay) as the Bombardier Challenger 604 has a MTOW of 21,863kg where as the cutoff is 5,670 kg or less for light aircraft, which the Challenger 604 exceeds even in its empty weight of 12,315 kg.Icewhiz (talk) 14:32, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Enough media coverage. Important people on board. Rare crash of a Bombardier. (Gabinho>:) 15:51, 12 March 2018 (UTC))[reply]

Comment It's the first time that I read something like "user page is brought to you by a Florida Corporation and equal opportunity employer" on a Wikipedia user page. Wakari07 (talk) 19:07, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It's important to note that the "notable" person who died is also at AfD after their page was created in the wake of this incident. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mina Başaran. My vote is still "snow keep"; a plane crash with double-digit casualties in the news is unlikely to be deleted immediately. power~enwiki (π, ν) 21:08, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I think also deleting Mina Başaran would still more reduce the usability of Wikipedia. Besides, the templates are ugly. Wakari07 (talk) 21:41, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
