There's "coverage", but as an article subject, completely non-notable. Content can be replicated into the article on Donald Trump. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 04:38, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, also say no to causing trouble Unfortunately, the nominator of the AFD is in a heated argument with me so this should be speedily closed and reopened only if another editor submits it. Keep because it has notable coverage as the PRIMARY topic of several articles, not just a passing reference. Most private planes do NOT have coverage but this one is very special and does meet WP guidelines. Whiskeymouth (talk) 05:07, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Doesn't meet notability guidelines. Include in article on Trump. VanEman (talk) 06:37, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy keep Article subject has significant coverage in multiple reliable resources, and thus meets WP:GNG. As per Whiskeynouth, the timing of this AFD is a bit suspect. Nominator should take care to follow WP:BEFORE. I feel the nomination should either be withdrawn or closed as speedy keep. AFD is no place to start drama because one may be in a dispute with another editor. Please let us judge articles on their own merit.

Please discuss articles and edits, not editors. When one chooses the opposite, that's when drama starts. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 12:08, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, Fouetté rond de jambe en tournant. Unfortunately, per WP:AfD guidelines, an AfD nom cannot be withdrawn once a Delete !vote has been cast, which VanEman cast above your withdrawal request. Cheers! {{u|Checkingfax}} {Talk} 17:34, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Wrong, replicating it to the Donald Trump article would create a firestorm because he is running for President. It would be considered so different from his biography that it would be considered pointed to add. Try adding the cars that Hillary drove to her article and it will be speedily deleted from the article. No, don't mix politics and Wikipedia. Whiskeymouth (talk) 03:01, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Whiskeymouth: Thank you so much for your expansive, and illuminating, answer as I most certainly didn’t think of the political ramifications regarding this article. Picomtn (talk) 07:27, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I'm not sure where I've expressed my opinion on this matter. Can you please provide a link? --Eleassar my talk 18:33, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Eleassar: Sorry about that, I mixed you up with the nominator for deletion of this article while I was at the same time talking to you about another one. Thanks. Picomtn (talk) 07:27, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per the Daily Mail source (as painful as it is, it satisfies GNG). I would discount sources that are newer than a year or so as WP:INHERITED coverage of Trump's 2016 presidential campaign, but that does not empty the reference section. Not much opposition to a merge and redirect to Donald Trump, but the target article is one of those from the "permanently too long" category. Standalone notability + no good way to merge = article.

  • Keep – and expand with any solid references among all those references. The batch of references in the References section needs to be refactored to be inline, or they are nearly meaningless and at this point acting as a defacto bibliography. For the number of editors involved in this article, it is poorly written, and poorly constructed, but that is not grounds for deletion. Needs a good dose of WP:BEFORE and WP:ATD.

  • Keep per the above. I agree that a merge would probably be better overall, but the Trump article itself is a monster. So this is a clear keep. Maybe look at it again once the election hubbub dies down? UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 17:50, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. It's notable. And this appears to be a bad faith request. FHB7695 (talk) 19:28, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but reconsider title: it seems "Trump Force One" was simply a whimsical name coined by the media that has been repeated. There seems to be little indication that Trump himself (or indeed anyone other than a dozen or so political journalists) is referring to the plane by this name. astro (talk) 21:19, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete' actually as I myself would've closed this as SNOW keep given the current AfD state but I will have to say Delete because none of this is actually suggesting solid and permanent independent notability. SwisterTwister talk 23:19, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - not notable. --Ches (talk) (contribs) 09:03, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Delete - Seriously, a plane owned by a millionaire warrants itself an article? No, it shouldn't, most likely it should be put onto Donald Trump's personal page. What doesn't make sense is that references 7-26 aren't anywhere in the article (which is the majority of references that apparently make this pass WP:GNG), in fact those references either poke fun at Trump, talk about his plane with no in depth coverage (or don't even talk about this plane), or are just photos of the plane. I suspect WP:NOT. Lastly, Mr. Trump has a fleet of aircraft at his possession, so what makes the Boeing 757 significantly more notable than the other fleet?

    • Comment We have a List of individual aircraft which includes quite a few privately owned or business planes. This is the single plane which Trump has been using to get around in this campaign cycle, not the rest of his "fleet" (which by the way consists of two helicopters and a tiny cessna-like thing). astro (talk) 15:46, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
