The city of Stillwater has a website for their police department and they have a combined group of media reports on the incident. While the only change I can see right now would be to how many were injured, I was wondering if someone could see if this could be used as a citation. --Super Goku V (talk) 05:58, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

wikipedia article or not

There should be a worldwide English wikipedia discussion to define notable articles. There is too much inconsistency in WP. What if three people die in a crash? What if this was not premeditated murder. Why is a TV episode nearly automatically wikipedia material?

For this article, I am not sure it is notable in the English language sense. In this Internet era, you will find a bunch of news coverage. Tough sailor ouch (talk) 15:24, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

For what it's worth, friends of friends in Japan had heard about it in local Japanese news, so it does have international coverage. Here is a Japanese article about it. Plus, for some reason I still don't understand, Chambers was dealt a life sentence, so it seems to have been deemed more than just an accident. 126.64.157.143 (talk) 15:47, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
