Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Aviation accident task force/AfD record

One of the unintended consequences of Articles for Deletion (AfD) discussions is a sense of community consensus on things like notability. As we build our guidelines, referring back to old closed AfDs on air incidents can be helpful, and thus this record of closed AfDs for reference.

This list may also include air incident articles which had Speedy Deletion ("Speedy") or Proposed Deletion ("PROD") requests added directly to the article without an AfD discussion.

The entries in the following table are also transcluded into a project wide listing which can be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/AfD record.

Purge Take a look at Category:Aviation articles needing attention for articles that have been tagged as in dire need of attention. Check it out!
