Comment: for now. I would normally vote !keep on articles like this, but the article is an especially flagrant violation of , since its probability of passing the |ten year notability test has yet to be determined. It's a regular drunk driving car crash. It was tragic, yes, but there was no more malicious intent behind it than a person who even decides to drive while drunk. There are 10,000 deaths like this every year, yet we don't include articles for them all. At best it mentions a passing mention in the Times Square article

Comment: changing my iVote for several reasons; struck my delete vote near top of page.  one reason is that media coverage on a scale that confers notability.   To me, this looked like tragic but simple Driving under the influence|dwi.

Comment: Per  and (most importantly) . Events that are notable for an encyclopedia are those that have caused, impacted, or were a major contributor to - ''significant'' cultural, historical, governmental, societal, and/or global impact and with lasting effects. Examples would be the Assassination of John F. Kennedy, the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake, and other such significant events. This article not only fails  by a ''long shot'', but also falls under

Comment: per . There is often a rush to invoke  or  as soon as an event unfolds, yet there is nothing that precludes us from keeping the article for another day or two to determine |the persistence of the news coverage. If, either now or in the future, a consensus is reached that this topic does not meet notability guidelines, I would support '''delete and merge into Times Square#2000s–present|Times Square.''' A major accident resulting in numerous injuries in Times Square should, at the very least, be noted in the article specific to Times Square

Comment: as per |Wikipedia is not news. Local auhorities currently consider it as an "accident", and not as an attack. If investigation reveals something, the article can be created again. But wikipedia must not label accidents as attacks or acts of terrorism. I am also going to perform a bold move of the page. —usernamekiran

Comment: it's a relevant event,  only applies if something has very low and localised coverage, (one can think of Alexandr "Russian Deadpool" Karpakov's shooting of girlfriend while on drugs, the leader of a non-notable Feminist & "Skeptic" (Atheist) group shooting someone out of paranoia, a Non-Hispanic Russian immigrant, if it had more coverage could've been notable, but that's a recent event in which I would say that  would apply, this event has been covered by various different sources long after the vthe initial attack.) this event clearly isn't simply "a news story", it's now a part of history with plenty of coverage. --Special:Contributions/42.112.158.223|42.112.158.223
