My comment https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Aviation&diff=949612106&oldid=949608568 here was an expression of frustration that whenever non-notable aircraft crashes are brought to AfD  they are inevitably opposed by editors unfamiliar with Wikipedia policies and also unfamiliar with aircraft accidents and the lack of enduring changes as a result of most light aircraft and military aircraft accidents. Instead what we see is that consensus and policy gets drowned out by "gosh an airplane crashed, we must have an article in that!" I never hear that about car accidents, truck or bus accidents, motorcycle accidents or even bicycle or boating accidents. This is solely because editors rely on coverage in the general, non-aviation media, which, as I noted, breathlessly reports on aircraft accidents in a way that they do not report on other transportation accidents. This is just due to media sensationalism and nothing else. We are an encyclopedia, we don't need to let non-specialized media reports decide our notably for us and in fact we have a policy on that: PAPER, which explains: "most newsworthy events do not qualify for inclusion
