Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Death of Abigail Taylor
Please don't close this yet the nominator is really misguided here. Let me take some time to explain myself. IF anyone would actually take the time to thoroughly research her death and the pool and safety act they would understand. I did the liberty in doing so already. Abigail Taylor's accident occurred in 2007. Virginia Graeme Baker's accident occurred in 2002. The Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act became a law in on 12/19/2007. http://beta.congress.gov/bill/110th/house-bill/1721/ The house bill was introduced in March of 2007 but presumably died in committee until in July http://beta.congress.gov/bill/110th/house-bill/1721/ The senate bill was introduced and somehow got merged into http://beta.congress.gov/bill/110th/house-bill/6 The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (scroll all the way down to Title XIV: Pool and Spa Safety). Although yes she died after the legislation was passed her injury received lots of attention and her injury is ultimately what caused the legislation to be introduced anyways. Now I can find many news articles on this horrific accident even years after it occurred which makes this event notable and distinguished http://www.foxnews.com/story/2008/03/21/girl-whose-intestines-were-partially-sucked-out-by-swimming-pool-drain-dies/ http://www.minnpost.com/politics-policy/2009/05/klobuchar-meets-abigail-taylor%E2%80%99s-family http://archive.kare11.com/news/article/528666/26/Abbeys-Hope-Remembering-Abigail-Taylor http://www.nbcnews.com/id/19619471#.Ur80DrTKuNU http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/nation/2008-03-21-3982361687_x.htm http://www.twincities.com/life/ci_21537677/turning-point-after-daughters-death-edina-mother-puts http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052748704681904576317032558409082. As for the Abigail Taylor Pool Safety Act that became a law in 2008 in https://www.revisor.leg.state.mn.us/bin/bldbill.php?bill=S2833.4.html&session=ls85 Minnesota. I know this event was very gruesome and sad but remember |Wikipedia is not censored. The parents however, have recieved national attention for their daughters injury so I think they have more to worry about then 'strangers' viewing the details of what happened on Wikipedia. So I think the articles Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act and Death of Abigail Taylor need to be cleaned up, clarified and remain individual articles. I hope this clarifies all the confusion so I rest my case
