Balance
editThis event is important because an Ambassador was killed. Yet, the preponderance of the discussion is about the security agents. I think that it was a good idea to give this material its own page, since it was far too much material for the overall Benghazi article--perhaps now we can correct the weighting of the victims. --Tedperl (talk) 22:13, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
- The reason why the two former SEALs were given their own sections, is because they were deemed WP:BIO1E, even though both met WP:GNG. At one point the content about both individuals immediately after the event was actually far greater than what it is in this sub-article (Doherty, Woods) The other two, were deemed sufficiently notable outside of this event. One due to their gamer status, another due to their notable first in relation to this attack. So I say that in actuality, they should have more content, not less. The other two deceased Americans get their own article. They both met WP:SOLDIER criteria #5, but consensus at the time lead to merge & redirect, as I said.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 02:50, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
- Here is the AfD which anyone can review. Given as how we are no longer restricted by WP:SIZE as this sub-article is not too large, we can provide significant content to all four decesased.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 02:59, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
