Christopher Dorner - A Last Stand
editWith regard to this edit, where IP 121.214.57.181 added content to the article about a 4chan video game mod based on Dorner, I have removed it for not being noteworthy. Doesn't improve our understanding of the subject, and if we were to include every 4chan "project" that got some attention, we'd have many more crappy articles.

- Without taking a position yet on whether that deletion was correct, I note that this was covered in significant independent sources: KTLA [1]; New York Daily News [2]; Los Angeles Daily News [3]; Daily Mail [4]; LA Weekly [5]; USA Today [6]. --Arxiloxos (talk) 00:15, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
- An appreciated note, @Arxiloxos:. The content submitted seems to be copypasta from one of many sources (Google search), so that's somewhat problematic. I'll gladly yield if other community members feel a modified version of this content is warranted. I will note that the 4chan Doom 3 mod content contains racist overtones, ("Nigga Nigga Nigga" song, buckets of KFC fried chicken as power-ups, etc.) Though we do not censor, I'm not sure what the encyclopedic value is of including this information since it does not improve our understanding of Dorner or of his motivations for violence. It seems to parody them, if anything. Some news agencies picked up on the sensationalist content, and that's fine, but that doesn't automatically warrant inclusion. Anyhow, I do appreciate the note and the extra sources, Arx, and I await other feedback. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 03:01, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
