I don't feel this is notable: a short incident that got a bit of news coverage but hardly worth an encyclopedia article. On the other hand, well done for providing a range of references. Blythwood (talk) 08:37, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
- Would you mind elaborating on why you think this article doesn't meet WP:GNG? There are many sources cited that all significantly and independently cover the topic (except for maybe the first one). Is it because you think the sources are unreliable? Eventhorizon51 (talk) 09:03, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
- It doesn't seem to meet notability to me as a one-off, isolated event. There was a case some years back when a cinema accidentally played the trailer to Nymphomaniac to kids attending a Disney film. Would that be notable enough to get its own article? I've looked at the sources and most of them seem to be just aggregation with no additional reporting, which makes me inclined to support deletion. Blythwood (talk) 09:20, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
- Delete As a lurid and unusual event this got quite a bit of news coverage. However "WP is not news." No lasting importance. Borock (talk) 10:50, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
