I nominated this page for speedy deletion because a regularly-scheduled airline flight is not a notable subject, and the event that is being written about is not notable. Please see WP:NOT#NEWS. Janus303 ( talk) 04:03, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
User:Janus303 has requested reasons for removing the notability tag added twice. The article meets all five criteria from the General notability guideline. I will remove the notability tag shortly unless there are objections. This is a notable incident covered internationally and on the front page of major national newspapers. Jokestress ( talk) 18:08, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
Normally I would say yes, delete -- but Qatar happens not to be backing down, but either way, that clash would make it notable. However, the title of this article should be different, to reflect that notability. There is nothing notable about the flight number itself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.254.157.194 ( talk) 22:30, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
The WSJ is one of several major news outlets which have published analysis of this incident. The quotation in the article is from the subhead of the WSJ editorial. Relevant passages below:
Israeli security personnel have great discretion in singling people out for questioning. They take many behavioral factors into account, from how people travel to body language and eye contact. The U.S. has some "behavior detection officers" to help keep air travel safe, but it needs many more, with better training. The case of the Qatari diplomat at least establishes the principle that egregious behavior justifies authorities being able to use their judgment to deter potential terrorists....
The broader lesson of this incident is that Americans will support reasonable antiterror procedures, even ones that depend on an intelligent use of judgment, even when suspicious behavior turns out not to be terrorism. If the antics of the diplomat from Qatar now help give U.S. authorities courage to assess behavior along with other information when targeting terrorists, he will at least have served some community service.

Per the closing admin on the AfD and per WP:BOLD, I have moved this article from United Airlines Flight 663 to United Airlines Flight 663 incident. As several editors have mentioned, the article is about the specific incident vs. the flight in general, and the original title using the name the involved diplomat seems inappropriate. Comments welcome. Jokestress ( talk) 16:59, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

I aded a link to the diplomat, Mohammed Yacoub Al Madadi. It is a redlink, now. Is he notable? I'd say heis on the cusp. Redlinks stay if the link is potentially notable.
Plus, this is how disambiguation works. He is notable enough to merit a link to the Mohammed Yaqoub (disambiguation) page, to disambiguate readers from his namesakes. Both the disambiguation page and this page are supposed to share a redlink. Geo Swan ( talk) 22:26, 30 October 2017 (UTC)
