Disputed PROD. Fails WP:GNG: non-notable crash of a military aircraft. No Wikinotable people involved, no evidence of changes in procedures or policies, no WP:PERSISTENCE. The fact the wreck still exists does not confer notability, and Wikipedia is not a memorial. The Bushranger One ping only 02:01, 15 April 2014 (UTC) reply

  • It is written about in the gladstone observer 2014, by tourism and events QLD, in the NT News (3 Sep 1994), by the local council, in the park's management plan, in The Canberra Times (31 August 1994), in the book "The hidden chapters : untold stories of Australians at war in the Pacific - Robert Piper"....and I'm bored typing. Keep - it is clearly written about sufficiently for an article. - Peripitus (Talk) 05:49, 15 April 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. There seems to be enough reliable sources. The wreckage has become an attraction within the park. If deleted it could become a section within the Kroombit Tops National Park article. - Shiftchange ( talk) 12:30, 15 April 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Merge and redirect to Kroombit Tops National Park. Just an aircraft wreck. Yes, it's been written about in local media. So what? -- Necrothesp ( talk) 13:57, 16 April 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Delete no notability in the original accident and its just an artifact in a park and not really notable for a stand-alone article. MilborneOne ( talk) 18:27, 17 April 2014 (UTC) reply

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Citations do not make a topic notable, only verifiable. The WikiProject aircraft long ago decided that individual aircraft and their histories are not notable as such, it is only the wider context that can bring notability. — Cheers, Steelpillow ( Talk) 12:50, 24 April 2014 (UTC) reply
...and very few of those citations are actually for this Beautiful Betsy. Moswento talky 13:21, 24 April 2014 (UTC) reply
