Sarah Palin E-Mail-Hack
- Sarah Palin E-Mail-Hack (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
Misplaced Pages is not a newspaper. This incident is being used to make attacks on the father of the person who is being investigated by the FBI, and has nothing to do with the father. The article was created by a user who was edit warring to include the information in the father's article, but was reverted and got a 3RR warning. Corvus cornixtalk 07:24, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. The incident is already given its appropriate weight and detail at Sarah Palin and 4chan, and the complicated and inaccurate spelling of the page title here makes redirection non-productive. With regard to including information in the article on the (presumed) hacker's father, I don't think it would be problematic if Mike Kernell actually had a detailed article, but you are correct that as it stands it would give the incident severe undue weight. --erachima talk 07:41, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- Kernell had nothing whatsoever to do with it. His SON did. The extent this is mentioned in Kernell's bio should be a one-liner link to this article. If Kernell's son were notable (beyond this one incident), it would make sense to include it in an article about the son ... but including it in an article about the father would be like turning George HW Bush's bio into an article about George W Bush's presidency. --B (talk) 15:36, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

- Keep and contextualize. There seems to be plenty of sources for this and the article is how many hours old? The US elections are at a fevered pitch with all manner of nonsense getting overblown. This is a promising article about the intersection of hackers and politics with a guarantee that like everything else during the elections it will be examined in infinite detail and reported in all major media. -- Banjeboi 08:50, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NOTNEWS, possible WP:COATRACK and WP:BLP, etc. Misplaced Pages is not here to press any agenda or to report the news. Jasynnash2 (talk) 08:51, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- Delete for now, while the investigation is in progress. Not everybody reads the news all the time, and if this were somehow to end up in court, I would not want any juror to have first heard about it on Misplaced Pages. 69.140.152.55 (talk) 12:01, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- Keep and redirect to Wikileaks, where the subject is briefly mentioned. --Reinoutr (talk) 13:10, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. Already covered in the main biographical article on Palin (no opinion on the father article) and nothing to suggest this has lasting notability. If this turns out to be the Watergate of the 21st century, then let's revisit it later. I agree the title used isn't condusive to a redirect. Someone wanting info will go to Palin's article first. I also have concerns from a WP:BLP perspective here. 23skidoo (talk) 13:11, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- Delete I agree with Corvus that this isn't much more than an attack page on the father of the perpetrator, disguised as an article about computer security. While the incident itself will probably be noted in future stories about identity theft, this prank will never become a "-gate" for anyone. Since this incident is covered elsewhere, and since it's unlikely that "E-Mail-Hack" will ever be used as as a redirect, delete. Mandsford (talk) 13:40, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- Delete, Misplaced Pages is not the news. Stifle (talk) 15:15, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- Keep but rename to Sarah Palin e-mail hacking incident - this is a pretty serious event in the campaign and, from a BLP standpoint, keeps Mike Kernell from being nothing but a coatrack about his son's alleged offense. The title, though, is not all that spectacular. --B (talk) 15:32, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
