This article was nominated for deletion on 15 October 2009. The result of the discussion was merge and redirect to Colorado balloon incident.

Text and/or other creative content from Falcon Heene was copied or moved into Colorado balloon incident with this edit. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

I propose that this article be made more about the incident overall and the Heene family rather then simply deleting it. It is newsworthy. Michaelh2001 (talk) 20:09, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• I think it's newsworthy, and Wikipedia-worthy. I'd like it if the article could keep the name, as he has done more than just have this balloon incident. If it is revealed that the boy was not in the balloon, then I think it should be merged into the Colorado 2009 balloon incident article. However, if he was indeed in there, then I would like that article to be merged into this one. Wuffyz 20:32, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
