I think that the article should be renamed to include the company name as in the case of the [[PEPCON disaster]]. After all, those injured and killed were concentrated to the company and not spread over the city (correct me if am wrong). My suggestion [[Falk corporation explosion]]. --<font color="blue" typeface="Arial"><b>[[User:Erikssond|rxnd]]</b> ( [[User talk:Erikssond|t]] | [[Special:Emailuser/Erikssond|&#8364;]] | [[Special:Contributions/Erikssond|c]] )</font> 11:03, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

:Whilst, generally speaking, I would opose such a move, in this instance I am going to (albeit, a little reluctantly) agree since it puts the article into a better context, as you rightly say. Also, this is an encyclopaedic record, so we have to think of it in the terms of a historic event (even if it is tagged as a current event), meaning that in 5-10 years time someone may not immediatly be reminded simply by the present title about the subject, but the one suggested is more likely to jog people's memory, which is what a descriptive title should, by definition, do. However, I'd recommend leaving the move 'till the AfD is complete, just in case it screws it up in unforseen ways (but I wouldn't expect that anyway).
