All the coverage is from September 2013. No lasting impact or coverage to meet WP:EVENT. LibStar (talk) 00:53, 26 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Sheppey Crossing#Incidents. There actually is continued coverage (See this 2015 journal article [1] and this brief mention [2], bunch of news articles up through 2025 [3][4][5][6]), but that's only going to let me add a paragraph or two to the crash article. Also, given the crash article is mostly already largely duplicative of the incidents section in the main bridge article, and with a nod to WP:NOPAGE, I think coverage of the crash works better in the main article on the bridge. That being said, if the bridge article gets too busy, then we can always spin the crash article back out at a later date, as I do think it squeaks past NEVENT.

• Redirect to Sheppey Crossing#Incidents. Information is already available there. Fade258 (talk) 01:18, 26 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect per GLL/WP:NOPAGE. Can always be recreated if necessary. GoldRomean (talk) 20:58, 26 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Sheppey Crossing#Incidents: There is not sufficient information to warrant a standalone article, and a stub serves no purpose when the Sheppey Crossing page already has a dedicated section to cover incidents. GeekBurst (talk) 00:08, 27 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
