I propose merging [[Stephen Paddock]] into [[2017 Las Vegas shooting]]. I think that Stephen Paddock is not notable without the 2017 Las Vegas shooting; and, therefore, the content in his article can be merged into its own [[2017 Las Vegas shooting#Perpetrator|section]] within the article of the 2017 Las Vegas shooting. While the Stephen Paddock article is well-written and even received a [[Wikipedia:B-class criteria|B classification]], much of the content is unrelated to what makes him arguably notable and thus I think can be condensed into a section instead of its own article.[[User:Geeky Randy|Geeky Randy]] ([[User talk:Geeky Randy|talk]]) 23:23, 19 January 2024 (UTC) |

Deleted photo
- I've searched for, but not found, a discussion about removing the (presumed) LVPD photo of Paddock from the article. I don't mean the file deletion discussion; I mean the editorial decision, if there was one, to withdraw it from the article. It can qualify as Fair Use and, in my opinion, it has significant encyclopedic value and should be restored to the article. It remains available online, or could be undeleted. Comments?

- I agree, no reason the photo should have been deleted as far as I can tell, someone should reinsert it. Yodabyte (talk) 10:03, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

Why is the possible ISIS link not mentioned?
It could do with at least a mention. I remember it being mentioned in news articles on this topic. Anyone have a link maybe to ISIS' full statements regarding Paddock? Phil of rel (talk) 02:22, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
- It has its own paragraph in the article, so it is mentioned, and debunked. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 03:42, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
- Okay, didn't see the paragraph, but it's hardly debunked. Muslims do not believe in lots of the Christian scriptures, hence, the claim that he said to his Catholic girlfriend "your God doesn't love me" doesn't really prove he didn't convert to Islam. Edit: delete edit as irrelevant. I guess the atheist descriptor is true. Sorry for the claim that it was irresponsible to say that such claims were debunked.--Phil of rel (talk) 23:10, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
Merge proposal
