Talk:1994 Scotland RAF Chinook crash

While the original purpose of this article was important, now that it's been decided (July 2011) that the pilots were innocent and the crash was caused by some fault in the aircraft, does it have any further value? All it's doing is acting as a source for information that we're not very interested in updating and could become seriously misleading.

I'd propose that the article be replaced by a marker to say that there is no longer any reason to consider this a "Deep State" interference with our right to information, and interested readers would now be better checking the article in the other place (to which we could give a link).

In fact, this is a procedure that, in the interests of sharing the best possible information, we might care to adopt whenever controversies of this kind are solved. It's rare for this to happen, but if we do our job better, then more of these cases could be solved and put to bed. Toolbox 19:30, 4 September 2011 (IST)
