Editing Talk:Longfellow Boom (section)

== Merge proposal ==
I propose merging [[Longfellow Boom]] into [[Longfellow, Minneapolis]]. I think the content in Longfellow Boom can easily be explained in the context of this article with some trimming. The booms are only notable in the context of the community. [[User:Minnemeeples|Minnemeeples]] ([[User talk:Minnemeeples|talk]]) 22:52, 2 January 2026 (UTC)

:'''Oppose''' (article creator) it meets [[WP:GNG]] and other such phenomena have similar articles, such as [[Bloop]], [[The Hum]], and [[Forest Grove Sound]]. ~[[User:Darth Stabro|Darth Stabro]]<sup>[[User_talk:Darth_Stabro|Talk]]&nbsp;•&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Darth_Stabro|Contribs]]</sup> 22:59, 2 January 2026 (UTC)
::[[Bloop]] and [[The Hum]] are non-local phenomena. [[Forest Grove Sound]], a one-time local incident, has an unresolved deletion discussion on its talk page from February 2025; if not deleted it should likely be merged with [[Forest Grove, Oregon]] as fails [[WP:SUSTAINED]] and succumbs to [[WP:SBST]]. The [[Longfellow, Minneapolis]] article could easily absorb the content from the [[Longfellow Boom]] without undue weight.

:'''Support''' merge per [[WP:NOPAGE]]. There's no reason for this one aspect of Longfellow to be separate from the Longfellow article.

:'''Oppose.''' The concept is individually notable unto itself per [[WP:GNG]] which is enough of a policy reason for me. Personally speaking as a former resident of the area—this is more so my own stance and not a technical point—I can see a possibility where readers outside of our neighborhood may be interested in the Longfellow Boom itself as a mysterious occurrence while not at all being interested in Longfellow, Minneapolis. In that case, I support its existence as a standalone page of interest separate from the neighborhood. [[User:Phibeatrice|Phibeatrice]] ([[User talk:Phibeatrice|talk]]) 22:14, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
