Long story short I have been able to put a link in the DTW article for the land area statement you needed cited. It's a slightly different link than normal because the website that I normally link to has been redesigned and is having some problems whcih i'm trying to figure out.

New message from Chidino edit

Hi, and thank you for the kind wishes. As I noted in the O'Hare edit history, "...causes (for crashes) are not listed in this article. If causes are necessary, that should be done on a dedicated Wiki page for that incident." This helps to keep the section a) manageable and b) non-controversial. In addition, the section is described as "Major crashes or incidents", and I'm not sure these qualify, with no identifying flight numbers or memories of them; I don't mean to minimize the loss of anyone, but Wikipedia can't possibly track every loss of life. I defer to your judgement that they should be included. (Frankly, the very latest "incident" added to the O'Hare page doesn't qualify -- the AA 767 whose #2 exploded during its takeoff run, "injuring" one evacuating passenger -- but since there's YouTube video, it's a "major thing". Don't think I'm allowed to say what I think of that.) As mentioned in other edits, this is meant to be an introductory article and not the encyclopedia of O'Hare. Hope the explanation helps.
