 * Symbol possible vote.svg New enough, meets core content policies. However, it's well under 1500 characters (about 1100). --Jakob (talk)  01:36, 20 December 2014 (UTC)
 * @Jakec: I know that. Give the article more time to be expanded. The event is current and may rapidly develop further. George Ho (talk) 01:52, 20 December 2014 (UTC)
 * The article is currently 1,516 prose bytes. Perhaps further expansion is needed. --George Ho (talk) 03:24, 20 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Never mind; it is five bytes short of minimum. George Ho (talk) 19:42, 20 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Oh great. Due to WP:BLPCRIME, a suspect's name is omitted, reducing content to 1,322 prose bytes. --George Ho (talk) 03:48, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I must say I am not keen on this being in DYK really.....Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 06:28, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm reading the talk page, and the involved parties support inclusion of the suspect's name. --George Ho (talk) 06:48, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I think I probably support the names but I my reluctance is to have this at DYK. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 10:37, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

The article currently passes the 1,500-character minimum. Why not letting it? --George Ho (talk) 19:40, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg No point holding this up further, IMO. Hook directly cited to RS. Good to go. --Jakob (talk)  19:52, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
