2010 Ahmadi Martyrs

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable one-time event. Unfortunately, terrorist attacks occur every day. We can't have an article on each one.  Nolelover  It's football season!  18:14, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Delete per WP:NOTMEMORIAL, WP:NOTADVOCATE, and possibly WP:NOT and WP:NOT. Already exists at May 2010 attacks on Ahmadi mosques in Lahore. Changed per Mandsford's reasoning below.  Nolelover  It's football season!  16:38, 13 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete, per nom, and WP:NOT (not a memorial site). Wuh  Wuz  Dat  18:16, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment "Unfortunately, terrorist attacks occur every day. We can't have an article on each one." It appears that neither the author nor the nominator are aware that the event is already well covered in May 2010 attacks on Ahmadi mosques in Lahore, so there's no need to entertain people's thoughts about whether the murder of 80 people is more notable here than in Pakistan.  There's no reason to keep, but in this case, I can't say that the nominator has actually offered a valid reason for a delete.  Mandsford 14:42, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
 * You're right, and I should have researched that better. However, I assumed that a incredibly POV article like that was exaggerating, and didn't think that it was anything other then an obvious WP:NOT. However, in light of it's apparent notability, I'm changing my reasoning.  Nolelover  It's football season!  16:34, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per nominator. New author was probably not aware of WP:NOTMEMORIAL, a rule that may seem harsh at first, but is a necessity in an encyclopedia that anyone can edit.  It's been applied more equally than any other policy.  Hence, we have no articles attempting to list all of the persons who died in the 9/11 attacks, nor in the bombing of Hiroshima.
