2011 Douglas shooting

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I imagine there will be claims that the sporadic updates by largely regional sources constitutes "ongoing coverage". But really, it is WP:NOTNEWS and there wasn't any WP:INDEPTH analysis. This incident simply did not receive substantial national or international attention or historical significance. Heck, there weren't even any routine repercussions from the investigation or civil suit; the shooting was deemed justified. Of course, no one has to be charged to make an incident notable but it certainly would have created some case of significance in an otherwise unnotable event.

 * Delete per nom. The shooting and death are not of lasting significance. Clarityfiend (talk) 01:07, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete -- I'm not seeing lasting significance or societal impact here. Coverage is routine. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:50, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
