2015 New Orleans shooting

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This doesn't seem to be a very notable event, especially without any fatalities or outstanding motive made clear in the article. It just appears to be another tragic but run-of-the-mill shooting that's very common in that area. Parsley Man (talk) 07:15, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete tragic event, but good thing no one died. Most sources past two days after the event are local and standard like the finding of suspects. Higher profile than most crimes but not notable. TaylorMoore2 (talk) 16:08, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
 *  Keep or reformat - Article has five good references, shooting was unusual. If the article cannot be kept, it should be reformatted to Bunny Friend Park. --Jax 0677 (talk) 17:23, 23 December 2015 (UTC)

 *  Keep and reformat  - NOTNEWS is not applicable here.. Five good surces and high amount of attention.--BabbaQ (talk) 18:45, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - Definitely not notable, especially since no one died and sources are mostly local. 75.80.175.107 (talk) 22:21, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOTNEWS. There is nothing notable about this crime since shootings are common in that area, no one died and there does not seem to be any noteworthy motive for the shooting or unusual/ questionable legal aspect. If and when some notable aspect emerged later the article could then be re-created, but there is no need or justification for it now. TheBlinkster (talk) 04:54, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
