2016 Baltimore shooting

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

While this was covered in the news, this would be an example of WP:NOTNEWS. This was an event that has no lasting impact, unlike the Dawson murder case that happened in Baltimore. RickinBaltimore (talk) 17:47, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - According to The Baltimore Sun, there were 31 homicides in the last month (mostly shootings). This article fails WP:EVENT and as the nom said, WP:NOTNEWS applies here. There were no fatalities and I see no lasting impact. APK whisper in my ear  23:39, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Unfortunately, as said above, this incident is not notable enough in a long-term context. South Nashua (talk) 00:40, 2 November 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete - Per NOTNEWS. No fatalities, no reason to believe this is anything more than an ephemeral gun violence incident. Carrite (talk) 01:00, 3 November 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete, as WP:NOTNEWS. Coolabahapple (talk) 22:10, 5 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per WP:NOTNEWS. This feels like run-of-the-mill gang violence. Parsley Man (talk) 04:00, 9 November 2016 (UTC)
