2018 Shopian firing incident

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This was just like one of the hundreds of encounters that take place in Kashmir Valley on a daily basis. This article is an exaggeration of an event which never got any coverage after a few days of the event. These types of encounters are very common in Kashmir, the sources used are mainly Breaking News sources which didn't cover the topic after a few days. Delete as per WP:NOTNEWS and WP:LASTING.

 * Delete I agree with the above participants, but wanted to add that searching for sources suggests this was one of at least a few such "incidents" of which most if not all appear to be largely short-term news items. This may be the worst of them, but doesn't seem particularly notable in the grand scheme of an encyclopedia. ~  Amory  (u • t • c) 21:43, 1 April 2019 (UTC)
