Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aminulrasyid Amzah


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was speedy delete under WP:CSD. Article was created by and only substantially edited by User:Roman888 and his socks. No prejudice against creation of a new version of the article under an appropriate title with enough sources to demonstrate that the event transcends WP:NOTNEWS. Given that Roman violated copyright in almost every article he created and as a last act under his primary account threatened to continue doing so while hiding his real sources, nothing he produces can be counted safe.

The article which you mentioned has been in the news recently in Malaysia in various media outlets, newspapers, internet sites and blog sites. In fact this article is of national interest in Malaysia as compared articles such as Kugan Ananthan or Teoh Beng Hock who have died recently in custody by the police.Monkeybuttgirl23 (talk) 13:55, 29 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment I'd be tempted to delete based on WP:1E, and let wikinews handle it if needed. Syrthiss (talk) 14:05, 29 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Strong keep. Actually I don't mind if it's deleted, but I'm 100% confident it will be recreated and kept at a later date. The death has caused a significant uproar in the Malaysian media and has already become a political issue, much like the deaths of Kugan Ananthan and Teoh Beng Hock. The Home Ministry has already announced a special panel to investigate the shooting. This is big news, and even if the boy himself isn't noteworthy, his shooting definitely is.

 * Keep but move to Killing of Aminulrasyid Amzah. As a person, Aminulrasyid Amzah is not now and will not be notable. However, the event of his death and the actions that follow show signs of notability. Changing the name is consistent with other articles on notable crimes of non-notable subjects, e.g., Kidnapping of Shannon Matthews. Maybe it's a bit recent of an event for an article, but I'm willing to err on the side of caution here and keep it; if six months go by and the story completely fades away, then a second AfD is in order. —C.Fred (talk) 17:09, 29 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep and move . I agree with all of the above. Not an ordinary killing. --Mkativerata (talk) 20:15, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
