Body on Pen-y-Ghent

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Quite simply, Wikipedia is not news. Purely local happening. The references are thirteen years or more stale. The event had no lasting impact. &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:21, 13 July 2018 (UTC)


 * There are plenty of articles involving unidentified corpses. Example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Lytton
 * What is the difference other than the fact that she was Asian? Are white people more worthy of a Wikipedia article? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconscious_bias_training — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nacentaeons (talk • contribs) 20:31, 13 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete - Information in article sounds like it should be in the local paper. No significance to notability of victim and appears to also be a cold case. Agree with that Wikipedia is not for news.  —  Mr X   ☎️ 20:55, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Hi this article was nominated for deletion almost as soon as it was started. I believe this was premature. I would urge everyone to reread this article as you probably read an early version. This is a notable event which received national attention in the form of Guardian and BBC articles as recently as a few days ago (see references). This article concerns the discovery of the body of a foreign national in a bizarre location which is notable in itself. It also triggered an international investigation and this event is therefore not a purely local happening. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nacentaeons (talk • contribs) 15:50, 14 July 2018 (UTC)
