 * 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 keep. This was just kept at a very recent discussion. While consensus can change, it's not going to happen in two weeks. Consensus is clear for now and should be respected. A reasonable interval should precede any future renomination. Ad Orientem (talk) 20:20, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

David Hogg (activist)
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Hardly notable as he is just one survivor of a high school shooting out of hundreds 1bcdbackup (talk) 16:27, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep - Kept by clear consensus barely a week ago. The literally hundreds of reliable sources discussing his activism in the wake of the massacre are irrefutable. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 16:34, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep We were just here at the start of this month. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 16:35, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep nothing has changed since last AfD. AdA&D  ☆ 16:43, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep. Discussion took place a week ago. MT Train Talk 16:57, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Weak keep, although he may be seen as trivial at some point in the future, as Wikipedia is not a newspaper. Only time will tell. WP:Crystal. Kierzek (talk) 16:59, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep -- Nom offers absolutely no accepted criterion for deletion other than the purely notional "just one survivor of a high school shooting." We don't delete articles on the basis of made-up criteria. The guy's obviously notable based on the depth of coverage in mainstream media as reflected in the present state of the article. Because I am guessing people might bring up WP:BLP1E here, let me just point out that Hogg is notable as a survivor of the shooting and also as an activist about gun laws. Not a single event, is it? 192.160.216.52 (talk) 17:03, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge all members into one cohesive and easily-manageable unit. We don't have individual articles for the Power Rangers or Planeteers. This motley crew of inexperienced do-gooders isn't fictional, but is otherwise similar. InedibleHulk (talk) 17:21, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment - This individual may be notable now, but who can say that this individual will stay notable in the future? (i.e.) Look at the declining page views for the article on it's talk page. 1bcdbackup (talk) 17:49, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment -- What kind of argument is that? WP:NTEMP. 192.160.216.52 (talk) 17:54, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment - its about "enduring notability", see WP:NOTNEWS. Kierzek (talk) 19:27, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment: wait six months and a solution to whether or not to merge will be more readily apparent. Right now, the individual actors and Never Again MSD are all notable imo.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 19:32, 12 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep per previous AfD. Also, do not merge with other notable survivors. -Roxy, the dog. barcus 18:05, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep, possibly speedy per numbers 2 and 3. The discussion closed as keep just 2 weeks ago, nothing has changed since then; if anything, subject's notability has risen due to increased coverage and media attention. ValarianB (talk) 19:26, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep as above.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 19:30, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
