The result was keep. Withdrawn. The article still needs work, but after updates I think there is probably enough for notability. If there isn't, a redirect to Mosaic theory (US law) is certainly fine. (non-admin closure) User:力 (power~enwiki, π,  ν ) 19:27, 30 October 2021 (UTC)

Halkin v. Helms

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Notability concerns. No secondary sources, just a case summary. I see two cases Halkin v. Helms (one from 1978 and one from 1982) and cannot tell which one is being discussed. User:力 (power~enwiki, π,  ν ) 21:26, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep – seems to be a notable state-secrets case: see (pgs. 857–858),  (pgs. 13–17), and several books available through the Internet Archive. (The 1978 ruling and the 1982 ruling both stem from the same case, and both are discussed in the sources above.) Meets the GNG, although I can see how that might not have been obvious.

 * It's the 1978 case, ν . The article needs more work but it's a landmark case so we should have an article for it. Auden Mays (talk) 10:07, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
