Karaikal gang rape

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Per WP:NOTNEWS. This doesn't seem comparable to i.e. 2012 Delhi gang rape in terms of social impact or sustained coverage. Not every crime that is reported on is notable, and this one doesn't seem to be one of the exceptions. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 14:38, 9 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment - Could the content be merged with the article on the 2012 Delhi rapes? It could be used as a follow-up for the events that happened, perhaps showing that there was events even after the major raping. Aerospeed (Talk) 14:54, 9 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Another merge target could be Rape in India. There are some sub-articles like Rape in Jammu and Kashmir but not one for Tamil Nadu --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:24, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
