The result was delete. WP:BLP1E seems to summarize why, except the guy is dead, but I think that portion of the guideline applies both ways. WP:INHERITED also applies; not every victim of militant conflict in the Middle East will be notable enough to have their own article, even though many people push towards it due to the current nature of the issue.

Luqman Mohammed Kurdi Hussein

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

A non-notable victim of beheading in Iraq. No sources, very few to be found, and no other claim to notability. Jmlk 1  7  19:26, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unfortunately, a representative example rather than an anomaly. --Dhartung | Talk 23:14, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep I see nobody bothered to check Google, even the author of the article. there seem to be a number of newspaper articles. DGG (talk) 01:13, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Plenty of sources to be found (I've put one of them in the article), and there's no requirement in the notability guidelines for a subject to be an anomaly. Phil Bridger (talk) 22:33, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Yes, there are plenty of news reports on the beheading, but this seems to be a classic case of someone that received news coverage for one event.  Looks like a news item rather than an encyclopedia article to me.-- Kubigula (talk) 16:39, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
 * 'Delete - Definitely only famous for one event and nithing else, and even then he was an unwilling participant. Chris (talk) 21:58, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
