 * Delete: Seemingly a clear case of WP:BLP1E. Alternatively, a merge might be a solution per WP:CRIMINAL. -- BenTels (talk) 15:04, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Selective merge to Blasphemy law. Agreed that this is a BLP1E, but it is mostly about the application of German blasphemy law.  Sandstein   15:53, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep but further anonymize the article. the previous conviction should be mentioned, but not the occupational details. Sufficiently a matter of public interest.  DGG ( talk ) 00:15, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Merge to Blasphemy law or could use it as start of a separate article on German blasphemy law. As an article on the individual who is only known for one event it falls under WP:BLP1E.  I wondered if the event might be notable, but a brief internet search (including German sources) suggests not: coverage is from around the time of his conviction with a lack of long-term interest aside from a few brief mentions. Finally, arguing against his notability as an individual, some newspaper stories don't even give his name, e.g..  German Wikipedia covers it in their article on blasphemy law, de:Beschimpfung von Bekenntnissen, Religionsgesellschaften und Weltanschauungsvereinigungen, which isn't a deciding factor as different wikis have different policies, but may indicate its lack of notability.  --Colapeninsula (talk) 10:34, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge to Blasphemy law per WP:BLP1E, due to lack of persistent coverage. The person and his actions were a flash in the pan. Gun Powder Ma (talk) 16:14, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
