Delete. While tragic, this person is not notable beyond a single event. JBsupreme ( talk ) 18:51, 10 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete Fails WP:PEOPLE and as such falls under WP:VICTIM. While a tragic incident, the victim is not notable and the crime not notable enough to warrant its own article, either.  --Nutarama (talk) 19:22, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - A very significant case that received constantly worldwide coverage of how dangerous Iraq was, even for humanitarian workers. CARE (relief agency) had to suspend operations there because of this. Well beyond the scope of WP:ONEEVENT.  --Oakshade (talk) 22:05, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep, massive and extended press coverage. Everyking (talk) 03:58, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep, as above. Extensive press coverage documenting not only the murder but also the subject's career, satisfying the GNG. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 21:55, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep with the possibility of or renaming to "kidnapping of"/"death of"/"murder of"/"X of", obvious worldwide coverage demonstrated in the article, still recognise the name today and was very surprised to see this had been nominated for deletion. -- can  dle &bull; wicke  02:00, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep, per above arguments. JeffJ (talk) 13:48, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
