Murdered child, fails WP:NOT. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 16:36, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 *  Delete  – Sorry to say. No pieces at all in Google News.  Which than means that we cannot establish notability . My Sympathies to the family.  Shoessss |  Chat  18:50, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. I suggest you try your search again. I get 37 hits in papers such as The Mirror and The Sun. Searching in Spanish gives 337 hits, but I'm not fluent in the language. Pburka (talk) 18:58, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - you are right, sorry to say either I misspelled or had fat fingers today, there is coverage from credible and verifiable sources. Thanks for showing me.  Struck Delete and moved to Keep. Shoessss |  Chat  01:29, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep there are enough verifiable non trivial sources as shown plus  to support retaining the article. Mis condolencias a la familia.— Ѕandahl  03:25, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. For the reasons given by Travellingcari. This is news, not notability. Is Wikipedia to become the repository for every murdered person story, no matter what their significance? WWGB (talk) 14:36, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Brief assessment against the proposed guideline WP:N/CA at the time of writing (here ): The British press stories do not confer notability on the case, because they are basically using it to rehash the focus on Madeleine McCann.  I cannot read the Spanish stories, but the ones in English all seem (at first glance) to come from a single provider.  The proposed guideline would therefor suggest that the article be kept and moved to a new article titled something like Disappearance or Murder of... provided that the spanish references met the sourcing requirements of WP:N/CA.  Otherwise the article would be deleted under the proposed guideline. Just my interpretation, anyway! Best wishes Fritzpoll (talk) 15:42, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment – Excellent point! Agree. Shoessss |  Chat  00:27, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikipedia is not a place for memorials. B.Wind (talk) 06:07, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - lack of significant coverage in reliable sources. The Sun and Mirror aren't reliable. PhilKnight (talk) 23:58, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
