 * Move I suggest moving the article to something like Murder of Maxwell Adam Mahama because it appears that the person in question, while not notable himself, was the victim of a notable incident (see links: 1 2 3 4), While the current article isn't very substantial, an extant article may encourage contributors --Hazarasp (talk) 10:02, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete (not Move). Classic WP:ONEEVENT situation here. Were it not for the circumstances of his death, there would be no article. Exemplo347 (talk) 14:39, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Move as suggested by User:Hazarasp as there is a lot of coverage over a period of time, so the oneevent appears to be notable. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 02:04, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
 * But he died 8 days ago - so that "period of time" is hardly evidence of sustained coverage. Exemplo347 (talk) 06:24, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete sadly a victim but not noteworthy for a stand-alone article, I dont think a stand-alone article on the murder would pass muster as wikipedia is not a newspaper. MilborneOne (talk) 17:33, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:BIO1E. No need for a rename as the event itself is not sufficiently notable. K.e.coffman (talk) 17:58, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete lacks sufficient coverage in RS to meet GNG. Wikipedia is not a memorial or a repository for all the rotten things that happen. Wikipedia is not a newspaper or the Obits.Dlohcierekim (talk) 10:43, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
