 * Speedy Keep The murder case has generated attention from the highest political levels in Italy (Minister Matteo Salvini) and the murder case has received coverage in the United Kingdom (BBC), Ghana and Malta. Sources have been added to the article. AadaamS (talk) 20:52, 26 October 2018 (UTC)
 * MSN published an article on the case. Will be added to the article. AadaamS (talk) 10:34, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
 * The President of the European Parliament Antonio Tajani has commented the case from Strasbourg. Changing my vote to Speedy Keep. AadaamS (talk) 07:07, 28 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep It is a case with global interest related to wider issues. Many single victim murders don't have that but do have articles. That it is politically sensitive is a reason to keep the article, not censor the subject. Chwyatt (talk) 08:57, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep Well-sourced notable case with top-level political reactions and international media reception.--Greywin (talk) 09:15, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep agree with above, the story has made worldwide news Unibond (talk) 20:19, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep as a simple Google search shows that there is substantial coverage, which establishes notability. Aoba47 (talk) 05:43, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. Has got wide coverage and United Kingdom (BBC) has reported it to be a very reliable case and thus satisfies WP:GNG as it has independent reliable sources and to prove its popularity and impact. Strongly agree with AadaamS.Vinodbasker (talk) 06:54, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment with comments by Antonio Tajani, this case has definitely reached the highest political levels in Italy and is entering European-level politics. Is this AfD still open? AadaamS (talk) 07:07, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep plenty of coverage. plenty of good sources. Snow Keep.BabbaQ (talk) 23:41, 29 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment So, this is fundamentally an article about the immigration in Italy. As such it risks becoming a content fork and also a coatrack. I think, bearing this in mind, that a suitable merge & redirect target exists.
 * Keep . There was so muchj attention for this case in Italy but also abroad. Dan Holsinger (talk) 17:35, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
 * commentI see nothing to address WP:TOOSOON of WP:NOTNEWS. And I would not say the case has attracted widespread overseas intest; I consume a great deal of news and this story has certainly not generated significant coverage in the UK.TheLongTone (talk) 12:49, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
 * The case has significant coverage in Italy, national level news amounts to WP:SIGCOV. There is nothing in guidelines to suggest that significant coverage in UK press is mandatory. Per WP:COMPETENCE, it is perfectly valid for multilingual editors to build articles using non-English sources. Per WP:NOTNEWS: For example, routine news reporting of announcements, sports, or celebrities is not a sufficient basis for inclusion in the encyclopedia, this has gained significant political attention, it is therefore not routine and WP:NOTNEWS is not applicable. AadaamS (talk) 06:00, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
 * This story has been covered in the UK by the BBC. AadaamS (talk) 06:17, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
 * It's still WP:TOOSOON. And it is still likely to become a coatrack; it has only attracted the BBC attention because of grandstanding by the extreme right.TheLongTone (talk) 12:20, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
