Murder of Leibby Kletzky

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This is a shocking and disturbing murder, however I'm not sure that it warrants inclusion here as an encyclopedic topic. I think this would be great at Wikinews, but the entries here are not just news stories. Additionally, the article draws comparisons to the murder of Etan Patz. The Patz murder apparently lead to national movement in regards to solving child abductions and was instrumental in taking down NAMBLA. We don't see that here. This murder is disgusting, but I don't think it belongs here. AniMate 03:49, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Merge to Murder of Leiby Kletzky, a more encyclopedic treatment of the subject which shows worldwide coverage in top media outlets such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, ABC News, CBS News, Arutz Sheva. Yoninah (talk) 22:20, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I just looked over the current article and see it is almost entirely based on the New York Daily News, a rather unreliable source. I'm changing my !vote to Delete this page and save Murder of Leiby Kletzky with its plethora of worldwide, reliable sources. Yoninah (talk) 22:23, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
