Robert holohan

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Contested prod. Article is about a murder victim, who is notable for one event only. If there was an article about the case, it could be redirected there, but I don't think an article exists.  TN ‑ X - Man  20:42, 15 September 2008 (UTC) 
 * Keep and move to Murder of Robert Holohan Death of Robert Holohan. --Eastmain (talk) 20:52, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
 * If it wasn't legally a murder, then Death of Robert Holohan or Asphyxiation death of Robert Holohan. If the death is notable, then the article shouldn't be deleted. --Eastmain (talk) 23:39, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
 * The article has been moved to Death of Robert Holohan, so discussion can now focus on whether the death is notable, rather than the victim. --Eastmain (talk) 00:21, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
 * This article is a disaster. For one, the accused has already been released after serving three years for manslaughter. The article's unsourced at present. It strikes me as a case of BLP1E, as pointed out above, and while the case received a substantial amount of media coverage, the question here is whether it's notable enough to be an encyclopedia article. I suggest no. Delete Tony Fox (arf!) 21:20, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete (or slight possibility of merge) - If anything, there should be an article about either the murder itself or the murderer. Definitely fails WP:BLP1E. --Alinnisawest,Dalek Empress ( extermination requests here ) 00:10, 16 September 2008 (UTC) Withdrawing vote because of move. May re-vote later, even if poles are evil. --Alinnisawest,Dalek Empress  ( extermination requests here ) 00:31, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Comment no longer a BLP issue thanks to the move but there's still no evidence the death is a notable one. I'm still looking for sources. TravellingCari 02:14, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 11:17, 22 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete No sources, no indication of notability. Edward321 (talk) 23:55, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
 * delete not only completely unsourced, but fails WP:BLP horrendously. No-one convicted of murder, but article has sub-heading "The murder". Nothing to show that it was a notable event. news coverage in a certain area for a limited amount of time isn't notability enough.Yobmod (talk) 15:18, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
