Shooting of Kinsley White

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Fails WP:SBST and WP:GNG. While the shooting is sad and unfortunate, it also is a WP:INHERENT concern due to the event happening around the Shooting of Ralph Yarl, which it has received coverage alongside. Unless it gains substantially more notability, it should be removed for now. Wikicontributor93 (talk) 04:23, 26 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete. For clear reasons in nomination. I'm by nature an inclusionst, but this is a no from me. Moncrief (talk) 20:24, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep aware of WP:OTHERSTUFF but this is 100% as notable as the Shooting of Ralph Yarl with similar circumstances and similar national coverage. I'm literally following that article as a template. It makes no sense that one is notable and the other is not. --FlameRetardant (talk) 09:48, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Or the Shooting of Payton Washington. In all three cases it's a non-fatal shooting of a civilian by another civilian. In the case of Yarl and Washington the information about the suspect was allowed to be included. In those two cases there is no attempt to delete the article. Can someone tell me the difference between Ralph Yarl, Payton Washington and Kinsley White that only the article about White has garnered so much hostility? Please? --FlameRetardant (talk) 02:15, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Similar circumstances doesn't determine notability. Searching Google News: shooting of Kinsley gets ~300 hits, Washington and Yarl get ~3000 hits each. So it is not similar coverage at all, its 10x less there for example. WikiVirusC (talk) 13:06, 1 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Where are the minimums specified? Is 3000 a lot? The minimum? Is 30 the minimum? If so, 300 would be 10x the minimum. Just trying to get a sense of how this works. --FlameRetardant (talk) 00:05, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
 * There are no minimums or set numbers. I only gave those numbers as you compared it to those two as if it was outlandish that those weren't nominated for deletion, when they both have a very noticeable difference in coverage compared to this. WikiVirusC (talk) 12:50, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
