Suicide of Chester Bennington

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

Not seeing the need for the fork, most mentions of his passing are short blurbs, this can be covered in the article about the singer. Not seeing that this meets GNG. It's a part of his story, but not a story alone. Oaktree b (talk) 20:19, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Chester Bennington. There is nothing earth-shattering about this particular suicide to warrant it having its own article. Onel 5969  TT me 21:13, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Chester Bennington – All of the content is already in Bennington's article. The Suicide of Kurt Cobain has more depth, coverage, and context given it was more complex, controversial, and mysterious than Bennington's death. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  01:48, 21 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Honestly, I'd be fine Merging it with Chester Bennington, but preferably, I'd keep it. Unlike what Oaktree b said, the articles weren't really blurbs (excluding the TMZ one ), most of them were full length articles that were:
 * Reliable
 * Secondary
 * Gave significant coverage of the event detailed
 * Independent of the subject
 * So while I don't see the need for deletion, I understand why one would delete it. That's just my 2 cents. AugustusAudax (talk) 12:22, 21 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Chester Bennington... IF the title is a likely search term. If not just delete. In either case, this particular article simply repeats almost word-for-word the text that is already in the "Death" section at Bennington's main article. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 14:35, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Chester Bennington unneeded CFORK.  // Timothy :: talk  10:15, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
