The result was   delete. I will userfy this for the article creator if asked, but rather than try to use this case as a WP:COATRACK for discussion of a general problem, the suggestion of an article on Suicides for eviction in Spain sounds more promising. JohnCD (talk) 23:43, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete/userfy. The thing about this is that so far this death doesn't pass notability guidelines. It's incredibly tragic and is representative of a growing issue with what seems to be an outdated eviction law and overly high rent prices, but so far this doesn't pass notability guidelines. I have no problem with someone wanting to userfy this and work on it the point comes where it might pass, but it's just WP:TOOSOON right now. If laws get passed and Diéguez is listed as the impetus for these changes, then an argument could be made for notability. On an aside, there might be enough for the protest group Stop Desahucios to have an article, although I haven't looked especially hard at that group specifically. Diéguez's death has received some media attention, but not nearly as much as say, Megan Meier.Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   04:39, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
 * In fact, and as you said, it's a representative of a growing issue with an outdated eviction law. Nowadays, suicides for eviction are something very viral here, and sometimes they represent the problem of Spain with the real estate bubble. (the prices of a flat of 80m2 have increased from €80000 in 1995 to €300000 in 2008); however, we aren't here to talk about that. The point here is that Diéguez has became not only a referent for the problems with the eviction law, but also for the problems with the divorce law.
 * If this article is finally deleted, should an article for Suicides for eviction in Spain be adequate not only to list them, but also to explain which one is the problem?Strovem (talk) 11:24, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Since the articles I found did talk about a lot of people that committed suicide over these issues and the issue receives some press, I'd say that it looks to be. I'd create it in a userspace first, as you'd have to make sure to phrase everything just right and to have everything well sourced. This is kind of the sort of thing that people might get leery of since it's easy to get POINTy with one side over the other, so you want to make sure it's nice and neutral before mainspacing it.Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   14:13, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Therefore, shall this article be deleted? Strovem (talk) 16:27, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete as NOT NEWS. If there were to be a general article on the topic, as suggested, this would just be one sentence with a reference, and not even a redirect would be appropriate.  DGG ( talk ) 00:59, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
