Suicide of Rebecca Sedwick

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Uncited (as opposed to unreferenced) Biography of a minor who is notable exclusively for their suicide. At a brief glance, I see a "NoBullying" campaign site and a "48 hours investigates" reference that both appear to have a significant naritive editorial wash over it instead of the very clear cut explanation of the facts. This is not eligible for BLP (or recently deceaced because of the suicide being in 2013). This might be a WP:BLP1E, but I'm electing to choose the most conservative nomination to get an ironbound consensus. No objection to Admins speedy closing this if they believe a more liberal interepertation of policy is in order. No objection to Admins speedy closing this in light of snow consensus.

 * Delete In a perfect world based on policy and quality, such an article on a sensitive issue would have been speedily deleted. Unfortunately, a few news sources repeating the same tragic story with little lasting significance warrants a seven-day discussion.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 00:05, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
