[edit] Ghadeer Jaber Mkheemar

Does not assert notability. While obviously tragic, Ghadeer's death is no more significant than the hundreds of children killed in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict since the last intifada began in 2000, or indeed the untold numbers of children killed in violent conflicts since the beginning of time.

For the same reason, I am also nominating the page on Ibrahim Muhammad Ismail. Pan Dan 15:16, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete both per above. They fail WP:BIO. --Huon 15:54, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete both per above, cause they don't show WP:BIO. (kind of a repeat Huon) Hello32020 15:58, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. The manner of her death makes her notable. Not many fifth graders are shot in the stomach by Israeli soldiers. The news coverage cited in the article, including a story in the New York Times, demonstrates notability. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 18:45, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

No it doesn't. Getting 1 or 2-day coverage in the media doesn't make a person notable. Pan Dan 19:43, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

• Weak Keep Maybe we could create a new article which includes a list of notable children killed by the Israeli Army and delete this one. --Ageo020 19:12, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Such an article wd be POV. At Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Rania_Siam I suggested: "Perhaps a list of child victims of the Israel-Palestinian conflict, or something like that, could be created instead of one article per child." Pan Dan 19:43, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Other suggestions mentioned above could be incorporated into Children and minors in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Very sad. Flying Jazz 18:08, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Tragic civilan casualty of ongoing armed dispute. Only counts as one coverage per WP:BIO. Being shot in the stomach is no different to being shot in any other part of the anatomy. There were no other direct consequences to the subject's death which could make the event notable. Ohconfucius 06:20, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
