[edit] Ambir Hamsa

This article was flagged for speedy. I thought that I should bring the article here since some people have suggested that murder victims are not in general notable. TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 07:11, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. Notable, since the subject of multiple non-trivial newspaper stories. TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 07:11, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Murder victims are not inherently notable. While this may be true in this case, the crime certainly is notable and the name of the victim seems the most appropriate title for the article. Having said that, this article desperately needs expanded. --IslaySolomon 12:11, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Yes, that is true, article about non notable murder victim. So it should be deleted. Crime itself might be notable. So new article need to be written. If this article is about crime - then title is wrong and completely misleading. So it should be renamed - but if you will bother to read it - you will notice that at a current state it is about boy, not about crime itself. TestPilot 23:56, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Truth Bakaman _Bakatalk 20:22, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete First. Someone should provide source information. Google don't know any web pages about that boy(Ambir Hamsa). Second. The whole article information - the boy with name Ambir Hamsa happend to become a victim of a crime. There thouthands of such articles could be created each and every day.

• Delete. Regrettable incident which brings the US armed forces into disrepute, but does not qualify for inclusion per WP:BIO, which clearly states "Multiple similar stories describing a single day's news event only count as one coverage". Also the subject is a 14 year old Iraqi girl who would be otherwise not notable, so the article will probably remain a stub forever. However, the subject of American war crimes perpetrated in Iraq could warrant an article, as there have been a few of these. Ohconfucius 05:25, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Article is a duplicate of Abeer Qassim Hamza. Possibly retain as a redirect from misspelling (or alternate spelling) to that article. Fairsing 04:43, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Abeer Qassim Hamza as it is the same subject. Lincher 13:13, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
