[edit] Nadhem Abdullah

An incomplete AfD brought here. I'm assuming that the entry was nominated for lacking notability. Personally, I suspect that, unfortunately, victims of the war against Iraq lack notability. There are too many of them and, unless the article asserts greater notability, I'm not sure they come into Wikipedia's radar. However, I'm not prepared to CSD-A7 as I am aware of my own anti-war bias. Therefore I'd like community input. This is a technical nomination with no opinion being expressed by be - well, some opinion, but none on the article itself. ➨ ЯEDVERS 19:28, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

• If there is a relevant article on the courtmartial for his death, merge this there. The notability, if any, in the English speaking world comes from that courtmartial. GRBerry 03:24, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep There is a lot of controversy over this man's death, it is notable. He isn't simply another collateral casualty. --HResearcher 04:02, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

 AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

• Keep for now... I've never heard of him, but if more information about these court martials was provided, then I'd say this was notable. --Ricaud 08:48, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. The Court Marshall following his death was headline news in the UK. A search on BBC News reveals 19 stories about him and the case. The article needs expanding though, I'll do a bit of research and try to write a bit more. --Darksun 10:45, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
