== Fabricated evidemce ==
What was the motive or suggested motive of the detectives fabricating the evidence, was it due to their own personal grievance for their colleague, was it due to racist or was it to further their own career?
[edit] change title
Whilst this murder is certainly notable - the individual is only notable for being murdered. Thus we should have an article on the notable murder and not a pseudo-biography on someone notable only for hi death. I'm going to move this back to murder of Keith Blakelock. Please explain any reasons why that's a bad idea?--Docg 23:32, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
- It's a bad idea for the sake of usability. What is the linked term likely to be? I think in almost all cases it's going to be Keith Blakelock (as a quick look will indeed confirm). While redirects aren't a problem I don't see the point in needlessly creating one for the sake of some dogma that has not been accepted by the Wikipedia community as a whole in any case. -- Necrothesp 14:02, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

- redirects are cheap. And the 'dogma' is now a suggestion for consideration under WP:BLP and WP:NOT.--Docg 16:10, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
- Not sure of the relevance or meaning of "redirects are cheap". And I may be missing something, but I can't see any discussion of the renaming of articles on murders on either of those pages. -- Necrothesp 16:35, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

- Wouldn't this content be better off merged with Broadwater Farm riot? All the material seems to relate to that article, and the murder was the most significant and lasting event of the riot. --Tony Sidaway 16:05, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

- I could go with that.--Docg 16:10, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
