Now that there is a separate
Murder of Samia Shahid article, I would like to bring the
WP:BIO1E argument again. Most of the "keep" arguments in the
prior deletion discussion seemed to support the notability of her murder, but there does not seem to be enough coverage available to write a balanced, standalone article that is about Shahid as a whole (e.g. her history and impact as a beautician), not just the circumstances of her death. I recommend a redirect to
Murder of Samia Shahid outcome.

Keep The Samia Shahid article is created almost a month earlier than Murder of Samia Shahid. I don't know Wiki Policy about such an issue. it is a second nomination. I think the article created afterwards should be merged with this article.

- The article created afterwards is an accepted draft.-- 115.167.70.196 ( talk) 13:02, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
- @ Snehahurrain: The issue is that the two articles are, in fact, different subjects. One is about the event of her murder—combining information about the perpetrators, the crime itself, and the aftermath—and the other is a biography about Shahid as a person. The murder might be notable as a result of significant coverage in reliable sources (the general notability guideline), but the overwhelming majority of the coverage about Shahid is about her death. The event of her murder has received significant coverage, but not Shahid's life as a whole. I could accept merging this article to Murder of Samia Shahid as well.

- Merge this stub with Murder of Samia Shahid. Her life is not notable but her murder is.-- 115.167.70.196 ( talk) 13:02, 25 September 2016 (UTC)

- Comment, this arguably WP:ONEEVENT, does not require two articles, suggest a merge of this into Murder of Samia Shahid as the prime subject ( WP:NOTMEMORIAL may also apply}. Coolabahapple ( talk) 00:22, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect to Murder of Samia Shahid, as is our usual structure for such articles. Andy Dingley ( talk) 00:22, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect. We certainly don't need two articles. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 13:45, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
- Comment. I don't have a strong opinion here, but I will say that " murder" is a tricky word. It has a specific legal meaning, and considering that we have listed an accused perpetrator on that page, we could face a BLP issue should that person be convicted of a homicide crime that is not murder. I also understand that we use common language here, and not technical legal terms. I just wanted to bring that to folks' attention before we decided on a name for the page. agtx 15:08, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
- @
Agtx: This is an excellent point. I would support moving the article something like
Death of Samia Shahid
after this AfD concludes. I used "murder" here since it is the current article title. Mz7 ( talk) 02:46, 29 September 2016 (UTC) On second thought, since BLP is involved, I would support the move right now. Mz7 ( talk) 02:47, 29 September 2016 (UTC)- I should add that if this turns out to be all true, then it is a heinous crime. If the perpetrator is eventually convicted of murder, then the page should absolutely be titled as such. agtx 16:23, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

Note: I have moved
