biography article based on the one event of his murder and one news source. Not notable and WP:NOTNEWS. No assertion of encyclopedic significance. Scott Mac (Doc) 17:59, 5 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It's notable for the area in that it brought up the basic "what are we teaching out kids..." discussion. I can find sources for this debate soon, but it's late now. By the way, I didn't intentionally write, "this is notable..." stuff into the article. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 03:26, 7 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Note that the Cape Cod Times charges for archive use, so I ditched them. I did add a Fox News and a Boston Globe source. I can find more, but that will require significant digging. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 03:37, 7 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Sources can be easily found on the subject, I remembered this case when it came out on CNN, etc, but it died down after a day or two, I don't see why this article is newsworthy enough for it's own page. If an article is created on every piece of news that makes the Associated Press rounds, it will easily be in the millions. WP:NOTNEWS was created for a reason.
