Keep Deletion proposed by Arbeit Sockenpuppe, who gave the reason: "NN bio". This is a user that claims to be an administrator, although nobody knows that for sure. That user added a prod tag, although from the sources and references in the article it is clear that this is not an NN bio. I erased the prod tag, and added the afd tag. I don't want this article to be deleted, but I certainly don't want it to be deleted because of the prod tag without any discussions. Quoth nevermore (talk) 04:25, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep certainly the subject of plenty of 3rd party coverage. cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 09:15, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Weak keep. I'm not convinced of the long-term importance here, but there has been quite a bit of national attention paid to the story due to the military angle. Regardless of outcome it is likely to end up as a high-profile UCMJ case of some kind. --Dhartung | Talk 10:57, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep The article should be expanded with information about the suspect(s), the rape, her condition, possible abuse of women in the military, and so on. Amputation (talk) 12:16, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:BLP1E and per our inability to write a biography of this person because her life was uninteresting. If he disappearance/potential death are notable events (which they could be), let's delete this and include a mention on the relevant army article, or perhaps on MWWS#Possible_instances_of_MWWS, where she is already listed. This is an encyclopedia, and we report on things of interest to the civilization, not on last week's crime victims. Arbeit Sockenpuppe (talk) 15:42, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment Then please start afd's on all of them instead of constantly pointing to an essay and telling everyone the crap is out there. We can start by deleting every missing or murdered white female from Misplaced Pages who was not famous, as well as people like:
  • Rodney King, he is known for one thing, being beat up by police
  • Abner Louima, also known for one thing, being sodomized
  • Monica Lewinsky, we all know her one event
  • Jena 6, they just jumped a kid. That happens every day in NYC.
  • Latoyia Figueroa, non-white woman who went missing and later found murdered
  • Tamika Huston, see above
  • Jessica Lynch, Lori Piestewa & Shoshana Johnson captured during Iraq invasion

I look forward to participating in the cited articles Afd nominations. Please leave me a message when the Afd's begin so I can get my popcorn ready. By the time we delete all of the so-called crap all we'll be left with is the beloved Pokemon characters. Good luck! Angrymansr (talk) 19:02, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

I agree that there's no need to get testy, but you only said that to avoid answering his question. How about all those articles he mentioned? --Reklamedame (talk) 10:21, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Keep If you delete this, you might as well delete Laci Peterson and every other murder victim that gains national attention. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.134.119.122 (talk) 00:57, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
