[edit] John Hron

May have been locally significant but not enough to warrant an article. Dismas|^(talk) 21:19, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete It seems like this might have potential (sort of like a Matthew Shepard situation), but there's no mention of it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jonquière (talk • contribs) 23:31, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. I think that his murder had a profound impact on Swedish society. http://www.regeringen.se/sb/d/1159/a/7706 Years after his death, people are still talking about it. TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 23:44, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Delete per Jonquière. The article needs to establish _why_ John's murder is significant. Tevildo 17:33, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. This murder got a lot of attention when it happened and has continued to be referred to in the media. The article needs to be expanded, but it has some references, and I doubt anybody living in Sweden for the last 10 years would question the notability. up+land 07:29, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
• Comment User:Killerman2 unilaterally removed the afd notice. I have re-added it. --Mais oui! 07:44, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. This murder is famuos in heal Sweden. Killerman2 09:46, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Wikipedia is neither a memorial nor Wikinews. Might possible reconsider if more content is added. Stifle (talk) 14:11, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete -- but mention the event in Crime in Sweden / Fred-Chess 00:04, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

If it's likely to be in Crime in Sweden at some point, why not a redirect? John Broughton 20:51, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
