Comment Sometimes there are more to these articles, but at the moment it fails WP:GNG, unless it improves I support the deletion. I don't want to be rude but the rationale could of been written better. Govvy (talk) 15:47, 28 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Two relevant book hits - Palgrave-Macmillan and this more common audience book. In depth coverage of various aspects - e.g. Sophie Collombet: How many walked past the dying student?. Coverage has a wide WP:GEOSCOPE - beyond national Australian (which would suffice), also French,[1][2][3][4], and UK.[5][6]. Coverage is WP:SUSTAINED - harking back to the event itself in 2014,[7] through the court proceedings (e.g. 2015) and conviction in 2016.[8] Furthermore, we have coverage showing WP:LASTING impact from 2017-2018 after the court proceedings concluded, including being mentioned as a notable event in other events.[9][10][11][12][13]. This amply meets GNG, NEVENT, and NCRIME. Icewhiz (talk) 15:18, 3 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, as User:Govvy notes, nom is cursory and gives no indication of WP:BEFORE, when even the quickest search on the victim's unique name brings up ONGOING, SIGCOV. And note that the issue at AfD is not whether someone regards a CRIME as "unremarkable." The question here is whether there has been WP:SIGCOV in WP:RS, and in this case there has been.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:33, 3 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - per WP:GNG. and per book hits, and overall references.BabbaQ (talk) 23:23, 4 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The subject itself does not have to be intrinsically remarkable. It needs to sufficiently referenced in reliable independent sources in non trivial ways, and with coverage over a number of years, nationally and internationally, it is. There is also sufficient for some expansion of the article. Aoziwe (talk) 06:49, 5 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Fails WP:NOT. This crime will not have any WP:LASTING impact and is of no significance outside of Australia, thus failing WP:GEOSCOPE. If for some reason it is kept it should be moved to just Murder of Sophie Collombet. -- Millionsandbillions (talk) 17:57, 5 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest it has relevance outside of Australia in at least France. WP:LASTING is a presumption of notability. The converse does not follow. 99.99% of horses, bands, sports people, etc., have no lasting impact. Aoziwe (talk) 14:08, 6 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Whatever the proposer's life experience, this is a remarkable crime in the context of Brisbane. It occurred in a popular park in a very central part of the city and many passersby who failed to render the victim any assistance. I've added some cited commentary to that effect.
