Keep As per extensive coverage, plus the fact that the perp survived and there is 14 years old means that there is already geographically extensive coverage of the question of whether he will be tried as an adult (coverage of perp here:[1]) Certainly, if not kept it should be WP:REDIRECTed to List of school shootings in the United States, but my opinion is that the coverage of the event and the legal proceedings in its wake carry this past WP:GNG, and it is preferable to keep an event about a crime, than to create a separate article about the perp (whose age has already generated an unusual amount of coverage).E.M.Gregory (talk) 10:16, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, if WP:NOTNEWS, then why bother creating and updating election news in Wikipedia (for example, the plethora of information on the 2016 USA Presidential election) as it happens? Why not wait until it has been settled, and then create a (much more concise) article about it?
Also, according to wikipedia guidelines, space is not an issue.
Also, a main road is now being named after the youngest murder victim.
Of course, given the sheer number of school shootings in the USA, perhaps this is indeed a non-notable event. :/ --98.122.20.56 (talk) 03:24, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
