Lack of WP:LASTING - unfortunately a lot of violent crime happens in South Africa, not every attack is noteworthy. BrigadierG (talk) 23:44, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment an attack on an ambassador is more notable than a random attack, but unless there was some lasting impact, I'd probably agree with Nom. 08:47, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
Delete the diplomat may well be notable to have his own article, but not this event in particular I would say. Uhooep (talk) 14:50, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Emmanuel Mwambulukutu used to be an article on the diplomat before it was redirected to this newly-created page on the 2007 attack. It wasn't in great shape, but with most of the sources dead, I can't say much definitively on his personal notability other than it's probably borderline. The attack probably isn't notable enough on its own, but I didn't do any real research into it, so I'm not placing an actual !vote. Skarmory (talk • contribs) 16:40, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Comment if Mwambulukutu was a Member of Parliament from 1985-2000 then why was the article binned in the first place. That would make him notable. Even if the article was a mess it could still be improved. Uhooep (talk) 06:35, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I have restored his bio. He is clearly a notable politician having been an MP in the Tanzanian Parliament. Perhaps any non-duplicated prose from this afd can be transcribed there where appropriate. Uhooep (talk) 14:26, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Emmanuel Mwambulukutu, not enough content to stand on its own. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 23:03, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Emmanuel Mwambulukutu. This is something that happened in his life and should be part of his biography. We don't split random events in someone's biography off to their own articles unless there's so much to write about that it's impractical to keep it in the bio.

Delete. There is no point in merging. All the content is present in the main article. XabqEfdg (talk) 00:46, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Doesn't need a separate article and all info is already in the Emmanuel Mwambulukutu article. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:29, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
