Yara Gambirasio

No evidence of her meeting WP:VICTIM as her murder was not a historic, life changing event. There is nothing different between this case and every other unsolved murder in the world. They all will have a lot of media coverage, especially local newspapers and stations, because they are tragic, but that does not mean they are all notable for Wikipedia. Every source I found about her is in Italian, so even if she deserves to be noted on here, it should be on the Italian Wikipedia, not this one. Even if her case is somehow solved in the distant future, it won't change the notability of this since cold cases years or decades after they occurred are quite common.

The nominator's choice of words in the opening sentence is very unfortunate. Murder is always, by definition, a life-changing event. And the language of sources has no relevance to a topic's suitability for inclusion here. The "English" in "English Wikipedia" is the language in which articles are written, not a restriction on the topics covered or sources used. Phil Bridger (talk) 12:21, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep,The fact has also now after two years from the event a covarage on Italian media so an article about Yara meet the condition The victim or person wrongly convicted, consistent with WP:BLP1E had a large role within a well-documented historic event. The historic significance is indicated by persistent coverage of the event in reliable secondary sources that devote significant attention to the individual's role.[8] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lucifero4 (talk • contribs)
Keep, very notable topic, more than two years of persistent significant coverage. Eventually rename as Murder of... or similar. Cavarrone (talk) 19:20, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
