WP:NOTNEWS. Previous deletion discussion (dominated, as usual, by people who clearly have not read or understood that guideline) closed as no consensus. All the cites are either news coverage of the event, news coverage of the trial or the perps execution; nothing to indicate any lasting significance. TheLongTone (talk) 15:30, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

Keep: This does not fit the criteria for WP:NOTNEWS. This has WP:GEOSCOPE and by the nom's own admission WP:DEPTH. Being the subject of an academic publication by the Professor of National Security Strategy at the National War College ([1]) is not WP:ROUTINE. Bait30 Talk? 18:29, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
Keep: One of the few terror attacks in UAE that received international coverage due to the attacker's target and motive.Gianluigi02 (talk), 27 February 2020 (UTC)

- If it exceeds the coverage due to being news why is this not reflected in the article? Have any of you heard of wire services?TheLongTone (talk) 16:10, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
- ...which account for what Bait30 wrongly takes to be an admission of coverage in depth. I would also point out that this crime is not "the subject of an academic publication by the Professor of National Security Strategy at the National War College"; it is mentioned in the paper, which is titled "Framing State Narratives on Terror".TheLongTone (talk) 16:39, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
- Actually that’s the subtitle. The title is “The Reem Island Ghost” with Reem Island being the location that the attack took place. If you read the introduction, it’s very clear that the publication is about how the UAE is handling this specific terror attack. And I’m not sure why you’re mentioning wire services. Of the 35 sources, I believe only 2 of them came from wire services (Reuters and AP). Bait30 Talk? 18:42, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
- No, its using this attack as an example. An entirely different kettle of fish.TheLongTone (talk) 15:01, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
- ” This case study examines the effort of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to rebuild international confidence in its carefully managed image as a secure, tolerant and viable international partner following the brutal murder of an American school teacher in Abu Dhabi by a Yemeni-born Emirati national in early December 2014” (Walker 2016). I’m going to stop responding now so I’m not WP:BLUD. Bait30 Talk? 18:19, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
