Death of Victoria Martens

[edit]

Created by WereWolf (talk). Self-nominated at 15:49, 9 July 2017 (UTC).

  • Comment: striking ALT1 as a violation of WP:BLP, since the mother has not been convicted of the murder. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:01, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
Oh ok! Sorry WereWolf (talk) 21:11, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
@BlueMoonset: I was going to review this article but I am uneasy about it. The first sentence states "On August 24, 2016, ten-year-old Victoria Martens was killed by three people, including her mother, in Albuquerque, New Mexico." Does Wikipedia have a policy about this sort of article where a crime appears to have been committed and suspects charged, but they have not yet been convicted?

  • Cwmhiraeth, the policy is WP:BLPCRIME, which makes sentences like that a definite problem. Your review should certainly take it into account, and the article should probably be tagged (no idea what the template would be, though). BlueMoonset (talk) 14:02, 31 July 2017 (UTC)
  • This article is new enough and long enough. I have edited the opening sentence of the article that I mentioned above, and I now think the article is neutral. The hook facts have an inline citation and I detected no copyright issues. I do not believe a QPQ review is necessary. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:03, 31 July 2017 (UTC)
  • I have pulled this hook following complaints on WT:DYK and WP:BLPN. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 13:14, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
    • Am I allowed to write and submit another hook on this page? I apologize I am still new to this format this is my third DYK nomination. WereWolf (talk) 17:13, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
Yes, please submit one or more alternative hooks. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:20, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
*ALT3 ...that the murder of Victoria Martens occurred one year ago this month in Albuquerque, New Mexico? WereWolf (talk) 18:17, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
  • Comment the article title has changed to Death of Victoria Martens I am resubmitting the previous three hooks with the new title name.
