WP:BLP1E - article is well-cited, but the only evidence of notability is the Seattle Jewish Federation shooting for which he was convicted of murder. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 19:56, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Seattle Jewish Federation shooting. The only other section in the article, Naveed_Afzal_Haq#Background_and_early_years, does not indicate anything else that would make him notable, which qualifies this article for BLP1E. However, there is a good amount of sourced information in the article, which would be a shame to lose. NW (Talk) 20:12, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Seattle Jewish Federation shooting. Agree with NW that there is some good, sourced information in this article worth keeping, but he has no notability independent of the crime he is convicted of committing (WP:PERPETRATOR). —KuyaBriBri^Talk 21:23, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge but needs to be ensured that much of the material is properly transferred to the main article. Should even have a section on the bio of the shooter, but without undue weight. Plot Spoiler (talk) 23:05, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This is sufficiently significant to be part of the historical record, and thus escapes BLP 1E DGG ( talk ) 00:22, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, especially if other perpetrators of heinous crimes have their own articles separate from their crimes.Alan (talk) 04:00, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and propose a merge/redirect on the talk pages of the two articles first. Bring it back here if that doesn't work. --Elliskev 14:34, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merge Crime is not inherently notable + WP:BIO1E. --Bejnar (talk) 05:37, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
