WP:NOTNEWS. There is very little coverage in reliable sources of this event, and no indication that there will be any lasting significance. This topic may be better suited to WikiNews. Bradv🍁 14:28, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, because it was reported by several mainstream British & American media sources. That it wasn't reported more extensively is probably due to the fact that mass shootings have become more common in Mexico in the early 21st century. Jim Michael (talk) 14:46, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Are you kidding me? This article is one sentence. Wikipedia is not news. Trillfendi (talk) 15:26, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Not a major event in the Mexican Drug War. This is a common event, even in Cancún where violence has been rising since last year. Wikipedia is not a newspaper. I have to mention that low death-toll is not the issue. Low death-tolls are fine as long as notably is established. None of this has been proven here. MX (✉ • ✎) 15:32, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Article should name actual bar - "La Kuka".... In my BEFORE I don't see any coverage from the past week, which would seem to indicate that this is a single newscycle news item - and hence not likely to see SUSTAINED coverage. Icewhiz (talk) 16:25, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete For lack of coverage beyond initial news reports, with no prejudice against re-creation of article if, going forward, sources emerge to demonstrate notability.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:39, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Virtually no coverage past the initial reaction. WP:NOTNEWS. GN-z11 ^☎ ^★ 17:59, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:NOTNEWS....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 23:04, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
