Keep - As it obviously sparked calls for this practice to end. Making it notable.--BabbaQ (talk) 21:33, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect to the section in Muti that refers to "Muti killings". I'm not convinced that there is enough to pass WP:EVENT, however, those seeking information regarding the child's murder or Muti killing would be better served with the merge. Location (talk) 22:00, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as above. I do not see enough to warrant a stand alone article, coverage of the murder is typical of a murder. And not unusual to ask authorities to do something about a horrific murder. LibStar (talk) 15:28, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think this is the article I created a while ago. The article speaks for itself. It's an African murder motivated by muti. Perhaps Americans and Europeans and their media don't consider it to be important, but judging by the sources in the article Africans and their media consider it important.

Keep. Looks to be a fairly significant case. The fact the article is currently only a stub is irrelevant. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:13, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, -- Cirt (talk) 03:45, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, well sourced incident with lasting impact. jorgenev 05:20, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
