Fails WP:SOLDIER (low ranking), and WP:NPOL (minor activism). His death did receive some brief coverage, however WP:BLP1E/WP:BIO1E would preclude this as grounds for notability, and coverage was mainly in relation to the flareup of violence in Decmber 2017.

  • Keep the circumstances of his death shot in his wheelchair by an Israeli sniper is a controversial and non- routine event that deserves an article and bypasses WP:BLP1E as it is the event rather than the person which is most significant. Atlantic306 (talk) 19:29, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Perhaps it could be merged though to an appropriate article of the event Atlantic306 (talk) 19:32, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • He was allegedly shot (there is actually some controversy over this, as well as no confirmation as to the identity/nationality of the shooter) while in the front line of a violent riot on an international border fence - not particularly noteworthy besides him being in a wheelchair at the time.Icewhiz (talk) 19:45, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
