The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was keep. After relisting the discussion the responses to the AFD have been to keep the article and since sources are provided to back up the content that view has merit. Note that it was suggested that the article could be retitled (i.e. moved) to focus on the event and circumstances surrounding Figuera's death, but that discussion can be had elsewhere.

Keep Article meets WP:GNG and has particular importance in the context of the Venezuelan protests. A move to Death of Orlando Figuera can also be considered if there are still doubts about notability. I will try to expand the article and explain further this point soon. --NoonIcarus (talk) 20:42, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I have further expanded the article, a lot compared to the its version when it was first nominated for deletion. In short, Orlando Figuera is arguably the best known case of violence in demonstrations in Venezuela, and has been used as a rallying flag by the Venezuelan government to label opposition demonstrators as violent, fascists, racists, and whatnot. Not only does his death have wide coverage in Venezuela, where he died, but also in Spain and other international outlets that have reported on the protests as well. Pinging nominator @Ari T.

Keep as per the rationale provided by NoonIcarus, the subject is enough notable as it passes WP:SIGCOV. ☆★Mamushir (✉✉) 03:38, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
