See previous discussion per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Murder of Liu Hong Mei. It doesn't seem like this is a recreation of the deleted article from some eight years ago, but the grounds for deletion as listed in the AfD still seem relevant to me. A pity, since the author of this article has evidently put in much effort. Kingoflettuce (talk) 12:37, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. i feel that this is a notorious crime, and has significant coverage and many people still remember it even till today. besides, like my previous reason in another discussion, should it be that all murder cases has to have lasting effects in order to remain in wikipedia, it would be the case where even the Toa Payoh ritual murders and Murder of Huang Na do not deserve its own article.NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 00:16, 25 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And, consider the comments of the people involved about the unusual way of dismembering the body and the defence made by the suspect against the charge he was tried for. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 13:16, 25 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. As written in the article, the case has been covered in several mediums: TV and books (local and internationally), many which were after the previous AfD discussion. – robertsky (talk) 02:08, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Very obviously notable. Heavy coverage. Passes WP:GNG. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:31, 28 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
