Per WP:PERPETRATOR, this is too small for a main article on El-Hussein, and he doesn't seem too particularly noteworthy to deserve an article of his own. Everything is already covered in the "Perpetrator" section of the 2015 Copenhagen shootings article. If there is anything missed there that is already being covered in this article, it can simply just be merged into the shootings article. Parsley Man (talk) 22:29, 7 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to to 2015 Copenhagen shootings#Perpetrator. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 10:58, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
keep I searched him before agreeing with the redirect. (target article is not short, so there is some argument for keeping in that.) This murderer is back in the news because of where/by whom he was buried [1]. [2] More to the point is the fact that there was so much more interest in him than the article as it now stands reveals. see searches [3], and, especially here [4] that search is especially persuasive since there is a new focus on radicalization of young, thuggish, 2nd and 3rd generations Muslim youth in Europe (see this week's WSJ article [5]) and his case is coming up in some of that coverage, as an example of a phenomenon in which secular juveniles get thrown in prison for petty crimes, or low-end gang activity, and emerge radicalized. Merging is premature, and a potential loss of material as per WP:PRESERVE.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:28, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
