Does not meet WP:GNG, coverage is limited to PR and unreliable sources. I was not able to find coverage that would establish that this is a WP:DUE addition at say, World Mental Health Day, which the subject coincides with. There's a mention at Karen Darke supported by this PR piece which should probably be removed if that's the only source that can be found to support it. signed, Rosguill talk 18:13, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Might be an article about Jenny herself, which has a small amount of coverage. But nothing for this (I don't want to call it a holiday), day of remembrance? World Mental Health Day is notable, I'm not sure this particular day of remembrance really caught on with the public. Oaktree b (talk) 18:56, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    It seemed like the coverage of the suicide was a bit more tabloid-y than what would generally justify such an article, but I do agree that we are closer to identifying coverage for Suicide of Jenetta Barry than we are to the actual subject of this article. signed, Rosguill talk 19:01, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Given the direct attention and endorsement from the British Prime Minister and its specific focus on teen suicide (which sets it apart from the broad strokes of World Mental Health Day), an issue of significant societal concern, "World Jenny's Day" warrants retention. Teenage suicide is often lumped into other nebulous categories, and objectively, this has already commanded significant celebrity and broad-based appeal interest.

Now added is the fact that this is a fully registered charity. signed, Ssteedman talk 21:18, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I can find no good sources on which to base an article - as the nominator says they all seem to be based on PR. In general there are far too many of these awareness days. There are far more than 365 worthy causes, so every day (except possibly 29 February) is an awareness day for several things. The fact this this is not notable in Wikipedia terms doesn't subtract from its importance. Phil Bridger (talk) 17:30, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:SIGCOV and WP:MILL. Not every registered charity is notable, and many of them as run of the mill. Importance isn't the same as notability. Bearian (talk) 18:57, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
