Comment: This is not a trivial event. There are a wide range of sources. Coverage is national. Coverage has been sustained for more than two weeks. This meets several of the criteria in . The incident has not attracted international coverage in the main reliable sources, though has been picked up by various minor news agencies and sources, such as http://www.golf-talk.co.uk/news/julie-powers-schenecker-kids-murdered-by-mad-mom/124511555 UK and http://www.thaindian.com/newsportal/world/50-year-old-mom-julie-powers-schenecker-charged-of-murdering-her-own-children_100495477.html India. People have commented that there is a feeling that this AfD has been a bit hasty. I understand the concern that Wikipedia does not report every trivial news item, and it is appropriate that an eye is kept on recent news related articles to ensure trivial articles are not created; however, when a news item gets the sustained depth and spread of coverage that this one has, then it is unlikely to be trivial, and at the very least, time should be given to see how things develop before bringing such news items to AfD
