Deletion of List of victims of the Virginia Tech massacre

Comment: Especially after 911, emotions are running high on any wanton act perpetrated on Americans. Whilst I would not expect to see lists of victims for each and every massacre, independent of scale, I believe that this list in this case fits the mood, notable as the event, but could exist within context of the article, worked in to either in Virginia Tech massacre or Virginia Tech massacre timeline. This is a list of 30-odd names, already part of  Virginia_Tech_massacre#Victims|Virginia Tech massacre. A separate article would constitute a |memorial, and would be an invitation for people to start expanding the article beyond notable biographical details and into the trivial existence of individuals who would not have merited a listing if they had not been in the wrong place at the wrong time. Have a look at List of victims of the Virginia Tech massacre|the article again: with all the flags and descriptions of the courses the victims were on, it bears an increasing resemblance to memorials we are well accustomed to seeing

Comment: This is a clear violation of .  I understand and sympathize with those who with to honor the victims, but Wikipedia is not the place to do so.  I prefer a merge to the Virginia Tech massacre|main article over a keep, but I do not believe that the list currently in the main article is necessary
