to the event article per .  What's interesting is that martyrdom requires a certain set of circumstances forced by an outside party, usually a requirement to renounce a faith or pledge to another one.  That doesn't appear to have happened here, and it seems to be the ''news outlets'' calling him a martyr, not the Pope.  If the requirements to be a martyr were simply to be killed by someone of another religion, we're short a lot of articles.  So we need to not jump to conclusions and thus declare notability on a single fact that's not substantiated by anything other than the media, who is using said word to make a point
