Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dominique Strauss-Kahn sexual assault case
This event is a ''man-made storm'' of world-wide impact, with the IMF, the presidential election in France, the reputation of the New York Police Department and Crime scene investigator|CSI's looking for DNA (forensic evidence) in the hotel room, etc. We don't delete/merge "Hurricane Ike" under ''"Bad weather"'' (or "North America"), waiting for the "news" to be over and people to "know" the impacts. Strauss-Kahn resigned from the IMF, and the French election has been affected. Typically, the next step will be determination of judge and New York district attorney to hold a grand jury (which happened), and Strauss-Kahn was indictment|indicted on all 7 criminal charges, based on the preliminary evidence. The next step is "trial by jury". Top American news sources will be extremely careful to fact-check their reports, so "news" from major U.S. 's should be very accurate, avoiding gossip. Deletion would lead to  detail placed back into his bio-page to note the level of forensic evidence obtained for trial of this case. If the CSI's find only minimal evidence, and that is withheld by WP as being  details (within a bio-page), then the result would be a -vio to omit how only marginal evidence was available for trial against him
