Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gilberta Estrada
This story has been covered by multiple reliable and independent sources including CNN, AP, and Reuters, because of the horror of a mother hanging her four children and herself, killing all but the youngest, who survived the attempted murder. It is not at all a run of the mill murder-suicide. But Wikipedia is not a newspaper nor is it a true crime site. If this tragedy led to some lasting effect on society, such as funding for counseling and medication for mothers with post-partum depression, or if there are books, movies (yuck) or other tertiary coverage, then an article could be recreated. We may also think of the surviving child, whose name is given in the article, per the new provision in  and  which have been used to delete articles satisfying  and  on the ground (in ) that "Wikipedia is, fundamentally, a project that aims to improve the world. This means approaching the subjects of our articles with compassion, grace and understanding." and in  "Wikipedia properly considers the long-term historical notability of persons and events, keeping in mind the harm our work might cause. The fact that someone or something has been in the news for a brief period of time does not automatically justify an encyclopedia article
