Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ben Breedlove
per . The individual is Breedlove, the event is his death (unless anyone can put prove that Breedlove would be notable if he was still alive today). BIO1E states: "Another issue arises when an individual plays a major role in a minor event. In this case, it is not generally appropriate to have an article on both the person and the event." Breedman's death, however tragic, is a minor event (he's received media coverage because of the touching nature of his story, not because it was important world news) so the only article that should exist is Death of Ben Breedman. But I would argue that even that article should not exist simply because this is not encyclopedic material. Lots of things get a sudden burst of media coverage, but that doesn't make them encyclopedic, which should be the determining factor for inclusion in an ''encyclopedia
