Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/William Parente (2nd nomination)
Per ,  and per . A splash of news coverage, but no indication it is causing any effects on society. Wikipedia is not a compilation of every murder or murderer. There have been no societal effects, such as moves to decrease the likelihood of those in financial or legal trouble murdering their families. Very tragic for the family and their friends, but there are many familicides and suicides every year, and I do not see anything encyclopedic here. See also the essay Wikipedia:Notability (news) which discusses the different goals of news editors and encyclopedia editors. If the article were to be kept, it should be retitled Parente murder-suicide, since the supposed killer was otherwise not notable
