Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Omran Daqneesh
the three !votes above do not give a strong argument for their position. As for the subject meeting , while the image has been reprinted widely by many major news outlets, the coverage is largely similar description of the same information, and then more general coverage about the Syrian Civil War. Much of the in-depth coverage doesn't address the subject directly, but rather uses the subject as a platform to address a related topic in depth; I do not feel this counts toward notability. The event happened only on Wednesday; |Wikipedia is not a newspaper, and it is not our job to report on everything that captures widespread media attention. Articles are based on enduring significance, and it is currently unclear if this subject or the subject's image will have that. (For comparison, see Death of Alan Kurdi, especially {{slink|Death of Alan Kurdi|Debate on the public responses to the pictures}}, {{slink|Death of Alan Kurdi|Impact on the 2015 Canadian federal election}}, {{slink|Death of Alan Kurdi|Legacy}}. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Death_of_Alan_Kurdi&direction=prev&oldid=679728529 Link to article at the time of ''its'' AfD.) The Omran Daqneesh images have not garnered that level of significance. The photograph and video footage has yet to garner the kind of depth that would warrant an article, either as a biography or an event, and the media interest alone is not enough to warrant an article. As I stated in my nom, if the interest and coverage continues, the article can be recreated at a later date. ~Cheers
