Fails NOTNEWS, PERSISTENCE, VICTIM, and likely EVENT. This article was written in a two-day period in 2012, based on Norwegian language Internet sources dating from around the time of the incident (February 2010). Aside from the contemporary coverage in February 2010 at the time of the event, and two short pieces on the trial outcome and denied appeal, there are no indicators that this case has achieved any sort of notability.

  • weak keep - reliable sourcing, got alot of broad coverage around the time it happened. And the continued coverage even two years later indicates notability. How it was written is non-essential to the notability of it and ofcourse most sources comes from 2012 when it happened again not cause for deletion.--BabbaQ (talk) 21:00, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
  • delete WP does not report every murder, and there is insufficient persistent coverage to meet WP:Event. LibStar (talk) 22:23, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
  • keep Obviously major news in Norway, making headlines in consecutive months, and remains a major event in Norwegian criminal history. There is plenty of examples of other lesser known crimes which have gotten articles.--Roghue 19:42, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

  • Comment - I'm a little twisted on this on. I not in favour of deleting well-written and well-sourced articles from Wikipedia, but on the other hand I do agree to some extent that the topic fails WP:PERSISTENCE. But Roghue claims that this is "a major event in Norwegian criminal history" - do you have any reliable sources that confirm this claim ? Mentoz86 (talk) 15:00, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Comment - Roghue is also the article creator. MSJapan (talk) 21:17, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Comment - I'm fully aware of it, and most of Roghue contributions are well-written and well-sourced, that's why I'm reluctant to deleting this. Mentoz86 (talk) 21:28, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
