These discussions are notorious for promoting ignorance in several policies, so I shall be as full as possible in laying out all of them. This is for an actual discussion about notability.

• This individual was given an article following a minor stabbing incident, and not the more serious event, neither of which are of their own article WP:RAPID applies to state that this individual is not meeting of notability.
• One major issue is the WP:OR and WP:SYNTH in parts of the background -- there are two sources were published before the stabbing. Who determined the significance of this self-constructed notability other than the article creator?
• The subject also fails WP:EVENTCRIT which advises writers to bear in mind WP:RECENTISM and that an event, such as a crime, needs more than media coverage (even if it was widely reported) to be notable.
• No such impact is found in the WP:ROUTINE three-day news cycle this incident received (remember WP:NOTNEWS?). This individual has had two events which they appeared in the news for. Simply appearing in routine news coverage does not equal or equate to being notable, consider WP:GEOSCOPE: the influence of the individual it is limited and brief, if there ever was any. Going down the list at WP:NOTE, the subject fails WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE and WP:INDEPTH; passing mentions in media reports, especially about other incidents, do not contribute to further coverage.
• I am now going to quote from WP:RSBREAKING: "All breaking news stories, without exception, are primary sources, and must be treated with caution per WP:PSTS". The majority, if not all, of the coverage for this incident was from breaking news, creating a clear lack of reliable secondary sources. Sport and politics (talk) 18:53, 2 September 2017 (UTC)

• Keep Being convicted and imprisoned for plotting to assassinate a Prime Minister is not "routine." Neither is getting paroled and attacking a police officer with a knife - whereupon Youssef was shot and killed by responding police, so the is no BLP issue. I created this article. It passes WP:NCRIME.E.M.Gregory (talk) 01:45, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
• Keep Well sourced. Lasting. 2 events. Attempting to kill a PM is not routine. Nor is being released and going on another attack.Icewhiz (talk) 12:29, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
• Keep as nominator hasn't followed WP:BEFORE. Greenbörg (talk) 10:12, 4 September 2017 (UTC)

• Keep per above and due to the fact that this is WP:POV and WP:Point and this user has consistently tried to push an agenda of eliminating coverage of terrorism. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ^ᐐT₳LKᐬ 04:40, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
