This article covers a non-notable criminal. The notability criteria for criminals may be found on WP:PERP: "(1) The perpetrator is notable for something beyond the crime itself. (2) The victim is a renowned world figure, or immediate family member of a renowned world figure, including but not limited to politicians or worldwide celebrities... (3) The motivation for the crime or the execution of the crime is unusual or has otherwise been considered noteworthy such that it is a well-documented historic event." Robert Maday has not received news coverage for a while; the coverage died down a few days after the crime took place. Furthermore, to my knowledge there was no notable victim.

Delete fails WP:PERP. nothing special about his crimes, his rearrest adds nothing to his notability. LibStar (talk) 07:27, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
:Precisely. There are many criminals who have had similar notoriety, but they're not necessarily notable enough to have an article on Wikipedia. Edge3 (talk) 15:45, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Delete I have relatively inclusive standards for major criminals, but this not really major. The only possibly significant event is the escaper in 2009, and I think NOT NEWS is applicable here. DGG ( talk ) 01:12, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
Delete: What elements of WP:PERP does this guy fulfill to end-around the GNG? A glance at Google News shows nothing before the major press flood and almost nothing thereafter; two articles in local papers about his sentencing in April, and ironically enough, an article in a local paper in January discussing the layoff of several policemen with the statement that locals already seemed to have forgotten Maday's fugitive flight.
