Notable???

Is she really so notable to warrant a page? BernardZ (talk) 17:08, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please add the same question in the talkpages of the articles concerning other journalists killed in the Syrian civil war.Egeymi (talk) 17:44, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It is a good point but surely when you start going from one down to fifteen, things change. The first person on Mt Everest is notable but the second is less and so on. Somewhere the line must be drawn?

BernardZ (talk) 11:03, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If only the first ones are notable, she also meets the criteria, since she is the first Japanese journalist and first journalist killed in Aleppo. Egeymi (talk) 13:47, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, notable. It is a major oversight that this page wasn't created long before her death. End of discussion. حرية (talk) 05:01, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
