[edit]

I don't understand. My article is not unsalvageably incoherent with no meaningful content or history? Poorly written maybe because I am not the best writer but it is about a child at the center of a very prominent case in New Zealand. Look at all the articles at this link http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nia-glassie/search/results.cfm?kw1=Nia%20Glassie&kw2=&op=all&searchorder=2&display=100&start=0&thepage=1&st=gsa about it. I'm sorry if I have broken any policies or anything but I don't see why my article should be deleted?

Article title

[edit]

I thought I'd better discuss before reverting anything, but I believe that Nia Glassie case is better than Nia Glassie abuse case. After all, there have been murder and manslaughter verdicts, so there is an equally strong argument for Nia Glassie murder case. Nia Glassie abuse and murder case is simply too cumbersome. Not that if we revert to Nia Glassie case, the abuse title will still lead to the article via a redirect. dramatic (talk) 08:08, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No objection from me - I think that since there's only one "Nia Glassie case" there's no need to qualify it with "abuse" or "murder" (though the more emotional part of me thinks "Nia Glassie murder case" is better - a small child was murdered, dammit! I'm trying to keep that part of me in check, though!) Cheers, This flag once was redpropagandadeeds 01:07, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I would prefer "Nia Glassie <something> case". Titles should be specific and "Nia Glassie case" is ambiguous as to what the case involves. I would rather we omit "case" altogether though and have something similar to Disappearance of Madeleine McCann but I can't think of anything that sounds right ... Murder of Nia Glassie perhaps? ~ User:Ameliorate! (with the !) (talk) 02:24, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Murder of Nia Glassie works for me. Sadly, I think one of the significant things about this case is that - if it were purely about abuse - it wouldn't have come to light; it's the fact that Nia Glassie died that made this so significant.
