Although only listed for a short amount of time, there has been very heavy, unanimous agreement to keep, with all contributors agreeing that the subject is clearly sufficiently notable for a Knowledge article. There seems little point in keeping this running, when the riot is so high profile, and an obvious major event. If anybody objects to this closing, please leave a note on my talk page.

340:
Plentiful coverage, establishing notability per the main notability guideline, including internationally such as on the front page of CNN and ABC (Australia).

if informants are true, so waite a while to see if it goes off tonight or allied riots occer in Wood Green and
Brixton. I say give it a week or two.
