524:. It's hard to find now, but his death got significant media coverage at the time. Some examples are: "Canadian soldier killed just after truce deadline in Bosnia Death may again raise questions about suitability of lightly armoured personnel carriers in combat zones." Globe & Mail 19 June 1993: A12.; "CANADA WATCH Quebec peacekeeper remembered." Globe & Mail 24 June 1993: A4. 577:, which likewise is a popular magazine, not the type of thing on which encyclopedia articles are written. News coverage at the time of his death, being written at the time of his death, is by definition a primary source, not a secondary source. I'm willing to change my mind if given solid secondary sourcing, but none has yet been presented. 594:- I don't like the article the way it sits, but that's not the issue. The question is whether this is a GNG pass or a One Event, Not News fail... My sense is that it is the former, based on the lasting public and government reaction to his death. Piece needs to be either rewritten as a biography or retitled as a "Death of" piece. 431:
It would be difficult to ask for much more in terms of sources here... there are inline citations, good ones, for practically every sentence. You want to be able to look up this sort of information here, this is what Knowledge was made for. Not every article can be the kind of general nouns you

On one had there is a bunch of assertions that this passes the GNG and on the other that it doesn't. To be clear mentions doesn't cut it because GNG requires detailed sourcing but milage on that varies. I think some commentary about the depth of detail of the sourcing will help the closing admin
573:, which judging by its article is a popular magazine written largely by one guy with some outside contributors: it's basically a self-published source. The exceptions are a book published by the same guy (not a prominent publisher with high reputation) and one thing by 513: 168: 612:
welcome your feedback and comments. I rewrote the entire article two times and added number of sources since it was nominated. Am open to suggested improvements. thanks
162: 121: 216: 277: 236: 323:. Actually mentioned in a number of books and magazines due to timing of the incident and the controversial nature of military's lack of transparency. 128: 94: 89: 98: 81: 17: 183: 150: 552: 437: 199:
I don't feel that this person is notable. Fails WP:SOLDIER - does being mentioned in a book make him notable enough?
570: 640: 574: 40: 144: 433: 259:. Junior NCO. No significant awards. Just a bit of minor controversy surrounding his death. Not notable. -- 621: 603: 586: 557: 533: 496: 482: 458: 441: 419: 395: 377: 351: 332: 309: 289: 268: 248: 228: 208: 140: 63: 529: 454: 636: 416: 60: 36: 190: 375: 264: 244: 224: 541:. The sources provided by Tchaliburton suffice. Haven't considered all the previous discussion. -- 305: 176: 85: 449:
Doesn't meet GNG or even SOLDIER. Doesn't have significant coverage in multiple reliable sources.
