 | This page in a nutshell: Articles that are subject to news coverage should not be nominated for deletion if they meet Wikipedia’s general notability requirements and notability requirements for events. |
When nominating an article that has received significant news coverage for deletion for violating WP:NOTNEWS, it is important to consider whether the article meets notability requirements. If the article fails the requirements, a deletion or merge is an appropriate response. However, if it does meet notability requirements, the article should not be nominated for deletion.
