    @Icewhiz: The fact that a small article is well sourced does not automatically render it admissible. For the notability, I want proof. --Panam2014 (talk) 00:00, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
    The onus is on the proposer to outline a deletion rationale. Your rationale was stated "event not known". This event is clearly known, and has been covered by just about every major world outlet and can be seen by even a cursory BEFORE - with coverage persisting from the event to today.Icewhiz (talk) 00:07, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
    @Icewhiz: No. The event is not know and there are no coverage during the coverage is not persisting today and there are no proof that the coverage will continue in the next weeks and months. --Panam2014 (talk) 00:13, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
    • Delete No lasting significance. No one killed. This is a routine crime. Misplaced Pages cannot document every motor vehicle collision. For inexplicable reasons a couple of other minor, unrelated incidents (some with no credible indication of Islamist terrorism) have been added-on in an attempt to build an article. AusLondonder (talk) 07:36, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
    • Delete No indication of any lasting significance. The fact that more than half of the article is about other recent events in France is a gigantic give-away that this simply isn't remotely notable, beyond perhaps a mention on list of incidents page. Editors should learn the difference between 'launching an investigation' (as to whether an incident is terrorist in nature), 'charging someone with a terrorist offence' (which means they think the incident is terrorist in nature), and finding someone guilty of said offence. Trying to establish if there are little green men on Mars does not mean that there are little green men on Mars. None of the authorities or sources are even speculating on an Islamist motive, yet the article treats that motive as fact.Pincrete (talk) 16:14, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
    @Pincrete: How about we keep it until the terror investigation is concluded? --HeinzMaster (talk) 13:01, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
    It doesn't work that way, the burden of proof rests with those claiming notability. We have no way of knowing that an investigation will establish anything. In my experience, 'non-juicy' outcomes don't get recorded at all.

    Pincrete (talk) 17:08, 18 August 2017 (UTC)

    @Pincrete: According to one of the sources, "The Paris prosecutor's office said it was "pursuing perpetrators on charges of the attempted murder of security forces in connection with a terrorist enterprise". Hence while there is no proof it was a islamic in nature, it is still a terrorist attack. Terrorist attacks don't have to be islamic you know--HeinzMaster (talk) 13:17, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
    I have removed the speculated Islamist background, this is pure OR, since no source has even speculated about any possible motive so far and the named accused is covered by BLP. Pincrete (talk) 16:20, 18 August 2017 (UTC)

    Delete - This incident is the latest example of bandwagon creation of articles for non-notable events just because the event is in the media. Sport and politics (talk) 17:27, 18 August 2017 (UTC)

    The problem is the majority of the pages were kept by lack of consensus and a new request is possible for them. The majority have not been heavily covered and the latter has made even less "noise." And that he is in the hospital does not change the eligibility. Nothing says that when you leave the hospital you will hear about it again. This is what comes under "WP: CRYSTAL". --Panam2014 (talk) 12:50, 20 August 2017 (UTC)
