The result was keep. I think that there's enough participation to show that consensus hasn't changed from the first AFD. Let's wait 3-6 months before beating this horse again. Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:31, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

common type murder-suicide, run of the mill case. Night of the Big Wind talk 22:36, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Death of Deriek Wayne Crouse. It has received substantial national media coverage. Tiptoety talk 22:41, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- It is still a run of the mill case. Unfortunately, completely common in US-society. Night of the Big Wind talk 23:10, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep For the same reason people said to keep it a few months ago at the last AFD. Lasting coverage over months, not just for the event, but for his honors and memorials received. [1] Dream Focus 23:24, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - Was kept just a short time ago at a AfD. Nothing has changed since to convince me that this article shouldnt be kept.--BabbaQ (talk) 12:50, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Nice trick, a speedy non-admin close, but I don't agree with that. It is still a run of the mill murder that only got publicity because of the place where it took place. The scope hunting media where there streaight away, but even a lot of coverage does not make it notable. Coverage is not a guarantee for notability, it only helps. This is also a typical case of the pro-US-POV. A double murder like this in Japan, Mexico, Great-Britain, India or Germany (to name a few countries) will never make it into Wikipedia, just because it did not happen in the United States of America.

- Might be. But I do hope you realise the slim chance of this article being deleted at this time.--BabbaQ (talk) 20:07, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
