There was a comment that it had been prodded and deprodded before and that seven murders is more than one event. The murders were all seperate of each other by a suspected serial killer so that makes it significant in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 02:20, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: as not notable. There is some major confusion here. The title of the article Beer Man was given to a serial killer that left beer bottles on the victims. I am not as concerned with the "prodded and deprodded" aspect. The name Ravindra Kantrole has been associated with the title but the High Court acquitted this person of any involvement in the murders due to lack of evidence. Considering this, what are we doing here? This should be speedy deleted as violating BLP policy. Otr500 (talk) 03:45, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I agree with Otr500. Not seeing anything note worthy to keep this article. KartikeyaS (talk) 08:20, 6 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comments: I am sure this could have/should have been submitted/deleted as an article that violates our BLP policies. I have not looked at any of this but if the person named is not linked to the crimes, found not guilty or exonerated, then it should not exist as harmful to the actual subject. Surely that is why we have such policies and guidelines. I have to go to work (it happens to working stiffs) but if this is somehow relisted I will look into going that route.
