The result of the move request was: Moved to Killing of Zijie Yan. ( closed by non-admin page mover) — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mello hi! ( 投稿) 14:19, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
Shooting of Zijie Yan → Death of Zijie Yan – Neutral title until conviction is secured. -- Jax 0677 ( talk) 01:22, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
Sometimes, the manner in which the victim was killed will figure prominently in media coverage ...). Though the WP:DEATHS flowchart says "Shooting" is reserved for non-deaths, this is not a distinction that's actually observed (six of the top ten autocomplete hits for "Shooting of" were fatal).

As a reader, I can’t see why this incident is noteworthy enough to warrant an entry in Wikipedia. Newzild ( talk) 02:31, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
There doesn't seem to be any discussion of the shooter's motive (or even possible motives). That's usually the first thing in the "second wave" of media coverage, even if it's speculation. There's more discussion of the "unrelated lockdown two weeks later"; if the motive is entirely unknown, the article should say so. Piledhigheranddeeper ( talk) 21:13, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
