The result was keep. I think it is reasonable to invoke WP:SNOW at this time. A number of editors have mentioned that the topic could perhaps better exist as Death of Khaled Mohamed Saeed. If so, discussion on that can continue on the talk page. NW ( Talk) 02:51, 30 January 2011 (UTC) reply
He died, alleged police brutality, pops back in the news today because the release oh his photo in the midst of the recent unrest has fanned the flames a tad. That's it. I initially mistakenly believed he died during the recent Egyptian unrest and attempted a redirect to such, but now I do not feel that is a feasible solution. This is WP:NOTNEWS and WP:BLP1E (though the "L" does not literally apply anymore, the concept is the same). It is worth a sentence or two in the 2011 article that his autopsy photo is causing a bit of a ruckus. Please note that "it is reliably sourced!" is not a valid reason for retention when discussing a person known for one event. If it can be shown that the event (death) itself is exceptionally notable, i.e. similar to the Death of Neda Agha-Soltan, then so be it...and the article can be retooled to address the event rather than the person himself...but IMO this does not rise to anything close in terms of impact and sustained world-wide coverage.

I agree with Hobit that this seems inflammatory. I would agree that it should be moved to "Death of..." but considering that it is an important part of what the Egyptian world is using to show corruption, the article itself should stay. Also, Mohamed ElBaradei has visited Saeed's family, suggesting that this is still an important issue within the protests. (I've never discussed on the talk page, so I'm sorry if I added my part incorrectly)
