It's marked for deletion because this article was created in response to what happened in Canada. He is only notable for one event, which only just happened, and as per Wikipedia's One Event rule he is not notable enough to warrant an article about him. Or at least, that's what the process of marking it for deletion is supposed to decide on.

When an individual is significant for their role in a single event, it may be unclear whether an article should be written about the individual, the event or both. In considering whether to create separate articles, the degree of significance of the event itself and of the individual's role within it should both be considered. The general rule is to cover the event, not the person.

So there's a separate article about the event and he should just be mentioned there? It doesn't merit two separate articles?

Cool, where's the article about the Canadian parliament honoring him?

The general sentiment seems to be heavily in favor of either keeping the article as is, or rewriting it to be about the event.

It's interesting how Wikipedia is accused of bias from all sides, by people who can't be bothered to figure out how it works.

So there's not an article about the event yet?

[-] TWeaK@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

No. Because, for whatever reason, the person who first decided to write an article chose to write it about the person instead of the event.

You could write an article yourself if you wanted.

[-] Serdan@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

The article about the person is still up.

Someone proposed deletion due to the subject not being notable. The next step is finding a consensus.

Currently it looks to me like the article gets to remain as is.

This is what I mean by not bothering to understand how it works.

People shouldn't have to pour over pages of documentation, debates and policies to read an online wiki that's crazy
