A Kashmiri militant who was in the news for his death. Kashmir is a warzone and local commanders from both side do not become notable after dying, so fails WP:SINGLEEVENT. Fails WP:MILPERSON as local commanders of militant organisations are not notable. DBigXray 08:13, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: The killing of the subject is purely notable as many civilians were injured during the clashes in solidarity with him. The rest of situation have already been provided for same nomination. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 12:11, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Note to closing admin: TheBirdsShedTears (talkcontribs) is the creator of the page that is the subject of this AfD.
Clashes with the police is a common incident on a warzone and happens on weekly (sometimes even daily) basis. Protesters and policemen/forces also get injured, So I can't see why his death is especially notable. The case of Burhan Wani was notable, but the same cannot be said for all the militant area commanders who were killed in action. ⋙–DBigXray 12:19, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Since 1989, hundreds of militants were killed in uprising revolt, but only a few of them were credited with historical notes and the subject in question was among those. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 12:51, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
There is no evidence that this death is historical. --⋙–DBigXray 13:24, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
