2015 Mangaluru youth assult

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

A very local criminal act covered by local media sources. No notable in the wider world, despite being deplorable and highly reprehensible. Regrettably if we included all such acts as Wikipedia articles the encyclopaedia would be overwhelmed Velella ^{Velella Talk} 19:48, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Media sources are national not local but can be merged with other moral policing incidents of Bajrang Dal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kotapuranu (talk • contribs) 19:53, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. The "assult" was not a "public lynching" as claimed, but rather a beating. If it had involved a death, maybe it would have merited an article. Wikipedia is not a newspaper. Clarityfiend (talk) 23:29, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: for its dishonest, misleading and exploitative crux. Sadly, in the world in which we live, conflicts are increasing not decreasing, and conflicts without fatalities (aside from exceptional cases such as the 4 Americans who stopped the jihadist on that Paris-Amsterdam train) are simply not notable per se.

How can you say it "dishonest" and "exploitative crux"? I used the title because many news sources and TV channels showed that title such as The Hindu itself. I didn't know it requires deaths for inclusion as I have seen similar articles like 2012 Fatehpur violence which doesn't involve any deaths. Anyway, please, do not make blind allegations. Thank you.
