2015 Chapel Hill shooting

[edit]
  • ALT1 :... that the suspect of the deadly shootings in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, was the victims' neighbor?
  • Reviewed: Lilian Knowles
  • Comment: Failed ITN nomination; don't know when it'll be re-nominated. The article was created on 11 February (UTC), a day prior to further fivefold. Feel free to add more ALTs.

5x expanded by Classicfilms (talk), WWGB (talk), Aumnamahashiva (talk), and Libertarian12111971 (talk). Nominated by George Ho (talk) at 06:34, 19 February 2015 (UTC).

  • Restored ALT1, which I don't think is unduly negative. Many media outlets have reported that the only suspect is the victims' neighbor, and the hook does not really name any names. However, the link supporting the hook (ref #6) is dead and needs to be replaced. -Zanhe (talk) 07:35, 5 April 2015 (UTC)
  • Thanks for fixing the ref. However, the source only says neighbor, not next-door neighbor, so I removed "next-door" from the article and ALT1. ALT1 is otherwise supported by inline references. The article is new enough, long enough, and well referenced. QPQ is done. Spot-checked for copyvio, and no issues detected. ALT1 Good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 05:05, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
