... that convicted murderer Robert Peernock attempted to hire a fellow prisoner to murder his daughter while the trial was in progress?

While this is up for deletion, the consensus so far is to keep it due to the current additions and this is just too interesting to not include.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 11:05, 7 November 2012 (UTC)

Since the AfD closed as Keep, this should be fine to review now. At the time of nomination, the article had been expanded three days earlier, so the time frame is fine. It was clearly expanded at least fivefold from its previous form and is long enough that i'm not even going to bother counting how long. The article appears to be within policy, neutrally discussing the subject's trial and it is properly referenced. The hook is less than 200 characters and, considering the subject matter, is neutral even if it is about a negative action on the subject's part. Since he was convicted for it, the fact that it happened is a neutral fact. And a QPQ review was given.

The only issue I have that is holding up this nomination is that the sentence regarding where he is being housed is unreferenced and I didn't notice the fact in any of the references available. I have tagged it with a citation needed tag. If a reference can either be added or the sentence removed, then I can approve this nomination. Silver seren^C 06:28, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

The only place that has his contact information is his own website, which is at best primary. If unusable we can always remove the sentence entirely.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 05:51, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

If it can't be properly referenced, then it would be best to remove the sentence, yeah. So long as that is done, this article should be good to go. Silver seren^C 09:36, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
