Wikipedia is not a news website, nor is it a memorial website

Latest comment: 5 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

@MelikaShokoufandeh: Wikipedia is not a news website, nor is it a memorial website. Notable events have a range of inclusion criteria that extend beyond just routine news coverage. In short, such articles need to demonstrate an impact on society and the world. What makes the killing of retired Brigadier-General Latif Karimi stand out from the many others killings that have occurred during the 2025–2026 Iranian protests? What heroism can be attributed to him? He does not have his own biography, suggesting his military career was not notable and he is just another low-profile individual who was in the wrong place at the wrong time and was killed as a result. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 00:24, 17 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
