The result was delete. WP:NOTNEWS is concerned with whether the notability of the event will withstand the test of time. Even though this may have had international coverage, there is nothing to suggest that the coverage will endure. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia; as such, it covers topics that last.

A non-notable snowball fight. Quite simply a policeman acted in misconduct and it made local headlines for an hour. This fails WP:N per WP:EVENTS - Depth of coverage, duration of coverage, geographic scope, lasting effect, and almost every other criteria we have for current events or other events. This is already article on WikiNews. Mkdwtalk 04:40, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
