Talk:Smith v. Spisak

Requested move 26 March 2025

Smith v. SpisakFrank Spisak Jr.Frank Spisak Jr. – Not all supreme court decisions are notable, and this one does not appear to be. Spisak, however, is notable as a serial murderer and terrorist. [1][2] [3], among others. Even if the case is notable Spisak as a person is the more notable topic. PARAKANYAA (talk) 01:06, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Split. The person is notable. While there are indeed non-notable U.S. Supreme Court decisions, I do not believe this is one of them. It is cited in dozens of other cases, and in several books on capital punishment. BD2412 T 03:17, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Also fine by me. I just searched it from the book and was very surprised that this is how we were covering it. PARAKANYAA (talk) 03:37, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Split. Definitely notable. Definitely could have an article on him separately. lethargilistic (talk) 17:17, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Okay I'm just going to withdraw this an make him a separate article. PARAKANYAA (talk) 22:27, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
