Murder of Elisha G. JohnsonElisha G. Johnson – "Murder of" titles should be reserved for persons who are not notable but for the fact that they were murdered. This subject, being a Florida state senator, should be notable enough to have their article under their own name, even if they did come to a notably violent end.

  • Support per nomination. A glance at Category:Florida state senators confirms that such legislators are regularly subjects of their own biographical entries. Thus, unless the murder is so sensational that it is deemed worthy of a separate article, such as in the case of Murder of Jo Cox, the victim's name should be the main title header of this article, not the circumstance of his murder. —Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 05:29, 22 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
