As of August 15, 2017, the article on the English Wikipedia ("Murder of Seth Rich") had a ''motion to delete'' template on it, delete on grounds of not being notable, although it averages 1500 daily views.  It was so allegedly unnotable that a strong debate was generated there on the talk page and on the Delete Articles section, where editors essentially "voted" to Keep  vs. Delete, allegedly on the grounds of non-notability.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Murder_of_Seth_Rich</ref>  Among the arguments for deleting the article there was a repetitious reference to the talking point "conspiracy theory," though the article said nothing at all about a conspiracy theory.  Also, as of August 17, 2017, the Wiki editor who started this article, was officially blocked by an administrator.  His talk page said:  "You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia."<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:TradingJihadist</ref>  As of August 21, 2016, the motion to delete was denied on grounds of no consensus, although a derogatory comment was attached attacking some of those who argued in favor of "Keep." The article was summarily locked down until August 27, 2016, and a request for mediation was filed.
