Talk:Healthcare in Singapore/Archive 1

NYT article
Here is an article about legal steps taken to combat disease in Singapore over the years. It's a New York Times article from 2003, and has information that I think would be quite relevant here. TastyCakes (talk) 20:33, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

"Singapore generally has an efficient and widespread system of health care." From the first paragraph - Isnt this pure opinion not fact? Chrisp7 (talk) 12:27, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Singapore government healthcare expenditure is actually lower at 1.4% of GDP. Singapore does have one of the best health care systems in the world. How do you think Bloomberg ranked it number 2 in efficiency? Its life expectancy is among the highest but total health expenditure is among the lowest. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.255.2.153 (talk) 15:10, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

Merger proposal
I understand that this page itself is not involved in the merger, but I wanted to discuss all the mergers in one place. Please refer to the discussion below and we can continue from there.--Officer781 (talk) 12:31, 23 August 2019 (UTC)

(Copied from Wikipedia talk: SGpedians' notice board) The administrator CASSIOPEIA says that sources with a passing reference to the subject are not enough, which includes the links proposed. I'm not sure how to get it to graduate AfC, which I feel should be because we already have articles for all the other national specialty centres in Singapore. It is not very fair for this one not to have its own entry.
 * {|class="wikitable"

!National specialty centre || Healthcare cluster
 * National Cancer Centre Singapore || SingHealth
 * National Dental Centre Singapore || SingHealth
 * National Heart Centre Singapore || SingHealth
 * National Neuroscience Institute || SingHealth
 * National Skin Centre || National Healthcare Group
 * National University Cancer Institute, Singapore || National University Health System
 * National University Centre for Oral Health, Singapore || National University Health System
 * National University Heart Centre, Singapore || National University Health System
 * Singapore National Eye Centre || SingHealth
 * }
 * National University Cancer Institute, Singapore || National University Health System
 * National University Centre for Oral Health, Singapore || National University Health System
 * National University Heart Centre, Singapore || National University Health System
 * Singapore National Eye Centre || SingHealth
 * }
 * National University Heart Centre, Singapore || National University Health System
 * Singapore National Eye Centre || SingHealth
 * }
 * }

As a result me and CASSIOPEIA have proposed merging all of these articles under their respective healthcare cluster articles, as most of these articles do not warrant their own subpages (lack of notability) and also to treat all National Specialty Centres consistently on Wikipedia. What do you guys think?--Officer781 (talk) 04:50, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
 * was going through several of these pages earlier, and I wanted to suggest the same. Most of these pages were created circa 2005 without much updates. Their notability is a suspect. I don't mind them being merged. Point me to the right location to add my comments if there is a discussion somewhere else. robertsky (talk) 05:52, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
 * CASSIOPEIA is not going to be drawn into a discussion about content so if a merged article is better, go ahead and do it! Since attention has been drawn to it, there is a likely chance that they might be nominated for AFD, especially some does not not have references. A merge will get some content saved. --Xaiver0510 (talk) 06:21, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes. merge is a good idea, either back to the page that you started from or create an entirely new page for it. 1.02 editor (T/C) 11:46, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I will say keep the draft and improve on it. If you ask me, this article deserves to be created. I don't mind having the articles merged.TheGreatSG&#39;rean (talk) 12:56, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
