Checking against GA criteria

 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose):
 * The article is reasonably well written
 * b (MoS):
 * Would suggest a suitable infobox is added, and that the background section be expanded to give some account of his life. A section of reception / criticism of his films would be good as well. Any reliable sources in the additional sources section should eb converted to inline citations tied to the statements they support;
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references):
 * ref #12 is a dead link; includes cameos by prominent Singapore film-makers such as Juan Foo, Tan Pin Pin, Sun Koh, Kristin Saw and Lionel Chok. only two of these are supported by ref #3 ; ref #6  supports the fact that the film won 2nd place in the Digital Short Film - Open Category, not overall at the fiesta ss implied; ref #10  is OK, but makes no connection with the film; neither does ref #15  which as a press release is a WP:primary source.
 * b (citations to reliable sources):
 * ref #4 appears to be a blog, not a reliable source and doesn't support the fact that Tan made the video, just that he used to be the drummer;  ref #8  is not a reliable source, see the statement on the website: Youth.SG does not control all the Content posted via the website and, as such, does not guarantee the accuracy, integrity or quality of its Content.; ref #9  does not appear to meet the reliable source standards; ref #11  is a self-published source, not reliable; ref #13  is a blog, not RS;
 * c (OR):
 * The connection made between Tan's film and the availability of sports pitches appears to be original research
 * 1) It is broad in its scope.
 * a (major aspects):
 * No details about birth, upbringing, eduction - the sort of details that should be included in a biography.
 * b (focused):
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * Insufficient content to determine
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars etc.:
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):
 * b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * Not applicable no images used.
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * Overall, this article is a long way away from good article standards so I will not be listing it at this time. Jezhotwells (talk) 19:16, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
