Adrian Khoo
An article on a school student who won an award, admittedly an important one, but this is still a non-notable bio which is classified as vanity. The kid hasn't achieved nearly enough notability to warrant an article, and while Hamedog has done a great job with his school's article, writing an entry on a fellow student goes beyond what is acceptable on Wikipedia.

Comment. This guy was the best student in the whole of WA. He's obviously going to do well. Soak it up Khoo. JB
 * Delete. No doubt he's an excellent student, but getting high marks on exams (even getting very high marks on a number of exams and winning a notable student award) doesn't really make an individual notable in an encyclopedic sense.  Really, I think an abbreviated biography of him should just be merged at Beazley Medal.  Khoo seems on a track for great things in this life, but let's wait till he finishes university and then we can judge his accomplishments in the real world.--Pharos 07:18, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

 * '''Khoo was an excellent student no doubt but he hasnt really acheived anything in the real world. Even if you do have excellent grades and do well in exams it doesnt mean you will be a success in the future. I disagree with every ones opinion of him. All the outstanding men and woman in the current world have their succeses based on luck and not acedemics... although it is helpful it will be chance and luck that will bring success. Dont worry the people who are not bright or acedemically inclined, you still have the same oppitunitys as Adrian Khoo. By the way HE MIGHT DO WELL. NOT WILL........ Summited by MMS
