 * Comment If I was the subject, I would not be pleased with the negative portrayal, but a request from the subject for deletion is not in itself addequate grounds. Say what you will about the overbearing HK media because the crime is a minor one, but the event was a significant controversy in Hong Kong worthy of a WP article. It seems otherwise to be written in a fairly objective manner, and therefore does not fall into the category of an attack page. --  Ohc  ¡digame! 10:18, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep - The controversy did look like a storm in a tea cup but is nonetheless notable according to Wikipedia. STSC (talk) 19:17, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. Note that I am an OTRS agent. We cannot disclose the contents of the tickets beyond saying that it contained a request for deletion of this article. This nomination should be considered procedurally made by an OTRS agent. may or may not support deletion, but I don't believe he intends to fall one way or the other in this discussion (correct me if wrong). My !vote is based on the coverage the topic has received. ~ Rob 13 Talk 01:26, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Exactly. If the subject of an article requests deletion of the article we typically inform them how they can request that themselves, but if they have difficulty we offer to do it for them. Unless we arrange for the permission of the person contacting us, we not permitted to provide details. The nomination does not necessarily reflect my views regarding the article. In some cases, we may advise the subject that it is likely to be a waste of time, but if they insist we carry it out.-- S Philbrick (Talk)  11:53, 25 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep - Well sourced article that has significant coverage. RileyBugz 会話 投稿記録  01:39, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep This story was extensively covered in HK media at the time and the article reflects that. Matt's talk 08:03, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep Article isn't violating any policy. Request from subject of the controversy is noted, but there will still be people that want to read about it and not wanting it being read, isn't enough a reason to delete.  WikiVirus  C (talk) 10:19, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Pile-on keep. I respect Bokhary's wish to take down the article, but this article is neutrally written and sourced from publicly available information. Deryck C. 11:10, 26 July 2017 (UTC)
