Benjamin Wan

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

I am unable to verify the existence of the subject, and even if details of his life could be verified, I am not sure that this person would be notable.

Article states that subject has won awards in a major competition (Singapore Violin Challenge) of which I cannot verify the existence. I think this is his major point of notability.

Subject also has led his institution, a school, to win a national award at the Singapore Youth Festival. This festival exists but I was not able to verify the award, nor am I sure whether it makes subject notable.

Article is otherwise odd - subject described as a hero for battling condition caused by having one testicle. It has been edited by a lot of users with content added and removed, but it was not obvious to me that anything notable was ever written about this person in the deleted history.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete unsourced BLP, probable attack content, blatantly fails WP:N, should have just been deleted instead of being relisted. Checked for reliable sources in English and Chinese, found none (see search). As far as I can tell, the real Benjamin Wan is a middle school student. cab (talk) 01:07, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. I can't verify his existence either; see this search giving 44 lame Ghits.  Even if everything is true, he badly fails every factor in WP:MUSIC. Bearian (talk) 17:46, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
