List of insurance companies in Singapore

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This list clearly goes against WP:NOT. Half a dozen non-red links, and a couple of those go to external websites. Russavia 23:25, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOT. I can understand a list of hotels, but insurance companies? Ten Pound Hammer  • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 23:27, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. If we can have countless lists on various company types in Category:Lists of companies, is there any particular reason why insurance companies are out?--Huaiwei 07:14, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete "Category:Insurance companies in Singapore" is understandable, but this is against WP:NOT --H| H irohisat  Talk 23:31, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Wikipedia is not a directory, maybe in the main article but not in a separate article.--JForget 00:21, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Unless this list contains nothing but full addressess and contact numbers etc, it dosent work as a "directory". This is nothing more than a simple Lists of names classified by type, and that is permissable in wikipedia. Otherwise, I will be questioning the existance of just about any article in Category:Lists.--Huaiwei 06:40, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikipedia is not a directory. Keb25 07:46, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. This article is a list of company names. This is not a directory.--Huaiwei 08:04, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Not indiscriminate. Provides information which the category does and cannot provide. Abberley2 12:13, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per Hirohisat. Since this is a legitimate grouping, there's no reason not provide a structured, annotated list which is far more informative and useful that the blank lists provided by categories. Kappa 03:26, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually a category is not a good idea, because it would spam up the company articles with a category for every country they operate in. Nevertheless a legit grouping for a list. Kappa 03:34, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete Not useful for navigation as the list is almost all redlinks and really provides little if any information. This list is exactly what I would expect to find in the Singaporean Yellow pages and Wikipedia is not that. Pascal.Tesson 18:36, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
