 * Comment. There would appear to be plenty of reliable sources amongst these 430 books, these 1,260 academic papers and these 215 news articles. I don't have time to look through them right now, but maybe someone would care to check them out? "Rooftop squatter" would appear to be the most commonly used term to describe this phenomenon in English. Phil Bridger (talk) 00:46, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

 * I would support keeping it if that term applies to a broad phenomenon or living arrangement, and not just something that exists in Hong Kong. I don't think there's any demonstration of notability if it's the second, but likely is if it's the first. Shadowjams (talk) 00:51, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
