 * Delete - The article is poorly sourced and there is little likelihood of addressing this in the near future with reliable sources as there are no matches in Google News and only minor mentions in Google Books (as far as I can make out). It should be noted that the article is an unsourced gossip magnet and may need long term protection if kept or salting if deleted. Fæ (talk) 05:03, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Strongly dose with vim and scrub (weak, weak keep) - being a Singaporean. I initially wanted to "delete" because: Even though the sources currently in article can be verified using Factiva (because Google News doesn't go back that far for Straits Times), as far as our police can tell they aren't sure whether "recent activities" attributed to this group in the article are authentic or just done by copycat groups - unverifiable. Roughly all the material after cite #4 is unsourced speculation. A reliably sourced article on this group vouching for its notability could be written, but this isn't it. That said, cleanup can be done here without resorting to deletion. Kimchi.sg (talk) 14:15, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Note, a separate search on LexisNexis under all languages shows no matches under "Salakau". LexisNexis is considered pretty comprehensive as a newspaper search. Fæ (talk) 10:48, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Keep and clean-up per Kimchi. PicodeGato (talk) 01:18, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
