Saw Phaik Hwa

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Wasn't quite sure what to do with this one. As it stands, is a negatively-worded, barely-sourced BLP that comes close to an attack page. But as speedy is only for unsourced BLPs that are attack pages, I couldn't nominate for a speedy. I think she's semi-notable in the sense that she was CEO of Singapore's national rail company, but as it stands the article needs to go as a negative BLP. —Strange Passerby (talk • cont) 18:47, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

keep, though I agree with all of the nom's comments. Horribly written and negative, but I think she's notable. I found a number of references on a quick google search. Creator seems interested in improving article.   Wikipelli Talk   22:23, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm not disputing that she's notable. I think we need a total start from scratch here though, this is a serious WP:BLP issue. —Strange Passerby (talk • cont) 22:35, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I've taken out the bulk of the negative, and some of the sentences that didn't translate easily into English. I don't have the full picture of the SMRT but I think the article can stand. The creator might have shot themselves in the foot by trying to put up a negative article only to have it become a neutral article   Wikipelli Talk   23:19, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. Wonder if the old versions should be rev-deleted. As it stands I'm happy to withdraw this nomination — but urge any passing admin to see if the article's history can legitimately be revdel'd. —Strange Passerby (talk • cont) 23:22, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
