Nothing better than mere-mentions in independent sources. Does not meet WP:GNG. Awards won do not meet WP:ANYBIO. signed,Rosguill talk 06:10, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Agree does not meet WP:GNG. Modest military career. Modest post-military accomplishments. David notMD (talk) 14:11, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Agree -- subject is not notable.
 * Delete Nothing that he's done is sufficiently distinguished, fails WP:NSOLDIER as well as WP:NBIO, a search reveals no coverage that would establish notability Eddie891 Talk Work 17:52, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. The sources cited provide no evidence of notability. Maproom (talk) 22:20, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Postpone AFD The People's Action Party have just announced him as a candidate for the 2020 Singaporean general election on 10 July, which is just two weeks away. If he wins (which is likely), he will almost certainly be notable as a member of a national parliament, and if he loses, the election coverage will help us better evaluate his notability. That the primary contributor Thang324 appears to be Huang himself or closely connected to him does not automatically mean he is not notable, but does mean that the article will need to be rewritten if kept. --Hildanknight (talk) 13:37, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect to 2020 Singaporean general election now that he's a candidate in the election. He won't be notable until (if) he wins. We don't postpone AFDs, but the redirect will easily allow the article to be recreated should he win. Eddie891 Talk Work 14:21, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect as suggested. The redirect can be reverted if and when he wins the election. – robertsky (talk) 05:15, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
 * In that case, redirect is the way to go. signed,Rosguill talk 05:33, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: Mostly edited by himself or his friends. Clearly self-promotion. BlueD954 (talk) 14:23, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: The article, which by the way, he wrote it himself, does not sound like bibliography using peacock terms and violates WP:NPOV guidelines. Pls expedite the deletion before this goes too far. SecretSquirrel78 (talk) 15:03, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete On second thoughts, editors can request WP:REFUND if and when he wins the elections. Speedy, as such articles should not have been created in the first place as it is jumping the gun. – robertsky (talk) 03:05, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
 * , the decision for redirect vs delete is based on the longstanding convention that it's appropriate to redirect a non-notable candidate to an election page. The fact that the article should not have been created has nothing to do with it, both outcomes agree that it should not have been created. signed,Rosguill talk 03:29, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
 * okie. redirect then. apologies about the flip-flop. – robertsky (talk) 06:57, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect per longstanding practice to redirect candidate's names to the article about the corresponding election. If he wins, the article can be recreated immediately. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  04:00, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect as per redirect reasons above
