Biography of a subject whose entire claim to notability is that they were executed for drug trafficking. This does not make them notable by Wikipedia standards. Mccapra (talk) 00:33, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep hi all, i created this article and others of a similar style to provided info on foreign drug mules who were caught moving drugs via Singapore's changi airport, info is impossible to find online so i had to dig into archived newspapers (i have provided links throughout). i wanted to record the circumstances of their arrest and their attempts to present legal arguments to get off the charge, which always failed ... if others think its not Notable there isnt much i can say in reply as that is their opinion, howevere i will point out there are countless other articles that could be considered not notable, such as Duncan McKenzie (murderer), that have been on wikipedia for many years without any issues at all — Preceding unsigned comment added by WorldTravleerAndPhotoTaker (talk • contribs) 08:35, 24 January 2023 (UTC)

 * how about i create a new page "Drug Trafficking in Singapore" and add in each of the offending articles as paragraphs, would that work ? please dont delete until i get direction ... it would look something like this:
 * opening paragraph
 * the brief history is blah blah
 * can be split into 2: local dealers and drug mules caught at airport
 * notable local drug busts
 * bust a
 * arrest of offender
 * trail
 * verdict and sentence
 * notable drug mules
 * person a
 * arrest
 * trail
 * verdict and sentence
 * person b
 * arrest
 * trail
 * verdict and sentence

 * I personally think it would be an improvement, since it answers the question of "why I do need to know this?" I can't speak for other people, but if it was a good article then hey. How many arrests were there? Elinruby (talk) 11:12, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Comment the general topic of drug laws in Singapore, together eth relatec enforcement and punishments, is certainly notable, and a brief para about individual cases would be appropriate in my view. Mccapra (talk) 12:22, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Reiterating support for the author's proposal to combine the articles about individual arrests Elinruby (talk) 01:19, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * hi all, there is little point having a brief paragraph about each when a user can view the ref links to the newspapaer articles instead IMO WorldTravleerAndPhotoTaker (talk) 10:11, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
 * That sounds like an argument for deleting the whole of Wikipedia. After all, we are only supposed to contain content that is verifiable to independent reliable sources. Phil Bridger (talk) 22:10, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

* Keep as case of co accused Ho So Mui was unique in how she was re arrested after first acquittal but authorities fast tracked the prosecutions appeal to be heard in a matter of weeks instead of the ususal 6 to 9 months — Preceding unsigned comment added by WorldTravleerAndPhotoTaker (talk • contribs) 15:59, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
