Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Treetops Executive Residences

Discussion of new sources provided during AfD
The sources are as follows:
 * 1) http://treetops.com.sg/en/publication/59.html An article by The Edge magazine;
 * 2) http://treetops.com.sg/en/publication/60.html An article by Travellution magazine;
 * 3) http://treetops.com.sg/en/publication/48.html An article by TODAY newspaper;
 * 4) http://trendsideas.com/ViewArticle.aspx?article=14665&region=23 An article from Trends magazine;
 * 5) http://www.ourpagesonline.co.uk/flipBook/index.asp?ID=192 An article from Upward curve magazine;

The first point is that Wikipedia generally prefers to have original sources rather than those hosted elsewhere - this is because it is possible for those hosted elsewhere to have been altered, whereas those at the original source can be assumed to have not been!

OK, looking at those sources:

Firstly, I was unable to access any of the treetops.com.sg ones at all, in various browsers. The website does not appear to be working at the moment, so I cannot comment on the specific content of the three magazine scans
 * 1) Unless the Edge magazine mentioned here is the one in Wessex, England (The Edge (magazine)) or the computer magazine (Edge (magazine)), then it does not have an article on Wikipedia, so it is hard to judge the notability of the magazine and its contents.
 * 2) Travellution magazine does not have an article on Wikipedia, so it is hard to judge the notability of the magazine.
 * 3) Today (Singapore newspaper) does have an article, but without being able to see the article, I can't judge whether it is suitable.
 * 4) Trends Ideas does not have an article on Wikipedia, so it is hard to judge the notability of the magazine. The coverage is promotional, not factual. The information is all from the company (indeed it is all provided by the company's general manager)
 * 5) Upward Curve does not have an article on Wikipedia, so it is hard to judge the notability of the magazine. The coverage (on pages 27/8) says "If you prefer serviced accommodation, Treetops Residences are located just a short walk from Orchard Road. The one-, two- and three-bedroom fully-serviced apartments boast a range of services, including an outdoor swimming pool, gym, tennis courts and sauna" - this is not significant coverage - and indeed the whole article is basically a series of promotions for different establishments in Singapore.

I'll try the treetops website again on another occasions, but the 2 sources I could access are not suitable, and the first two of the treetops scans would appear to be unsuitable as I cannot judge the reliability of the sites.
