Comment: Per , list articles need sources per olden Rule that the subject is notable;  there are probably are sufficient sources (e.g. https://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/02/education/edlife/stress-social-media-and-suicide-on-campus.html NYT and https://www.google.com/search?q=suicide+academic+pressure&rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS689US689&oq=suicide+academic+pressure&aqs=chrome..69i57.7063j0j1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 others), but they are not deployed here.  Also, as others have noted above, this is an extremely delicate topic (especially with regard to the risk  - which is very real - of contagion through publicity (see Suicide#Media) and there is a huge risk of  issues with respect to recently deceased people, as well as abuse of sources -- all of which is described above already.  It might be possible to create a decent article but this is not it, and it needs

Comment: While this list is not the best way to present the topic, neither of the reasons given by the nominator stand up to scrutiny. The list is not indiscriminate, but clearly defined as suicides attributed to academic pressure, and the topic is clearly notable in Asia (as the sourcing provided in the article demonstrates). The geographical coverage is not problematic, since the issue itself is notable in a particular geographical area. Several arguments have been made that this is original research, but these have already been shown not to stand up.  specifies that "The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been. Because the group or set is notable, the individual items in the list do not need to be independently notable", which means the bar to pass is whether reliable sources discuss suicides attributed to academic pressure as a set. This they do, as witness M. T.Y. Lee, B. P. Wong, B. W.-Y. Chow, C.

Comment: Weak Delete''', but taking issue with some of the reasons for deletion above, and with a suggestion) - A basic search for sources (and glance at those included) shows that there many instances that can be verified (including from e.g. http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/11-year-old-boy-s-suicide-due-to-exam-and-parental-stress-state/3225314.html coroners). Verification is not enough, but it instantly eliminates all of the claims that this is original research. Likewise, suicide due to academic pressures is absolutely a notable subject. In the US/UK it may not stand out among other causes of suicide, but in places like South Korea, Singapore, and Hong Kong, it's at worst an epidemic or at best a moral panic (worst/best admittedly unnecessarily loaded terms here). Either way, it's the subject of popular and scholarly articles alike. I'm not surprised that the user(s) who started the list focused on Singapore, as that's one of the places that struggles with the problem -- and being incomplete is not a reason for deletion, so I don't know why that's even coming up here. All this said, obviously I haven't jumped in with a keep !vote (and not just because the current is pushing too hard the other way). While there are a ton of sources on the ''subject'', I'm not seeing sufficient published ''lists'' of examples to justify keeping per . The sources and the best-covered examples, however, would be useful seed material in an article along the lines of academic pressures and suicide (perhaps focusing on a particular country/region). I'd encourage {{u|Jfanderson68}} to explore such a project. I started to create a stub just now myself, but didn't feel like I have the time to write something that would do justice to the serious subject. If Jfanderson68 (who created this list) is interested, however, and wants help, I hope he/she will

Comment: complete   towards Singapore. It's even more pointless listing non notable cases unless you're going to include reported cases from all around the world not just Asia. Also potential WP:OR unless a coroner has ruled clearly academic pressure
