Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yap Kwong Weng (2nd nomination)
A substantially promotional article, without evidence of satisfying Wikipedia's notability guidelines. Some of the "keep" arguments are rather vague rambling discourses where it is difficult to make out what reason is being advanced for keeping the article, beyond "I think he's a noble and important person", and where the reasons given are clear, they do not relate to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. For example, such issues as "making a difference to the world through his contribution for his nation", "made significant contributions to the Armed Forces", being deserving of "respect" and being "a young global leader" do not feature at all in Wikipedia's notability guidelines. We can, of course, ignore the ad hominem attacks on the nominator.

(Although it is not part of the reason for deletion, it is perhaps worth noting that the arguments for keeping the article are from one account and two IP addresses all of whose recent editing has related to this article, and some of the comments from the three are rather similar, which is similar to what happened in the last deletion discussion for this article.)
