Revision as of 04:13, 14 March 2009
Deletion was done even with notability proven; deletion request by chase78 appears personally motivated. Ncknight (talk) 04:08, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
The article written was backed by credible secondary references, both online and in print meeting Wikipedia:Notability_(people) with regards to published secondary source data such as newspapers like Today, The Strait Times and Bernama repeatedly on the areas of enterprise.
Meeting the criteria of topic specific relevance (enterprise and venture capital) is Nicholas Chan receipt of entrepreneurship related awards and nominations such as the Spirit of Enterprise 2005 (with reference) and the Fortis Heros 2008 on the area of Social Entrepreneurship in Singapore (not keyed in yet, but with PDF article on Fortis website) further reinforces the article.
New substantiation of the serial entrepreneur element via print articles, radio interviews and TV interviews has been discovered by me last week (8 new secondary sources) and 2 new print articles with reference to the venture capital aspects have been documented. Request undeletion of article so that I may be able to incorporate said secondary references.
Finally, deletion request by chase78 appears personally motivated based on the mannerism of the request made particularly on issues like Army which was barely 1 sentence. Significance is because the result was the formation of 2 businesses with his former army friends which are referenced in secondary sources (company in point is Who Works Around You, secondary sources of which I just discovered this week and compiled but have not entered into Wikipedia) and relevant to the entrepreneurial aspect. Further comment on "lot more Singaporeans with much more notable achievements" has nothing to do with the lack of notability of article. Request review on personal motivation of chase78 against this article.
Further review of the article shows article vandalism as quoted:
Nicholas Chan was born on November 14, 1978 in Singapore then he moved to arizona and attended desert mountain high school where he was treated as an outkast because he looked different and couldn't speak english to Francis Chan and Susanna Kuan.
