[edit] Notable Singaporean?

How does one define "Notable" Singaporean here? I see politicians and businessmen who made significant impact, and I see singers and actress who are just that, singers and actress. There are "tons" of such singers, actress and actors in Singapore, how does one decide which to include in the list of "notable" Singaporean? I am inclined to remove a few.

If the subject in question is relatively well known internationally, it is most probably notable by Wikipedia standards. --Siva1979Talk to me 05:45, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

How can Agu Casmir be a notable Singaporean, and Indra Sahdan not be? Casmir is not a real Singaporean and Indra is not just one of our best players but an excellent police officer as well.

As is in much of wikipedia, this article is a work in progress and is not exhaustive. You are most welcome to add another deserving entry here.--Huaiwei 14:33, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Overlinking

This page is severely overlinked. In List of people by name, there is only one link in each entry, which is to the people themselves. Should we follow this and remove all the links except the links to the person? Thaurisil 08:24, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion?

This is an open-ended, single-criterion list and would be deleted under this proposal: User:Sidatio/Proto_WP:LIST#Criteria_for_inclusion_in_lists. Kappa 05:48, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sortability

I would like to be able to sort this list by date of birth and occupation, any chance that could be implemented? Kappa 05:50, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
