Talk:Lee Hsien Loong

Not a Controversy

The following section is not controversial at all, simply speculationa and comments by Goh and public. Nor arguments between Goh Chok tong and Lee hsien loong as the text make it out to be. Discuss here if you don't agree.111.65.39.212 (talk) 15:02, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

Not Major controversies

• Ngerng was found guilty of suggesting that PM Lee criminally misappropriated people's CPF monies. Judge says there's no triable defence.

• Raising of utility prices is never popular, and negative reactions are common, but the "protest" in Hong Lim park was attended by only 100 people - way over-stated and hardly comparable to tens of thousands elsewhere. 111.65.36.194 (talk) 16:20, 12 June 2019 (UTC)

Messed up archiving

There was a messy manual archiving done by an IP [1], [2], [3]. The archive 1 is messed up (content was created, but not removed from this page). I have reverted all of it and I will add a bot here to do the archiving, which is cleaner.--DreamLinker (talk) 16:40, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

 Done--DreamLinker (talk) 17:13, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

I am using the archival tool to archive the threads you have fixed. It should be clean. robertsky (talk) 18:10, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

World statesman award and other edits

A mention of the World Stateman Award was added to the article [4]. I removed it [5], thought it seems the IP wants to add it back [6], [7]. The reason I removed it was because it doesn't seem to be a notable award and Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. These kind of awards by small private societies are quite commonly awarded to political leaders/head of states. The award seems to have been reported in Singapore-based media, but I cannot find reports in other media, which is surprising since the awarding foundation is based in New York. It is also out of place in the section named 13th Cabinet (if at all it is added, it should be added to the Honours section). What do others think?--DreamLinker (talk) 13:53, 9 October 2019 (UTC)

Agreed robertsky (talk)

Agreed with which part? If it is about adding to Honours section, then he should have moved what the other editor inserted or discussed first, instead of edit-warring. 111.65.60.237 (talk) 00:58, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

yes, about moving to the honour section. As for the behaviour in both parties, it would have been better if the IP editor instead of commenting to raise to WP:ANI but aiming to resolve in the Talk page here, and DreamLinker communicated the alternative location idea earlier if he had the idea earlier. That been said, the IP editor has revert the edit while I am typing this. I guess someone has to move it then (I am mobile at the moment, and am not comfortable editing articles on mobile) robertsky (talk) 01:21, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

Ok, I have moved it as you were typing. I was going by the books. Good day. 111.65.60.237 (talk)

Even if he gets an award from a local entity or alumni and only reported by local press, it would be enough. Since you are from India, you might want to complain to "Connectedtoindia.com" for covering this news.
