Lift Auntie

I don't see the value in listing an individual online video unless it has particular global interest dvc214 13:29, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This article provide factual basis for an incident which is off interest to netizen, it collates with the increasing trend of Singaporean seeking alternative source of information from the internet, instead of relying on a government controlled mainstream media, which is often biased and selective in its reporting. Hence it should not be deleted.— Preceding unsigned comment added by SixSigma (talk • contribs)

Delete Not notable. Wikipedia is not Youtube / Google Video. Bwithh 14:53, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Non-encyclopedic content. A fracas between non-notable people captured on Handycam. Youtube is the better location. (aeropagitica) (talk) 15:04, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What about the hong kong bus uncle then? Why is it ok to have it online but not this?— Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.50.80.34 (talk • contribs)

Comment. Bus Uncle hasn't been nominated for deletion. Yet. (The article's only a week old.) Fan1967 17:36, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Whoops, my mistake. It was nominated and kept. - Fan1967 17:42, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I would personally vote to delete Bus Uncle, but its more notable than Lift Auntie due to the discussion in the media and its impact on HK popular culture Bwithh 00:00, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

But this might be also become part of the news in the future. give it some time.

Please do not delete it. It is a very interesting analysis of the effect of stress in Singapore. I am going to write a thesis about this incident in my project. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.156.6.54 (talk • contribs)
We should not turn our backs on this. Perhaps even reclassify them under "Stressed out Singaporeans". Singapore can't be as clean and white as what the world thinks it to be.

There are many of such cases (cat fights, verbal abuses, vandalism) in Singapore since independence. What's different now is that these incidence can now be filmed and publish by anyone.

We can't have a situation where every viral video clip gets it's own entry in Wikipedia, can you please suggest a wider category to merge this into, and perhaps Bus Uncle as well? dvc214 08:38, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
