Speedy deletion nomination of Elaine Ng (consultant)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Elaine Ng (consultant), requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
- It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

About speedy deletion
Hi Justexamples! Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. I tagged that article for speedy deletion. Let me explain a bit about how we decide to create article. For us to have an article first we need to show that the article subject is notable (See WP:N). For this we need significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources which are independent of the subject. For example, a Straits Times or WSJ article would work but a link to a profile page on the company website wouldn't as it is not independent. The coverage has to be about the subject - it needs to address it directly and in detail. And we need multiple such sources to show notability. Here are some examples:
- [1],[2],[3],[4] This is trivial coverage and they are essentially just quotes by the subject. We need significant coverage about the person.
- [5] This is significant coverage but by the subject's company - not independent of the subject.
What we require is significant coverage in "multiple reliable secondary sources independent of the subject". The article subject doesn't seem notable for a Wikipedia article at this time. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 03:37, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
Hi Lemongirl, thank you for pointing out that quotes are not considered significant coverage about a person. However, there are other sources such as the University of Cambridge and that talked about Elaine.[1] There are many direct reliable secondary source, among the many indirect ones, mostly depicting the acquiring of her company, HRBS with her mentioned as the owner of HRBS. These are two examples of the many sources you may find online. [2][3] In fact, Marsh & McLennan has recognised that the purchase of HRBS "14-year old company will spread Mercer's compensation and benefits expertise in the Asian market. Could you please reconsider your assessment? justexamples 04:43, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
