I completely fail to see what's so magic in "encyclopedias"
that they
must not list bloggers or actresses. Specially when they are not bound
by the limits of the paper.
I'm completely uninterested by Ms. Chen Liping or Mr. Xiaxue but the
fact they have an article does not change anything for the articles
which do interest me. So, they are not a problem.
If articles about Singaporeans are going to interest Singaporeans who
can complain?
Let's go back to the original issue:
"non-notability" is used way too
much and it is strongly biased towards a particular country (nobody
suggested to delete [[en:Julia Stiles]] or [[en:Elizabeth
Mitchell]]). And there was never strong reasons given *why* useless
articles should be deleted. Because they take hard disk space?
Many deletion
debates use up far more disk space than the subject
articles themselves.
