Fails WP:SIGCOV, WP:BIO. Unable to verify awards. scope_creep^Talk 07:30, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly, a simple google search of this individual would show this person's notability and coverage. In addition to that of all the information stated within the article are sourced, as no personal research or information were even written into the article. In context to the awards, they have been sourced by several websites and books of publishers from varying organisations, educational institutions and books. He might not be a significantly importantly person internationally, but his influence in a regional level (Brunei and ASEAN) has been shown repeatedly with his meetings with notable people and organisations.

Hi @Pangalau: Could you please post the best three references per WP:THREE which by consensus is best practice, so I can examine them to see if he is notable. Thanks. scope_creep^Talk 12:42, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Other folk will have a look at the article and references you post here to support its notability, as well. Hope that helps. scope_creep^Talk 12:55, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yeap, this is very much appreciated, thanks Pangalau (talk) 13:03, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The first article listed in the three above is tangentially about this individual, talking about a power struggle. The other two are speaker bios, so non-useful. Oaktree b (talk) 14:22, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: Not enough coverage to warrant an article. The awards given seem notable, but I can't find sourcing to use. Oaktree b (talk) 14:24, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, seems like there are primary sources to establish that he's a mover and a shaker, however where are the secondary sources? Nil, nada, zilch. That's at least what my searches told me, please correct me if I'm wrong. TarnishedPath^talk 11:51, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Possibly the best solution here is to move some of the useful informations (power struggle) to the established pages of Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah and Prince Mohamed Bolkiah. Thoughts? Pangalau (talk) 14:06, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  You'd still need sufficient secondary sources to justify the material being in those other articles in the first place. TarnishedPath^talk 09:39, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
