Delete. Nonnotable criminal. Wile E. Heresiarch 05:54, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Delete, non notable criminal - only 33 Google hits. Megan1967 06:30, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Very very weak keep. It's unusual for someone in treasury to steal 10 million pounds, so there might be something to be said there. --JuntungWu 12:23, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Keep, albeit weakly. Sheer number of Google hits is not always the most useful reference; his theft was reported by New York Times, The BBC, The Times of London and The Telegraph; international media coverage is, by definition, a suggestion of notability. Also, note that his name was sometimes reported as Wing Kit Chu, which turns up an additional 164 Google hits.

- D'oh--yes, it was from me. Sorry, forgot to sign it.--Jacobw 17:31, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
weak Keep. (vote change) I'm persuaded by the international (as opposed to merely local) media coverage. Johntex 21:45, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Keep, although some information on how he was in a position to steal that money would be nice. --nixie 01:18, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Delete, not really much on Google. JamesBurns 10:54, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)
