Talk:River Valley High School attack

Murder allegation

@NelsonLee20042020: Hello Nelson. I would like to draw your attention to WP:BLPCRIME, in particular the sentence "editors must seriously consider not including material—in any article—that suggests the person has committed, or is accused of having committed, a crime, unless a conviction has been secured." At present, the 16 year old remains innocent until he is sentenced. Please stop adding this page or linking to pages which may give any indication that he has committed a crime.

It's alright. Do ping me if you have anything you wish to clear up. I enjoy reading your articles on the crimes of Singapore very much. Seloloving (talk) 06:01, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

Excellent work that I'm seeing from you, Nelson! Several of your articles have GA or even FA potential—just have to tighten the prose a little. Keep it up Kingoflettuce (talk) 12:12, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

Is Wikipedia bound by Singaporean law? When the boy is convicted, can his name be published here? I, certainly, do not want to publish it now. Charliestalnaker (talk) 21:35, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia is bound by United States law. But it does not matter, his name will never be published by the Singapore courts/media. Any other hearsay or rumours is not usable unless you have reliable sources. The identity of the teenage killer in The Anthony Ler case 20 years ago remains secret, and it's likely this case will go that way in ensuring both the victim's and suspect's identity are protected.
