Ah Kong[edit]

No whatsoever references. The name of the "gang" is too common in a quick search on google. Generally hard to identify. Dengero (talk) 02:09, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. "Ah Kong" is certainly a generic phrase, but it was also the name of a powerful Chinese drug-smuggling Triad in the 1980s. A google book search turns up four valid hits, and there's a few more RS out there; I'll try to add a couple of refs to the article. Baileypalblue (talk) 19:57, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Its notable, but needs references Ijanderson (talk) 22:47, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Very surprised that this has been marked for deletion. It is just like marking 'Mafia' for deletion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 218.186.12.206 (talk) 16:55, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Except the Mafia has references, this one doesn't. No proof they even exist. Dengero (talk) 02:11, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • Need to have some knowledge of Asian triads besides those portrayed in the movies and tv serials. Other Asian triads include 14k, Sun Yee On, Big Circle Gang, Bamboo United Gang. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 218.186.12.206 (talk) 03:13, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
        • There are references for triads also. You still haven't proven this gang even exists. Dengero (talk) 04:16, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
          • Check again. I still have a lot of materials intended for it, but I did not have the time to do so. So I just wrote a short summary about it, hoping that others who come across it will expand on it. If you do a Yahoo Search using the keywords "ah kong" and "amsterdam", it return 65 links. As you are a regular contributor, I would have expected you to add the links as references, if you have bother to do a search. But it's ok, I still take it as you have good intentions to make Wikipaedia a better place. Cheers!
