Ckh3111 removed the Prod notice without giving an explanation. We don't need a separate article just to detail a "cheating incident" between two celebrities. Delete per WP:NOTGOSSIP, WP:NOTSCANDAL Hkfilmbuff (talk) 13:13, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, WP:NOTGOSSIP and WP:NOTSCANDAL are not the excuses to delete the article. It is because the incident is also reported in worldwide media. There are many web sources to show the truth of the incident. The media also classifies this as "scandal" because it involved cheating between a famous married single and an engaged artiste in Hong Kong. Ckh3111 (talk) 13:53, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

By your "logic" (or lack thereof) Jeff Bezos's "cheating scandal", the scandal which he detailed himself, was on the front page of the New York Times, and is causing the sale and possible bankruptcy of the National Enquirer would need an article too. Clearly that's not the case. Trillfendi (talk) 20:49, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

So why John Edwards extramarital affair and Eliot Spitzer prostitution scandal have articles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.149.246.163 (talk) 23:22, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Since you ask, it is because the ramifications of the incidents (persistent conspiracy between elected officials, baby born, public officer lying about paternity) are of an order of magnitude greater than a couple of "celebrities" having a brief drunken grapple in a taxi.

Delete or perhaps Merge. Events like this are not notable enough to deserve their own article, especially when both subjects have articles of their own. Skirts⁸⁹ 14:32, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete WP:NOTNEWS. Classic low-level celeb gossip that certainly does not need an article about it. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 14:51, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:NOTNEWS, WP:NOTGOSSIP, WP:NOTSCANDAL, and WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. No foreseeable WP:LASTING effect other than broken relationships and some opportunistic memes. _dk (talk) 17:48, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep, unless there's a suitable article on the privacy issue to merge to. We have a related article: Legality of recording by civilians. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:30, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Well there you go, you have answered your own proviso - we do have a suitable article on the privacy issue. Feel free to add the relevant details of this incident to that article, and support the deletion of this cheap gossip-mongering article. Captainllama (talk) 01:06, 27 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
