Originally tagged for speedy deletion as a biography that did not assert the notability of the person, but I did not feel it met that criterion. There is at least some half-way plausible assertion of notability, and from a quick Google search it appears that at least some of it might be supportable with sources. I'm not really able to judge the reliability of the sources I can find, and I have no particular interest in this subject matter, so my own opinion here is neutral.

Weak keep - Did a bit of research. Seems Ruhil Amani is a established singer and actress, who has been active in Malaysia since 1988 and has 4 gold and 1 platinum album. If we keep, we need to find verifiable sources which satisfy WP:BIO, WP:MUSIC and WP:ENTERTAINER. The article is stonkingly badly written. Its needs a complete rewrite, wikipfied and linked. scope_creep (talk) 22:33, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
