Honestly I don't know what to make of this article. It appears to be about a group of people, but the article is quite incomprehensible. Has no references either. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 15:05, 30 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - I'm not sure what to think about it either. The linked article on thwiki seems to be of some sort of road, probably not the group/gang in question. This page has been deleted several times (see deletion log), under CSD A7. I would say that still applies, but as the author has recreated the article 3 times, they may want to express their opinions here.

• Comment - They meant this? All I understand now is that, 'Vanz boy' is someone who participates in the illegal bike racing during night time in Bangkok. They are similar to Mat Rempit of Malaysia. Anupmehra -Let's talk! 15:48, 30 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

By mentioning 'Mat Rempit', I'm not intended to invoke OSE. I can't say anything for sure, but if there are not any extra-ordinary coverage on them, WP:RUNOFTHEMILL applies. Anupmehra -Let's talk! 15:57, 30 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: The current article is poorly written (it appears to be part of an undocumented school assignment), but the subject matter clearly warrants inclusion in Wikipedia. The Bangkok Post article linked by Anupmehra above provides a good overview. Numerous academic studies and articles on the topic have been published.[1][2][3][4] --Paul_012 (talk) 07:36, 1 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. This is clearly a machine translation from Thai. Whether it is possibly notable or not, it is not within the mandate of en.Wiki volunteers to even attempt to rescue something like this which in its present state cannot be deciphered into proper English (unless I could find the original Thai text it was stolen from).
