Expanding the section on Singapore

I saw that this section needed expansion. Should we focus on describing the past controversy/disputes or should we focus the most recent examples of nepotism?

Expanding the section on Singapore

I saw that this section needed expansion. Should we continue to talk about the past controversy/disputes or should we focus on the most recent examples of nepotism in Singapore? Trlc525 (talk) 15:33, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Redundancy removal?

I am not 100% comfortable playing around with references, so would someone more familiar with them please review this, and consider changing §1¶1 to something akin to the following:

Borrowed from the French term 'Nepotisme', which in turn was derived from Italian 'Nepotismo'[1][2] and the Latin 'nepōs' (nephews)[3], nepotism refers to the practice of popes appointing relatives during the Middle Age and Renaissance.[4]
