No real showing of notability. The two links given in the article are now both dead links. And article was written by a now banned user ( Arilang1234 ( talk · contribs)). Unless notability shown, delete. -- Nlu ( talk) 01:52, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
- Comment The Chinese article, while not without problems of its own, suggests notability ( cf. [1]). He's also quoted in western media, from the BBC to the New York Post. I am not sure whether this adds up to WP notability, but he appears to be a well-known academic and opinion-maker in China. 188.216.192.206 ( talk) 06:22, 2 June 2019 (UTC)

- Comment he does seem to have a bit of coverage in Western media, such as this article on The Irish Times about him winning a lawsuit against a Chinese internet company which tried to censor his website. Seems to be borderline notable, but this could go either way. - Zanhe ( talk) 07:49, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
