This article is like an advertising piece created for himself. DH85868993 ( talk) on behalf of Littlepis ( talk) - Littlepis originally created an AfD; DH85868993 has re-created it as an MfD. 03:10, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
keep - user space; a valid sandbox for a bio, reasonably referenced to survive Speedy and Prod. You better advise him about wikipedia rules of bio writing.Dzied Bulbash ( talk) 03:44, 6 April 2010 (UTC)- delete - abandoned sandbox, unless someone endeavors to revive it (looks plausible at the first glance). Dzied Bulbash ( talk) 03:46, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
- Comment it seems to be the user himself, so just move it to his user page, which is redlinked. 65.94.253.16 ( talk) 05:05, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
- Delete im sure that rules on userpages, of all sorts, bar the creation of pseudo articles intended to promote nonnotable subjects that would not survive afd. this is a typical example. sandboxes, talk pages, etc cannot be used as a free webhosting service. unless someone wants to see if this person really is notable, it needs to go. Oh, to be fair, i DID just search. he is a nonnotable motivational speaker whose book is not on amazon.com. lots of blog hits, etc. Mercurywoodrose ( talk) 06:16, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
- Delete as a close paraphrase of http://www.ernie-chen.com/entrepreneurial.htm and an unduly promotional piece. The lack of edits between September 2009 and April 2010 suggest that it is an abandoned sandbox, and in its current state it is not suitable for main article space per WP:GNG, WP:BIO, and WP:Spam.

- Delete as promotion by a non-contributor. Such a page should be blanked on sight. Please notify the user of this MfD. -- SmokeyJoe ( talk) 21:48, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
- Is the MfD notice at the top of the user's talk page not sufficient? (Please note this is a serious question, I'm not being sarcastic)

- Yes, you are right. If he logs in, he'll get the orange bar due to the mfd notice. -- SmokeyJoe ( talk) 23:09, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
- Normally I object to deletion of user talk pages, but in this case there doesn't seem to have been any use of the talk page by other users to communicate with this user. Furthermore, the user has no contributions other than edits to this page and has not edited at all for seven months. Therefore, delete as self-promotion by a noncontributor, unless the user comes back and participates in this MfD to request that it be kept. If the user does come back, move to User:Ernie Chen Kok Weng instead, since this content, if appropriate at all, should have gone on a user page rather than a user talk page. -- Metropolitan90 (talk) 16:27, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
- Delete Strongly conflicts with WP:USERPAGE; seems to be using Wikipedia for some form of promotion. Johnuniq ( talk) 10:53, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
- Delete If this was an active editor, I'd say move it to a user subpage, but there's no evidence of any contributions to WP, nor evidence of recent activity, so it should go.-- SPhilbrick T 21:12, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
- Delete There is no reason for self-advert bios to be on user talk pages. Furthermore he's inactive so I strongly doubt that it will be the end of the world for him. So to speak, at least. ( Cheers! Want Anything? Chatty?)babylarm 21:49, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
