- Weak delete. Interesting topic, but trying to rescue this by adding one footnote to a cite of dubious reliablity where we have two paragraphs of text that look like advertising ( [1]) is hardly useful. This seems like an interesting and plausibly notable topic, but the current exceution is terrible, and there is even no interwiki to Chinese article to judge if this is better covered there. The article is also linked from the body of only one article (unreferenced) and as a see also. Sigh. Ping me if better sources are found - right now it is hard to be sure the topic is notable, and certainly WP:OR is a major issue. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:39, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep because the sources listed by Jumpytoo and
