- Weak Delete - A targeted Google search (beyond the searches that come up automatically upon clicking the links on this page) reveals a few pieces of news coverage and a few album reviews in English-language Asian sources, but I don't know enough about that media market to know if the publications are reliable. (For example: album review and tour article.) Perhaps someone can argue that these sources confer notability. But the singer apparently has not been noticed outside of Asia, so maybe he would be a better fit for Chinese Wikipedia. DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 00:03, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - Blogs and wiki pages (or cached copies of them) are not reliable, but newspaper articles are, even if they are only partially online. I suggest people who know him better try to expand the article with reliable and verifiable sources before this is closed. I only nominated it here because it was tagged earlier for CSD A7 but contested. Monni (talk) 21:25, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete A comment from 2002 and a contract that was not continued, perhaps he wanted to become notable but I don't see sufficient level of reporting or album releases or actual concerts to assert musical notability. Off2riorob (talk) 18:25, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
