The result was keep. Although I've 'kept' the article, I have no prejudice towards an early AfD in case the sources don't match up to expectations with respect to notability. Wifione Message 11:47, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable author lacking GHits and GNEWS of substance. Article indicates the author won awards for the novels; however, there is no support for the awards. The books appear to be self-published. Appears to fail WP:AUTHOR. reddogsix (talk) 07:16, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment I don't think that this name (王盛弘, please do not confuse with professor Wang Sheng Hong [1]) is totally unknown in Taiwan/China [2], [3], [4], but the article needs an attention of an editor fluent in Chinese, which I'm not :( --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 20:54, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete as lacking in-depth coverage in reliable, independent third-party sources. Should such sources be integrated into the article feel free to leave a note on my talk page and I'll take another look. Stuartyeates (talk) 19:41, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak Keep – per coverage in RS that covers the topic in detail (read via a translator from Traditional Han Chinese to English language):
- [8], from official website of China Times
- [9], from China Internet Information Center.
- Keep Coverage has been found. If any of the awards are notable, perhaps someone can find an official website listing who won them on what years. Dream Focus 07:13, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep With references found, this article can be improved and kept. I added templates to the talk page, but the listas may not be correct for a Chinese name. --DThomsen8 (talk) 14:37, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
