This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to China. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting.

You can help maintain the list on this page:

  • To add a new AfD discussion (once it has already been opened on WP:AFD):
  • Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  • You can also tag the AfD by adding
{{subst:delsort|China}}<small>—~~~~</small>
to it, which will inform users that it has been listed here.
  • Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
  • You can also add and remove links to other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to China.

Please note that adding an AfD to, or removing it from, this page does not add it to, or remove it from, the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page, before adding it to this page.

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to Asia

[edit] China

[edit] Shao Yu

Shao Yu (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View AfD)
(Find sources: "Shao Yu"search, news, books, scholar, images )

New user started the article without citing references, probably an unreferenced article and fails WP:N. ApprenticeFan talk contribs 13:08, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

I've already added references and plan to add more. PLease don't delete492star (talk) 21:42, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

  • Delete This isn't a game of find a mention on the web somewhere, there has got to be a demonstration of significant, non-trivial coverage in 3rd party reliable sources. That's not here. RadioFan (talk) 22:12, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
  • If u looked at the external links section, and read more patiently downwards, you'd see Shao Yu's full biography. AND THAT is a non-trivial coverage by the CHINESE people. 492star (talk) 01:25, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
  • so is it okay now?492star (talk) 19:42, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
It's not clear if this is a reliable source or not. Assuming it is, this article still does not meet guidelines for inclusion as there is not significant coverage in 3rd party sources. --RadioFan (talk) 20:57, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

Is there a simpler way?492star (talk) 05:01, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Alright, I provided a reference that is a translation of the entire first season synopsis. Note: The synopsis was made by the Chinese creators. It provides SIGNIFICANT coverage. Is it okay now? Also, the name in the translation for Shao Yu is Siu Yu492star (talk) 05:04, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

  • A translation of an online synopsis does not count toward meeting the requirement in WP:N, as far as I can tell. Given that the character exists, and that Wikipedia wouldn't be Wikipedia if it didn't have at least a redirect for every minor fictional character, I'll go with merge (to Qin's Moon). Drmies (talk) 05:10, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Keep, but... He appears to be one of the main characters in an animated series. However, rather than have his own article, this should be merged into List of Qin's Moon characters or directly into Qin's Moon. —C.Fred (talk) 05:15, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Tenfu Tea College

Tenfu Tea College (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View AfD)
(Find sources: "Tenfu Tea College"search, news, books, scholar, images )

Advertising. No indication of significance or notability. The college's website doesn't even appear to have an English language information page. Exploding Boy (talk) 16:56, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

  • Speedy delete under criterion G11. Dalekusa (talk) 20:53, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Comment. I must take issue with the nomination rationale. Why should we expect a Chinese college to have a web page in any non-Chinese language? Should be delete articles about colleges in anglophone countries that don't have web pages in Chinese? The only bits of the artice that could be said to be promotional were the word "devoted" and the contact information, which I have removed. Here's one reliable source in English - let's see if anyone can find any more in Chinese. Phil Bridger (talk) 18:37, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of China-related deletion discussions. Phil Bridger (talk) 18:37, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
That was only one part of it, and the reason is that the English Wikipedia prefers English-language sources. Tenfu Tea College gets only about 1000 Google hits, and is apparently a training arm of Tenfu Tea Company (according to the article you found), which we don't have an article on. I don't see much in the way of notability so far. Exploding Boy (talk) 18:59, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
The language of sources has no bearing on the suitability of a subject for an article. The preference for English language sources is part of verifiability policy which doesn't apply "where an English equivalent is not available". Phil Bridger (talk) 19:50, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Keep. There's another story in English here, a different romanization turns up a few local Xiamen sources in English, and there are plenty of gnews and general google hits in Chinese. This story in particular, saying it's the first college in China to be allowed to recruit students directly from private colleges in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, suggests some wider importance in recent East Asian educational history. If all high schools are notable, this certainly is. --Paularblaster (talk) 14:08, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete This is clearly an ad. The creator User:Icetea8 is a teacher/trainer at the school! (WP:CONFLICT) And 99% of Paularblaster's Chinese Google Hits are ads. According to those Chinese Information, the school is indeed founded by the company and the "students" can go to "intern" at the company and receive job placements after they "graduate." Per WP:ADVERT & WP:CONFLICT, delete. TheAsianGURU (talk) 18:59, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
Even with 99% of hits being advertising, there seems to me to be enough grain in amongst the chaff to justify a stub on this institution - or have I missed something about the COI policy that would override the existence of RS? (That's a serious question - I'm no policy expert; if there is I'll withdraw my "keep") --Paularblaster (talk) 10:34, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
If 99% of hits are advertising, that certainly suggests that the place isn't notable, and that there aren't sufficient reliable sources about it to support an article, especially given we don't have an article about the parent company. Exploding Boy (talk) 17:23, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
A reliable source is a reliable source, regardless of however many unreliable sources there might be about. On a point of information, we do have an article on the parent company, at Ten Ren Tea. It's pretty major. --Paularblaster (talk) 18:06, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Keep, per Paularblaster's discovery of more reliable sources. If this is "clearly an ad" then where are the invitations for students to apply to this college, or the claims that this is better than any competitor? What this "clearly" is is a factual description of the subject. What on earth does the claim that students can go to intern at the company and receive job placements after they graduate have to do with the subject's suitability for an encyclopedia article? Just putting words in scare quotes doesn't demonstrate anything. Surely all colleges, and in particular vocational colleges, help students with job placements, but how does that make them unnotable? And, just for completeness, Paularblaster is perfectly correct that it doesn't matter how many advertising sources can be found as long as enough non-advertising sources exist to pass the notability guidelines. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:01, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
Funny, then please explain to me since when ad hits = WP:N? Since when WP:CONFLICT can be ignored?! I standby my statement & you don't need to be an article critic here, picking out how I write my stuff. In fact, I don't care what you think. Let's hear what you say about those 2 points first. TheAsianGURU (talk) 23:56, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
I didn't say that ad hits = WP:N. I said that we should ignore the ad hits when evaluating notability, and base our judgement on the non-advertising sources. As regards WP:CONFLICT, it is not by itself a reason for deleting articles written by people with a conflict of interest, but a reason to edit articles to ensure neutrality, as I have done with this article. Phil Bridger (talk) 00:46, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Hong Kong Cantonese Slang

Hong Kong Cantonese Slang (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View AfD)
(Find sources: "Hong Kong Cantonese Slang"search, news, books, scholar, images )

Unencyclopedic opinion piece, unsourced. Eeekster (talk) 09:51, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

  • Delete - unreferenced essay per WP:NOR, though it would be good to see a real article on this subject. MuffledThud (talk) 10:39, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
  • This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 15:59, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete Blatant WP:OR violation. Absolutely no reason to keep this on WP. Angryapathy (talk) 17:22, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete per G3 It should also be noted that the creator of this article has been blocked indefinately for vandalism, and the only contributions to WP were on this article. Speedy delete criteria G3 met. Angryapathy (talk) 17:25, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete per MuffledThud. No prejudice to recreation at a proper title based on real sources. cab (talk) 00:35, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete agree that this is opinion piece, needs significant improvement 137.73.68.56 (talk) 12:26, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete in present form. May be basis for a serious article, and I have a hunch there probably is. But this version is unsalvageable. --JohnnyB256 (talk) 21:54, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete this is a meaningless stub. Tavatar (talk) 03:46, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
