Comment At very first glance, I'm not able to easily find any coverage, but that's very possibly just due to my lack of proficiency in Chinese. One database says it's been completed, which would probably make it notable given its scale, but another says it's just a proposed project, which is what the page says. There's no page in Chinese (at least that's been linked through Wikidata), but there is an item on Baidu Baike, the de facto Wikipedia equivalent in China. Unfortunately, it doesn't have good references (and is a promotional mess), so there's not much to go off of (I'm certainly not suggesting we defer to Baidu Baike for determining notability). {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 19:23, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The building is in all likelihood incomplete, as there would probably be tons of press coverage available in Chinese and English sources had a skyscraper of this scale be constructed, and the Chinese media would probably not be humble about their accomplishments had this really been constructed. All I could find is information about its geographical location, and blatantly promotional blurbs from unreliable sources like this: 1, failing WP:GNG. And Sdkb, it seems World Trade Center GTC and Changchun World Trade Center are two different buildings: the former is a completed building at 176m, the latter is the subject of this article which is a skyscraper under construction. It seems the baidu article you cited is referring to the former building. Their names are also different in Chinese. (The former is 长春环球贸易中心, the latter is 长春世界贸易中心). -- Dps04 (talk) 05:45, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for now - if a better article can be sourced apart from a one-line stub, go ahead and recreate it, as the topic should be notable at some point if true. SportingFlyer T·C 09:52, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:TOOSOON. It appears to be proposed but not yet finished or built. Bearian (talk) 22:59, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - this fails WP:GNG and should be deleted but with no prejudice against it being recreated if and when it does get coverage of a sufficient standard Spiderone 11:27, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
