fails WP:BIO and WP:AUTHOR, simply being an author does not grant automatic notability. gnews search turns up other Christopher Chengs. this search mainly is directory listing rather than independent coverage of Cheng as an author. LibStar (talk) 07:16, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Agree with above reasons. Though seems an admirable person, no encyclopedic notability established. Delete with no bias to re-create in future should further notability be asserted. --Whoosit (talk) 23:58, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, he might be a very good author, but I haven't been able to find any third-party coverage of him (as opposed to his books). Christopher Cheng and Chris Cheng seem to both be pretty common names though, so it's possible I might have overlooked something relevant in the sea of results a search on either of those two names gives.
