It is unclear, from both this article and Shao Wei (American poet), whether the two people are the same one. But regardless, this article should be deleted, I think, because it doesn't show notability and doesn't give enough information to show notability — indeed, again, even whether the two are the same person. Delete. --Nlu (talk) 13:14, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. They read like they are probably the same person, but as you say the (writer) article really contains nothing. Incidentally Shao Wei is a redirect to (military rank).TheLongTone (talk) 22:33, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete. It is the same Shao Wei as the poet (see http://www.dailymotion.com/Wei_Shao#video=xogmgf, Shao Wei author of "Dragon's Teeth" identifies herself as the writer of "Homeland"), and the only link given is for a writer's agency that no longer lists her as one of their writers. It looks as if Shao Wei (Writer) article was taken from a Peony Literary Agency webpage that was years old (she's no longer a grad student), and has since been taken down. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.99.3.139 (talk • contribs) 15:24, 30 September 2012
