A doctor of questionable import. Google hits suggest this guy is real and perhaps has some notability, but the primary editor is Shuanggen Jin (talk · contribs), who has done some at times nonsensical changes and keeps removing the maintenance tags. Since I'm not familiar with the subject, I keep my vote at Neutral and ask WP's experts to help out. JuJube (talk) 04:50, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. His edit history is hilarious. I love how at one point he had a userbox labeled "Global Positioning Satellite" with a picture of a bunch of satellites on his Wikipedia article (found here). I really don't know if we should keep or delete this, so I'll say neutral. Hazillow (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 05:36, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment According to wanfangdata.com.cn, he has published 28 papers in Chinese, of which the most popular was cited 8 times [1]. No idea what would pass WP:PROF for his field. cab (talk) 05:38, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Delete, would not appear to meet any of the WP:PROF notability criteria. He might just meet #4 due to Chinese-language materials that I cannot read, and if someone in the know can assert that this is true, I'll cheerfully change my vote.

- Unfortunately, no any Chinese-language materials to speak of, aside from the papers I mentioned above; his name only gets 49 non-duplicate GHits in Chinese [2], all of which are just stuff he's written or unrelated people by the same name, with no reliable, independent sources. cab (talk) 07:29, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete The wiki entry was started by user:Shuanggen Jin, so he was creating a page for himself. What happened to the "Please don't create pages about yourself or your friends, pages that advertise, or personal essays." rule?! So it's OK for me to create 1 wiki entry about myself now?!

- If a notable person creates an entry about themselves, we clean it up instead of deleting it. This is in line with the general deletion policy, which states that if an article has surmountable problems, we edit it instead of deleting it. WP:COI in and of itself is not a deletion reason. The point of this discussion is to determine whether he passes WP:PROF or some other biographical notability criterion. cab (talk) 22:52, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi Cab. Those guidelines don't apply here. This is the first and only entry that he created, this is why he registered wiki and becoming a member. He did all these for this entry, aka an ad for himself. I have done many searches on baidu with his Chinese name. Nothing notable popped up. Heck, I work for a Fortune 100 Company in the field of GPS also, you guys might wanna watch out for my wiki entry very soon! Besides, I couldn't find any information about this "Earthquake Disaster Reduction project, China Earthquake Administration" in either language. Speedy Delete would be even better.

- Delete any professor would have the same level of distinctions. Most professors are required to have published work, some sort of leadership, etc.. ALTON .ıl 01:43, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Cab's guidelines are correct. COI is irrelevant, if he is really notable. It depends of course, on how much they publish. But relying on what cab reported, the number of Chinese-language papers is significant, the number of citations quite the opposite, but this is not really my subject, and it might be a small specialty., I cant find any in English. Keeping to what I can see, it would be quite unusual for a scientist who received a PhD just 4 or 5 years ago to be already notable. DGG (talk) 05:31, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete notabity not proved. Could be suitable for Chinese Wiki. Xxanthippe (talk) 09:37, 1 March 2008 (UTC).[reply]
