Sources appear to be primarily press releases or to mention Tang in passing. He does not appear to be notable separately from his company, if his company is notable. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 05:39, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment: he does have publications to his name[1] and I see him mentioned in a number of news articles. He's difficult to dismiss as non-notable. Praemonitus (talk) 22:49, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
- Many people have published things, which is why having publications is not a measure of notability. He needs to be more than "mentioned", and in articles that aren't just reprinted press releases. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 16:35, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. I think he is very notable, but not by wikipedia standards, I hope someone finds some references, but I can not. (Dushan Jugum (talk) 22:20, 4 March 2019 (UTC)).
