Comment If the claim to membership in the Chinese Academy of Engineering can be verified, this is a clear keep. I've not been able to do so - travelling right now, and somehow the web connections to the site are not going through. There is also the problem that the English version of the site is really primitive, so some knowledge of Chinese will be necessary. Ray^Talk 22:09, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Try 刘兴土 and 中国工程院 (Liu Xingtu and Chinese Academy of Engineering). According to his article on Baidu [1] (in Chinese) he gained membership in 2007 so it just needs a more reliable source. This CCTV article [2] (in Chinese) mentions some related project but I haven't had time to read it. Feel free to have a go. Funny ^Pika! 05:57, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

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

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Courcelles 01:55, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Taking FunnyPika's advice, I found an article [3] that does confirm his academy status, passing WP:PROF#C3, although he seems to have been embroiled in some kind of plagiarism scandal. Ray^Talk 08:54, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
