[edit] Jerry Kwan
No evidence of notability, looks like vanity and (self-)promotion. Delete. - Mike Rosoft 20:03, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
I'm the writier for this article. Jerry Kwan is one of my friends and I'd like to write an introduction of him. He is a public writer in Hong Kong and has published books as evidence of his publicity. Please check up the books before you decide there's "No evidence of notability".. thanks a lot!~ —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Epsomclose (talk • contribs).
Delete Publishing a book does not make one notable - a lot of people publish books, most of them obscure, bad or just unprofitable. Most of this article is trivial info and on the rare occasion that anything is cited, it's from the subject's own site. If this person is notable as his friend suggests, someone other than himself and his friends will write the article. Ytny 20:28, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:VAIN. Having a buddy write your article for you is as vain as if you did it yourself. --DarkAudit 01:46, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
