[edit] Ernest Wong

Ernest Wong (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Completing unfinished nomination by Shuyun (talk · contribs). No opinion yet. The article has been tagged for notability since May 2007. The ~200 Chinese GHits are about unrelated individuals [1]; had time to go through the English GNews hits, but at a cursory glance I haven't found any which are actually about the same Ernest Wong. Find sources: Ernest Wong — news, books, scholar. cab (talk) 03:00, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete NLP trainers are not academics. i doubt he is a notable trained in " ACCELERATRED LEARNING" either. (spelling as in the article) DGG (talk) 09:33, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
    • Comment. I agree he's not an academic, but I listed it in the deletion sorting page because there is a claim in the article that he's an educator: the part about founding a language learning center (with a name strangely resembling but not the same as UNESCO) and teaching 20k people to speak (don't most people older than a toddler already know how to do this?). As for the article itself, I'm concerned that it's taking the names of the Universities of California and British Columbia in vain: I searched but couldn't find any official connection between anything named "Turning Point" and UC, nor between the Society of NLP and UBC. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:13, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
