I cannot find any significant independent coverage, having searched for the person's English and Chinese names. None of the sources cited in the article mention his name, except for island6, the gallery that represents him, which is not independent. Fails WP:ARTIST.

Delete as examining the article shows it's still questionable for the applicable notability and the current article has no better convincing signs. SwisterTwister talk 06:25, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Basically just a slightly rewritten plagiarism of this page; the other references don't provide any notability because they basically don't mention him at all. Laura Jamieson (talk) 08:55, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Return to user space, article was moved to mainspace by someone other than the author. Hobit (talk) 00:58, 6 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Hobit: What in the world are you talking about? The creator moved this page to mainspace on their own. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 22:36, 7 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. It looks like the Popblack created a draft and moved it here October 3, 2010 and then recreated that in userspace on October 8, 2010, worked to change the contents on February 27, 2011, tried to G7 this page (I'm guessing to move the revised draft here) and then gave up. Since the name isn't even clear in the sources and the draft is very questionable, there's no evidence about what is going on here other than either this is the right page and the other draft should be deleted or this is a hoax and that the other page belongs at MFD for potential deletion. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 22:45, 7 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete this and any userspace copies. No independent reliable sources discussion the subject directly and in depth. As per Laura Jamieson. Essentially, it is promotion of a non-notable artist. Do not write on subjects that others have not already written about. I think it is well written, but it is promotion. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 04:10, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
