Chiu does not meet the notability requirements (WP:BIO). Coverage is not substantial as references to his website are either his own advertising, promotional articles or mentions of the website as being stupid (such as in the book "505 Unbelievably Stupid Web P@ges") but not uniquely stupid. The article appears to be cut & paste from his own advertising material about his scam products offering to make you immortal. Though "feature articles" were mentioned in the last AFD (2 years ago), there are no significant reliable sources demonstrating notability in the sense of "notorious" and it appears unlikely that any such sources will be found and added to the article (as per WP:BIO "trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may not be sufficient to establish notability").

 * Delete per nom. Fails BIO, no significant coverage in reliable third-party sources. Lara  17:48, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Another NN-BIO and this one looks like a catalog of 'failings' written by someone with a beef - A l is o n  ❤ 02:34, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, unless it gets significant inclusion of RS that debunk his nonsense. Then it would at least serve as a useful warning to likely marks. Per FRINGE and WEIGHT those sources would then make up the largest part of the article. -- Brangifer (talk) 03:32, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:BIO. Major BLP issues also. Kevin (talk) 01:36, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Chiu probably merits some mention at Magnet therapy, but there do not appear to be sources available for a policy-compliant article. - 2/0 (cont.) 22:31, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
