I don't know how to check his citation count, but this professor's publications look a bit too skimpy (in the Ohio U. listing) and there's nothing in the Honors section. Clarityfiend (talk) 04:04, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment I am not going to weight in on this article being deleted, but this link shows about the level of his citation. His Southern Garden Society book was only published a little over a year ago, so it might yet come to be more cited, and his translations of a few major Chinese scholarly works might be of some note. One think I remain unsure of is if there might be references to him in sources in Chinese. His BYU bio mentions among other things his composing an 80-line poem about the history of the activities of the Palace Museum, in Chinese, presented at a conference at the Palace Museum. I'm not sure if he would get notice is Chinese publications, but that is one possibility.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:06, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete - Does not appear to exceed the typical professor. Perhaps WP:TOOSOON.--Rpclod (talk) 02:09, 8 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - I agree with the above comments, though even WP:TOOSOON is unlikely as some of the work has failed to make a substantial impact since coming out in the 1990s.Truth or consequences-2 (talk) 07:46, 8 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. WorldCat shows very average holdings of his 3 books. Agricola44 (talk) 15:51, 8 August 2014 (UTC).
