Gordon Chen

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Unreferenced plot summary. PROD declined by anon (my rationale was "he coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline requirement nor the more detailed Notability (fiction) supplementary essay. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar."). The best WP:PRESERVE alternative I see would be a redirect to Asian Saga.

 * Delete. My benchmark here for "should this be a redirect or a deletion" was "how far do I have to go in a Google search before I get a result that refers to this Gordon Chen". I gave up at page 5. (Though I did pass a link to the film adaptation of Tai-Pan on the way: .) Not a helpful redirect - people searching Wikipedia for this name are unlikely to be looking for the Asian Saga character. -- asilvering (talk) 05:37, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete per nom. The current article is just an unreferenced plot summary, and searches for any additional sources does not turn up any significant coverage in reliable sources that goes beyond plot. I have no real objection if someone wanted to turn it into a redirect to the Asian Saga article, as suggested, as well. Rorshacma (talk) 07:01, 11 December 2022 (UTC)
