Fails BIO & WP:PROMO article on an unremarkable VP Sales & Marketing; significant RS coverage cannot be found. Wikipedia is WP:NOT a resume.

The article appears to be part of a walled garden around Meizu and various models of its smartphones developed by Special:Contributions/Ut_tbkbob who does not have contributions outside of this topic. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:39, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete as a clear example and item of a PR advertising campaign, from considering the listed information and completely unconvincing "sources" to the fact the account is in fact also a PR-initiated account, there's of course absolutely no inherited notability either and there's literally nothing else here.

 * Delete: The article text and sources indicate a man with a job. Biographical notability is not inherited from an employer or a role in product announcements. AllyD (talk) 16:47, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Retain: I am not affiliated with Meizu, however Chinese smartphone manufacturers are my area of expertise and Meizu was clearly underrepresented on the English Wikipedia (especially in comparison to Baidu Baike). Li Nan is *the* public representative of Meizu and proactively engages in discussions about rumors (e.g. alleged iPhone 7 leak in March 2016) and products - specifically on Chinese social media (Weibo). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ut tbkbob (talk • contribs) 03:50, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete and close this Afd. The subject is non-notable. With statements like "Under his leadership...", "Li Nan has over 890,000 followers..." used within the article, I can only imagine how this article has been written. Lourdes  10:33, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
