Real Estate Hegemony

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The article was so much original research. Wikidata synced the article with the zh-wiki article about the book Land and the Ruling Class in Hong Kong, while i can't find the term "Real Estate Hegemony" really came from. Is that a self translation by a wikipedia user?

Since the article old content history was much hidden due to copyvio, the article was violated copyvio already. To not violate self-publishing / original research, the article need blow over and summarized the book and other news article on expressing on the situation, but not a collection of news article and self interpretation as relating to the situation.

Also, despite Alice Poon's book is notable in Hong Kong. I don't think it is appropriate to use her personal blog and her own transcript of her speech to HKU, as a proper citation. Matthew_hk  t  c  13:30, 19 October 2018 (UTC)

 * As a note, secondary source do reporting tycoon in Hong Kong, but little use to rescue the current OR content. Matthew_hk   t  c  14:02, 19 October 2018 (UTC)


 * And here is a rough draft for a proper mapping of the zh-wiki article Draft:Land and the Ruling Class in Hong Kong. Matthew_hk   t  c  14:41, 19 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Another note: the term " real estate hegemony" apparently appeared in SF Weekly of San Francisco in 1995. Matthew_hk   t  c  17:44, 19 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Third note: an article by a professor of Hong Kong was dig out, however, it seem still not able to backup the current content. Also, since 地產 can be translated to property, the term coined by the Chinese title of the book, can also be translated as Property Hegemony or Oligopoly of [Hong Kong] real estate [companies/market]. The current search term did came out some external result, but not able to backup the current original research content as citation. Matthew_hk   t  c  20:35, 19 October 2018 (UTC)
