 * Keep. There is sufficient notability here and implied significance; appears to be an unfolding issue. If anyone fluent in Mandarin can moderate the sources and restructure the article; I think someone just needs to be bold and edit it for quality rather than deletion.

 * Keep This article is definitely notable. It already passes WP:GNG through the Bloomberg and WSJ sources, and there are more online from | AP, | Al Jazeera and | The Guardian. Sure, it needs some writing work, but not worthy of deletion and definitely notable. Nom, please conduct WP:BEFORE searches before nominating an article for deletion.

 * For some reason the Al Jazeera link doesn't want to work. I'll put it here in full. https://www.aljazeera.com/economy/2022/7/6/hackers-offer-data-on-1-billion-chinese-after-alleged-leak JML1148 (Talk &#124; Contribs) 01:48, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
 * And the AP one, for some reason. https://apnews.com/article/technology-china-hong-kong-shanghai-ce27c6ef6f6d31ce917ee27f80c9589d JML1148 (Talk &#124; Contribs) 01:49, 14 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Multiple high-profile in-depth coverage from mainstream outlets as noted by JML1148
 * Please don't make AfD nominations like this. If an article needs a re-write, tag it. Jack4576 (talk) 06:24, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Yep, in this case, it was sheer laziness that stopped them from doing a 30-second Google search, if that, and find multiple reliable sources. JML1148 (Talk &#124; Contribs) 06:25, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
 * My main point of the nomination was more so that the article was incoherent; however, I did remember a deletion policy wrong and that's my bad. Feel free to close. Dawnbails (talk) 14:05, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
