[edit] Johnny Chung Lee

Johnny Chung Lee (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Contested PROD; it's not usual to have an article about a graduate student who has not finished their doctoral degree. There would have to be exceptional evidence of notability as per WP:PROF, and it's just not demonstrated here, even after the edits by the editor who removed the PROD tag. Delete.

  • delete I see no notable achievements here. If there are reliable secondary sources providing extensive coverage of Johnny Chung Lee (so as to satisfy WP:N with WP:RS) then I'd be glad to change my position. Pete.Hurd 03:03, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete: No sources to verify any notability (if there is any). - Rjd0060 04:56, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete I can see no possible way he's notable as a scientist. if his inexpensive steadycam is more than a clever device, and truly important in the industry, that might be another matter, but the references dont really show that. I doubt they show him notable as an artist either. I think many people here may find one of those references fascinating [1] , but it isnt about him--I do not see that he is even mentioned.

  • Delete. The $14 Steady-Cam made quite a blog splash in pre-Digg days and I thought it may just satisfy general notability, but it appears to have garnered few reliable sources. That's his best claim, alas. Cool guy, not notable. --Dhartung | Talk 07:15, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as per above. --Crusio 09:54, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
