An "internet personality" who tries hard to be famous for being famous. Name primarily seems to pop up as an interviewer of actually notably people. Owning a fitness center and restaurant provides some name-drops but nothing more. The lot garnished with gossip about his dog and a single cameo. Fails WP:GNG.

Keep - passes GNG. [1][2][3][4][5] and that's just English language sources dug up in 2 seconds. His notability has nothing to do with what he is famous for. --Spacepine (talk) 02:51, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep - Of the references cited above, almost all come from a single source (Taiwan News, which whilst definitely a WP:NEWSORG is not the best of TW's EN-language newspapers - not to put too fine a point on things). Epoch Times is not generally considered an RS. I think the Taiwan News articles, the AsiaOne one cited above, and this Taipei Times article get him over the bar for WP:BASIC. Not enthusiastic about this as this guy clearly is just a Youtuber, but WP:BASIC appears met so keep it is. FOARP (talk) 07:40, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Procedural note: it doesn't matter whether the person is an 'internet personality', Youtuber, 'famous for being famous', etc.-- those are not actually rationales for deletion. If the subject is notable, they're notable, regardless of how little you think they contribute to society. Gilded Snail (talk) 21:34, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
