Comment: Here are three sources I found about Patrick Lau Hing Tat (traditional Chinese: 劉興達; simplified Chinese: 刘兴达):
1. Chen, Bonnie (2015-03-02). "Landscape wizard: A deep passion for biology and geography prompted Patrick Lau Hing-tat to take up landscape architecture". The Standard. Archived from the original on 2022-02-14. Retrieved 2022-02-14.
  The article notes: "A deep passion for biology and geography prompted Patrick Lau Hing-tat to take up landscape architecture. Now, chairman of landscape architectural firm Earthasia International (6128), Lau relishes his profession as it allows him to have a strong positive impact on the environment. Currently, there are only 100 licensed landscape architects in Hong Kong, making them an elite but unique group of professionals. ... He has been outspoken in the past about the environment, drawing the attention of senior officials in the government who then decided to tap his expertise. Lau is a member of the Town Planning Board and the Lands and Development Advisory Committee. In the past, he was a Eastern District Councillor and a member of the Harbourfront Commission."
2. Wong, Olga (2013-03-10).

delete Article subject has some notability but I believe article fails WP:GNG. The sources that cunard commented still don't help the article's case much. GoldMiner24 (talk) 23:38, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
