  • Delete. He was an editor in chief of the International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture, but I'm not convinced that it's a "major well-established academic journal" for the purposes of WP:NPROF#C8. I don't think membership of the China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine (more commonly translated in English as the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences I think) could qualify for WP:NPROF#C3, but I can't find any clear indication of whether its membership is highly selective or not. I also couldn't find evidence of major awards and his highest academic post seems to have been as a professor. [https://www.eastlandpress.com/products/acupuncture-case-histories-from-china His book] got some reviews and was translated into three languages, but given that it came out in the 1980s I'm having trouble tracking down the original reviews to check how significant they are. I'm also not sure that the editor of a book of medical case reports would play enough of a "significant role" to qualify per WP:NAUTHOR. So based on that I lean delete unless anyone is able to find significant offline sources. MCE89 (talk) 09:31, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
