Although the text provides a brief overview of her career and projects, it lacks significant coverage from independent, reliable sources, which is essential for establishing notability in an encyclopedic context. The information presented largely relies on self-reported achievements and lacks third-party validation, which raises concerns about the reliability of the content. Furthermore, while Wei may have contributions in her field, there is insufficient evidence of widespread recognition or impact, particularly in a competitive area such as food journalism. Her book, “Made in Taiwan,” is mentioned but has not been substantiated by notable reviews that would warrant an encyclopedic entry. In light of these deficiencies, the article could mislead readers into perceiving her as a figure of significant prominence, which she has not demonstrated through independent sources. Therefore, it is appropriate to remove this entry to uphold Wikipedia's standards for verifiable content and to prevent the dilution of the platform with non-notable subjects. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Atlantaborn (talk • contribs) 13:23, 2 November 2024 (UTC) Blocked sock.

Speedy Keep per WP:CSK#3. The nomination rationale seems to be AI-generated and is entirely erroneous. I checked the first three sources cited in this version of the article (Salon.com, Eater, and KQED), and they are clearly reliable sources with SIGCOV. Her book Made in Taiwan was also reviewed by Los Angeles Times and Atlas Obscura, with those reviews also included in the article. GNG and WP:AUTHOR are obviously met. The only edits made by User:Atlantaborn are removing sourced content from this article (which I have restored) and filing for its deletion. —Prince of Erebor（The Book of Mazarbul） 14:09, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
Keep - meets WP:GNG due to significant coverage Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 14:20, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

Delete – The article fails to demonstrate notability and doesn't reflect her standing within food journalism. Many of the cited sources do not establish a strong narrative of her influence or achievements, which is crucial for inclusion on Wikipedia.

Delete – Wei is more of a minor player in food journalism and writing. Although she’s done some work in this space, there just isn’t enough independent coverage from major publications that you’d expect for someone who's truly notable, besides book promotion PR. A lot of the articles come off as self-promotional, which doesn’t really paint her as a widely recognized figure in the industry.

Strong keep, this clearly meets GNG and OP seems to have an axe to grind. I would also note that a man with this level of coverage would never end up at AFD. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 17:03, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
