Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kai Z Feng
Offline sources are certainly admissible if you cite publication name, year, issue, etc., but these must be actual newspaper articles ''about'' Feng, not just instances of his work being printed and a photo credit being given to him. |Notability, to a first approximation, means being discussed in the news or in academia, not having your work published. The fact of his possibly being the only Chinese fashion photographer commissioned by both Vogue and Harper's Bazaar is mildly interesting, but can't really count as the basis of notability if |reliable sources haven't actually ''noted'' said fact. Basically, if someone is not discussed by reliable sources, then pretty much any observations you make about their body of work (besides purely statistical ones) will inevitably be |original research. Went through the 62 Chinese GHits (not 11) and didn't see anything that would help. http://www.google.com.hk/search?q=%E9%A6%AE%E5%BF%97%E5%87%B1&num=30&complete=1&hl=zh-TW&safe=active&start=60&sa=N
