Does not meet the criteria for inclusion on Wikipedia at Wikipedia:Notability (people). The article has been padded out with many citations, but ultimately I do not see any strong claim to notability that warrants an independent article. Many of the sources are weak, blog-like, primary sources (i.e. links to her personal Instagram and webpage), or only related to the article subject via her father.

Note 2: the namespace Sabrina Ho was protected from creation for the concern of "Repeatedly recreated A7 article − non-notable person, organisation, etc.", so did Draft:Sabrina Ho, Sabrina Ho Chiu Yeng. Matthew_hk tc 13:30, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Here's a partnership agreement she just signed with the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural organization alongside their Director-General Irina Bokova at a ceremony in November.

Here's an article Forbes wrote about her work with UNESCO and Chiu Yeng's businesses.

Here's a Forbes article on Asia's most powerful businesswomen listing Chiu Yeng as a "woman to watch".

Here's an article in the South China Morning Post about the business Chiu Yeng established Poly Auction Macau, in partnership with the Chinese state owned conglomerate China Poly Group Corporation which grosses 10s of billions of US dollars a year, of which she serves as CEO.

None of this has to do with her father. And we're only cracking the tip of the iceberg. There's a lot more here. Cashannam (talk) 06:56, 10 December 2017 (UTC) Note: User:Cashannam, the article creator, was suspected as a sock as block evasion. Matthew_hk tc 13:49, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Sandstein 07:55, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Please don't add multiple keep votes. Citobun (talk) 06:04, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Where have I made multiple keep votes? I made a single keep vote (above). The rest of my posts are responses to other user's commentary. Cashannam (talk) 07:36, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Let's assess the links Cashnnam posted above, one by one:
The United Nations is not an independent source? Cashannam (talk) 02:38, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
She has "partnered" with a UN fund and potentially even donated to the fund. Either way, the source is clearly not independent of the article subject. Citobun (talk) 03:21, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
So what? Virtually every country in the world is a United Nations member and contributes money. Does that mean if the UN writes an article about working with the United States or President Trump it's not independent? Cashannam (talk) 04:27, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Clearly not comparable. Also, this piece is essentially a press release. Citobun (talk) 06:04, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It's a two page article detailing her career. Cashannam (talk) 02:38, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Again, anyone can contribute to this "Forbes contributors" platform. These are not independent, paid journalists. This is not "real Forbes". Citobun (talk) 03:21, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That is true, however, Steve Forbes's daughter is pictured next to Chiu Yeng in the article... at the event the article is covering. Cashannam (talk) 04:31, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
OK, still not a reliable source. Citobun (talk) 06:04, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This statement proves you didn't actually READ any of my sources. The coverage explores her entire career. I just listed it above in relation to Chiu Yeng meeting the Prime Minister of East Timor. You read one sentence that I wrote and replied instead of looking at the article! Cashannam (talk) 02:38, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I read the article. Citobun (talk) 03:21, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If you read the article why do you claim it's about a single event when it's not at all about a single event?
http://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/arts-music/article/2122384/unesco-partner-sabrina-ho-artfully-dabbles
Cashannam (talk) 04:19, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I said that it places her in relation to a single event. Citobun (talk) 06:04, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This is not a Forbes contributor. It's a Forbes Asia special report written by their staff. Did you read it? Cashannam (talk) 02:38, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I read it. It says "Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own". It's not a Forbes staff member. Citobun (talk) 03:21, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I will ask again. Did you READ the article? It does not state what you claim at all. Please specify where I can find the language "Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own". https://www.forbes.com/pictures/fdgk45jklf/sabrina-ho-chiu-yeng-25/#35f0797d56ac Cashannam (talk) 04:19, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The text I quoted is visible if you click through to the article that the photo is associated with. Citobun (talk) 06:04, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
There are multiple sources... SCMP, Forbes, the United Nations... Cashannam (talk) 02:38, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Of the links you posted, only SCMP is a reliable source. Citobun (talk) 03:21, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Forbes and the United Nations aren't reliable sources? Cashannam (talk) 04:19, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
For reasons I have already explained, no, not in this particular instance. Citobun (talk) 06:04, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Event bio – not any sort of publication/media coverage. Not an independent source.
A subject like this has a lot of money to hire a PR firm with the right connections to help churn out a few puff pieces. But there aren't enough solid sources to meet the criteria at Wikipedia:Notability (people), and therefore this article doesn't belong on Wikipedia. Citobun (talk) 13:55, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That is true. But just because she may have the money to do what you described doesn't mean she has! Wikipedia:Assume good faith Cashannam (talk) 02:40, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Why are you linking to AGF? That policy is intended for Wikipedian editors, not the subjects of Wikipedia articles. Citobun (talk) 03:21, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Cashannam:, According to citation given by Cunard (何超盈伙教科文組織開發大數據 聯同《福布斯》數據庫 解決教育就業問題. Ming Pao (in Chinese (Hong Kong)).), Forbes had business relationship with Ho Chiu Yeng, so even it was done by Forbes / Forbes Asia staff, it hardly an independent secondary source.

If that's "canvassing" so be it. This article should go or stay based on quality and content. The actions of a specific user are irrelevant. Cashannam (talk) 04:19, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
How do you know I'm looking for a "Keep" vote? Perhaps Cunard will review Google in Chinese and find there are no sources at all. Wikipedia:Assume good faith Citobun — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cashannam (talkcontribs) 2017-12-20T04:23:58 (UTC)
Please review the policy at Wikipedia:Canvassing. Thanks, Citobun (talk) 06:04, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
According to Wikipedia:Canvassing, "In general, it is perfectly acceptable to notify other editors of ongoing discussions, provided that it be done with the intent to improve the quality of the discussion by broadening participation to more fully achieve consensus."
I posted on Cunard's talk page: "Having read your comment on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Emily Lam Ho, since you are familiar with Chinese names and Googled hers, would you mind also having a look at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chiu Yeng Ho? Thanks."
I did not violate Wikipedia's canvassing policy. Cashannam (talk) 06:42, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I consider this an acceptable notification per Wikipedia:Canvassing#Appropriate notification:
