If you check the log, you'll see this was already speedied once. The second sentence is the only new material. I think, despite the Olympics thing, that it's a pretty clear WP:BLP1E article. Beeblbrox (talk) 02:36, 24 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
Is he really notable for only one event, though? I agree that the article is lacking now, but I think he might be notable for two events: first, saving the kids from the earthquake, and secondly, for marching alongside Yao Ming in the Olympics. - Minute Lake (talk) 15:52, 24 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
His notable act was saving the kids. Marching in the Olympics was just recognition of the notable act. I'll grant you that being invited to the Olympics to march with Yao suggests that China thinks his act of heroism was really notable, but I still think it's a BLP1E situation. From what I've seen, single acts of heroism articles usually don't survive AfD. It may be appropriate to add something about Lin Hao to the main earthquake article, but I don't see material for a separate article here.--Kubigula(talk)22:10, 24 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
