Unless mentioned in reliable source, the list more or less violate WP:original research.

The list should be backed up 100% by external reliable source, and using the same method to fill the missing, such as Donald Li, the fourth generation of Li family, a physician and President-elect of World Organization of Family Doctors.[1] Matthew_hk tc 16:31, 19 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hoax and circular referencing edit

There were some hoax added by an ip in 2012 (Special:Diff/504324632) which claiming their descendant owns Fortune Global 500 companies, which is false. Neither Bank of East Asia, Hysan Development, Shun Tak Holdings, Sociedade de Turismo e Diversões de Macau and Melco International Development qualifies, and it is not encyclopedic as minority shareholders. (In fact, many HK citizens had a small shares of HSBC). The NEW "big 4"'s CK Hutchison Holdings, Sun Hung Kai Properties, Henderson Land Development and Chow Tai Fook may qualifies, however.

Which this poor author in this book published by Palgrave Macmillan, c&p the wikipedia without using brain. [1] Matthew_hk tc 16:32, 19 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
