The article was so much original research. Wikidata synced the article with the zh-wiki article about the book Land and the Ruling Class in Hong Kong, while i can't find the term "Real Estate Hegemony" really came from. Is that a self translation by a wikipedia user?

Since the article old content history was much hidden due to copyvio, the article was violated copyvio already. To not violate self-publishing / original research, the article need blow over and summarized the book and other news article on expressing on the situation, but not a collection of news article and self interpretation as relating to the situation.

Also, despite Alice Poon's book is notable in Hong Kong. I don't think it is appropriate to use her personal blog and her own transcript of her speech to HKU, as a proper citation. Matthew_hk t c 13:30, 19 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As a note, secondary source do reporting tycoon in Hong Kong, but little use to rescue the current OR content.^[1] Matthew_hk t c 14:02, 19 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And here is a rough draft for a proper mapping of the zh-wiki article Draft:Land and the Ruling Class in Hong Kong. Matthew_hk t c 14:41, 19 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Another note: the term " real estate hegemony" apparently appeared in SF Weekly of San Francisco in 1995. Matthew_hk t c 17:44, 19 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Third note: an article by a professor of Hong Kong was dig out, however, it seem still not able to backup the current content.^[2] Also, since 地產 can be translated to property, the term coined by the Chinese title of the book, can also be translated as Property Hegemony^[3] or Oligopoly of [Hong Kong] real estate [companies/market]. The current search term did came out some external result, but not able to backup the current original research content as citation. Matthew_hk t c 20:35, 19 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
