I can't find too much coverage on this comedian--and I very much doubt that an appearance on the Late Show is of and in itself enough to merit an article. Blueboy96 04:03, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep The Boston Globe discusses his work here: [1] and This google news search turns up plenty of reviews and interviews in many reliable sources, there seems to be plenty here. Some are behind paywalls, but I see enough in the abstracts to indicate that there are many articles that discuss him and his work. --Jayron32 04:31, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - I don't find him very funny but [2] and [3], along with many other news results in conjunction with his appearances on Ellen and the Late Show establish him has notable. -- Whpq (talk) 21:26, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Only one comedian is invited to entertain the White House Correspondents Dinner each year. The fact that Wong was makes him notable. Also, besides his appearance on Letterman, he's a regular on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. MyPOV (talk) 21:16, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Agreed with MyPOV, hosting the Correspondents' Dinner makes him notable. WLGades (talk) 09:15, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
