Non-notable stub written in poor English by a now-blocked user, whose creation of these articles was deemed disruptive editing. what little salvageable material there is can be incorporated at target Li (surname). this redirect has been discussed and there was some prior consensus at Talk:Li (surname)#Merger proposal.
