As a copyright violation, Kristian Chong appears to qualify for deletion under the speedy deletion criteria. Kristian Chong has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message.

If you believe that the article or image is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License (CC-BY-SA) then you should do one of the following:

• If you have permission from the author, leave a message explaining the details at Talk:Kristian Chong and send an email with the message to permissions-enwikimedia.org. See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.

Please note that assertion of permission to use material is not enough.

Also, even if the copyright issue were resolved, the promotional tone of a company or personal website is likely to be quite unsuitable for an encyclopedia article, which requires a neutral point of view. Wikipedia is not for advertising or promotion of any kind.

Article subjects need to have notability, which is not a matter of saying so but has to be demonstrated by references showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." There is more detail at WP:Notability (people) and for musical performers WP:MUSICBIO, and good advice on how to write an acceptable article at WP:Your first article.
