Fails WP:BIO... most search hits come from show listings. No cult following or significant press coverage. He did get second place in "Hong Kong Funniest Person Contest" but outside of a brief mention in Time 1, it isn't a notable contest. Delete Mr. Vernon (talk) 06:49, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • I am the article's primary author. There are many reasons to keep this article. First, the article has been revised to address some of the original concerns. Second, Chris does have a cult following, albeit within Hong Kong. In addition, the contest, the HK International Comedy Festival, is notable. Aside from a discussion in Time, the contest has also been discussed on Punchline magazine [1] and the South China Morning Post [2]. Paul Ogata, a notable comedian, hosted the finals last year and Tom Cotter is hosting this year. The contest is also run by Jami Gong, a notable comedian. The fact is that Comedy Central's website is banned in China.[1] Chris Musni is one of the leaders of the emerging stand-up comedy scene in Hong Kong, which can be verified through the various show listings that highlight Chris' performances.
