[edit] Hyupyoung

Hyupyoung (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

This article on an obscure South Korean manufacturer does not appear to meet WP:CORP. It is one of a very large number of articles created by a single user in what appears to have been a semi-bot autocreation of machine-translated corporate spam articles. I have not found any record of third-party coverage or any other tokens of notability, in either Korean or English. 'Hyupyoung -wikipedia' gets 170 Google hits; the Korean name "협영" gets 980. No reliable sources are evident in either set of results. Prod tag was removed, although I'm not sure why; therefore listing here. Visviva 05:25, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete. Not notable at all. This is the kind of thing that makes me wish prod removals could be reverted if done with no explanation. -Amarkov blahedits 05:32, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
    • In fairness, there was an explanation, i.e. "Seems notable." I'm just not quite sure what made the article topic even seem notable. :-) -- Visviva 10:44, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
      • You're right. Still, just saying "notable" isn't much better than nothing. -Amarkov blahedits 04:59, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per above. MER-C 06:17, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom - unless someone with a working knoledge of Korean can translate the ghtis in that language and show the notablity. SkierRMH,01:35, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
