[edit] Jonah Kim (2nd nomination)
This is the second attempt by the artist's agent (this time by User:Artistisoleil rather than User:Globalartists) of gaining publicity through Wikipedia. As before, the user has created the page, and nothing else. In addition to beang laden with peacock terms, the sources do nothing to verify the article. As before, the article fails to meet WP:NOTE in addition to WP:NOT#SOAPBOX, as the only source given was his personal webpage and the local town hall, and I can't find any others confirming notability CA387 22:19, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
- Speedy delete G4, so tagged Repost of content which was previously deleted after a full AfD discussion. No new evidence of notability either. I did more investigation: The 19 GNews archive hits are just trivial mentions in laundry lists of similar young performers. [1] Also checked Korean-language hits --- don't know the subject's Korean name, but a search on his father's name + cello (his father has the same name as some city councilman, hence the need for the narrowing term) gets only 2 GHits [2]. cab 23:43, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Okay, I see his Korean name κΉμλ in the wikitext (a misplaced tag in a template). 6 GHits for that + cello [3]. No WP:RS, not even the typical hagiographical profiles that home country or local ethnic media like to do about their high-achieving descendants. cab 23:49, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
