Yi Deokil | Result: Deleted[edit]

Based on 2 refs to "nafar.com", which seems like a Yahoo! Answers-like Q&A site. One of these refs has since been deleted from this site (with no reason given, but makes me wonder why), and the Google translation of the other ref is hard to follow. I can't really find any English resources on this guy at all except us. Unless someone finds more (at least vaguely reliable) references we should probably remove this. I, for one, am not convinced we're not hosting an undeserved hitpiece here on some obscure Korean guy... Carpetsmoker (talk) 08:19, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
We wouldn't accept Yahoo! Answers as the sole reference on a living person article. We shouldn't have an article that relies solely on a similar site in Korean. This probably means the subject of the article wouldn't pass any kind of notability test. Spud (talk) 10:34, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
Current refs insufficient for a bio of a living person. If he's as sue-happy as the article claims, we should consider that before using a 404 page to attack him. The FCP Foundation (talk/stalk) 11:43, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
As it's also unclear where on the random/interesting nutball scale he falls, but as he seems to be more the former than the latter and with the added problem of bad ref.s, I'll vote delete. ScepticWombat (talk) 16:54, 28 November 2015 (UTC)

While the cites fail both our BLP tests and our emerging non-English sources test, he's used as a reference in this Wikipedia article. Bicycle^wheel 10:47, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
