• Keep has been playing for the national team for a long time, some mild coverage, including several news sources coverning subjects participation at the 2023 Asian Games, which I have added. Google search resulted in a decent amount of results. Enough to pass WP:GNG. Inter&anthro (talk) 06:43, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - Those don't even come close to passing WP:GNG. None of the sources you found contain in depth coverage of the individual in question. Simione001 (talk) 12:04, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for other reason given in discussion toobigtokale (talk) 17:54, 18 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting, please assess additions to the article since nomination. Also, as an aside, for other reason given in discussion doesn't provide any reason to delete an article so it's a discounted opinion.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:59, 19 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - All 4 article are essentially match reports, 3 of which talk about how some of the players confronted the referee during the match after disagreeing with an on field decision with one of those articles being pay-walled however it appears to be duplicate of the others. None of them address the subject in any detail. Simione001 (talk) 00:03, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Policy question, I know replies without additional reasoning are weighed less; is it preferred practice to not make them at all? I thought it was ok to do so, sorry if I was off the mark. toobigtokale (talk) 18:10, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - added some Indonesian language references to the article that cover the subject in bit more depth. Inter&anthro (talk) 17:02, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. The additional sources are two very similar listicle-type blurbs covering the same three players and published a day apart. Clearly not intellectually independent material, and not SIGCOV either. JoelleJay (talk) 03:00, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Quite the opposite, they are sources (from another country no less) covering the subject and his playing style indepth. North Korea is a journalistically repressed country, so you probably aren't going to find the sources you demand detailing Kim Kuk-bom's dental hygiene and favorite color. Inter&anthro (talk) 15:21, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  They are far from in depth. Anyway you just admitted that there aren't any sources and that's exactly why it should be deleted. Simione001 (talk) 21:57, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
