Promotional article; two external links to the article topic's Web site, and only two references, one of which is a story about a different newspaper with the same name, the other of which is a reference to the article topic's Web site containing promotional text. Non-notable marked since 2008. Unimproved since 2008. Other problems that appear on page as templates. Universaladdress (talk) 02:14, 19 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - the website fails WP:WEBCRIT, WP:GNG and any number of other guidelines and policies. As a website, its independent Ghits are almost all trivial (in its technical sense) website analytics and mentions of the website in online forums and similar. In my opinion, the only thing that saves this article from "((db-web))" "A7 speedy deletion" is the mention of the historical English language newspaper The Seoul Times. --Shirt58 (talk) 09:57, 19 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
