The result was keep. Liste for 13 days with no arguments for deletion aside from the nominator. I'm going to interpret Dekkappai's comment as a "weak keep" (non-admin closure) Ron Ritzman (talk) 23:57, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

For the World[edit]

Comment. Keep. I'd expect a better deletion rationale. Why isn't it notable? Did you try searching for sources? Big Bang are a very popular hip-hop group in Korea, so their first release in the Japanese market might well be notable. Big Bang in Korean is "빅뱅은" and For the World is "포 더 월드". It did receive coverage in the Korean press: [1]. The rest of the sources are in Korean:[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12], some focus on it, some mention it in passing. It might well have got coverage in Japan too. Fences and windows (talk) 22:11, 11 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. "빅뱅" in Korean, "ビッグバン" in Japanese, as in this Google news search, and this-- an article from the Japanese version of the JoongAng Ilbo. A good wallop with some form of sealife would seem to be in order... Dekkappai (talk) 22:54, 11 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sealife walloping already done. Fences and windows (talk) 00:15, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
