Louis (South Korean singer)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Notability not demonstrated; no extant references; no Korean article, which would be ko:임상훈 for his real name, or listed at the disambiguation page ko:루이스 for his stage name (but it is not there). – Fayenatic London 15:59, 7 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Although Korean Wikipedia doesn't have article for the singer, it does have article for the song... Sources being offline today doesn't mean that they were not valid when the article was created. There are several similar articles in English Wikipedia that assert that original artists of songs that have cultural impact are notable. Monni (talk) 17:26, 7 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Where are the refs that pass WP:MUSICBIO? I don't see them. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:22, 8 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: The two websites cited in the article might have existed at one point, but dead link sites don't precisely fill me with confidence that they were reliable sources. I'm also not enthused by WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS arguments. If the guy's notable, come up with some sources that prove it. If you can't, then he's not notable.
