I would like to propose the deletion of this article - Larsen's only notable mention is the fact that Larsen is the subject of the documentary: The Mole: Undercover in North Korea. I would like to suggest that the article covering the documentary sufficiently covers Larsen as a subject - most significantly due to the fact that none of the listed citations or any significant, reliable sources that I were able to find mentions Larsen outside the context of the documentary. askeuhd (talk) 07:33, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Selective Merge to The Mole: Undercover in North Korea per BIO1E - insufficient coverage outside of the documentary for a stand-alone article. A rename will be needed if this is kept. Walt Yoder (talk) 15:40, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

According to a report by BBC Korea on October 11, 2020, a company named 'Chosun Narae Trading Company' was mentioned in a UN panel of experts report for its alleged involvement in North Korea's illicit arms trade. This is similar to the company 'Narae Trading Agency' which appeared in Larssen's documentary as a front company for North Korea's weapons trade. As the documentary and the UN panel report share this similarity, it can be considered credible. Therefore, just as many articles related to North Korea are being maintained despite a lack of sufficient reliability and objectivity, I believe that this article should also be kept.

Merge as suggested by Walt Yoder. The article has very little information not directly related to the documentary—just the personal life section. This information would fit better on the documentary's article if independent notability cannot be established for Larsen. Uffda608 (talk) 15:58, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge only properly sourced and unredundant material per above. // Timothy :: talk 01:05, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
