WP:V -- Unsourced BLP. If the claim about coaching in the K-league can be verified (Daejeon Citizen) can be verified with a single reliable source. I'd be happy to call that notable, but I haven't been able to track down a reference that isn't a wikimirror or a forum post. Definitely running into a language barrier on this one, sources or even a the correct Hangul translation of the coach's name would be warmly welcomed. joe decker ^{talk to me} 06:21, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: unable to find significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject of this unsourced BLP. J04n(talk page) 10:59, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete - If the content of the article can be verified, he is quite clearly notable, but until then we cannot assume that he is. Sir Sputnik (talk) 19:28, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment No player of this name was ever selected to play for South Korea at the Olympics. The closest I can find is Kim Ki Nam, who was no.22 in the squad for 1996 according to fifa, which I think means he was only a standby player. Stu.W UK (talk) 19:53, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - no evidence he meets WP:NFOOTBALL or WP:GNG. Giant Snowman 01:01, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete~~ - Although the claim in the article if verified would mean the subject is notable, I can find no sources to verify any of the assertions for notability. I am unable to confirm he has competed at the Olympics. I cannot confirm he is the coach of Daejeon Citizen. This is the current coaching staff in Korean which is not help to me as I cannot read Korean. This machine translation seems to have the manager vaguely match with our article on Daejeon Citizen FC. The others, not so much. -- Whpq (talk) 17:15, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep now that source has been found. -- Whpq (talk) 11:08, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Lim Ki-Han or Lim Gi-Han (Hangul: 임기한) currently head coach of Daejeon Citizen U-18 team, and he played in a fully pro league.im1a2 (talk) 05:03, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Change to Keep as nominator, per Im1a2. Nicely done, thank you. --joe decker ^{talk to me} 05:28, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep A source in English, even as a machine translation, would be great Stu.W UK (talk) 13:09, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: per improvements to article.--Milowent • ^talkblp-r 13:49, 11 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
