Little notability. Lots of claims with little references to back them up. Everything I can find links him to his product. If this person does deserve an article, it needs to be rewritten from scratch without the cruft. Spryde 17:22, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

• Delete Main claim to notability is his book, which turns out to be self-published [1]. No relevant GNews hits in English. [2]. Has a few patents [3], but secondary sources don't seem to have written about them. Korean name is Hwang Sang-yeon (황상연); too common to be useful as a search term, but only 5 GHits in connection with the Korean Association of Greater Miami [4], mostly trivial coverage in the local paper. cab 00:45, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep I was spelling his name wrong, he actually gets a number of GNews archive hits [5] which verifies the content of the article. Working on improving it. cab 07:34, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Nomination Withdrawn Article has improved drastically over the last week. It is amazing how an AfD can do that :-) Spryde 12:22, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
