– Currently there are 4 Kim Soo-hyun's with a page on English wikipedia, and this particular actor had 91,521 hits last month, vs. writer (1348), the 1988 actor (1209) and the 1985 actress (393). That's over 96.9% of traffic for this actor. Since all of the options are currently in modern Korean entertainment, popularity can and should be the main consideration factor for determining primary topic. My only reservation is that the actress who goes by Claudia Kim is actually quite popular as well if you search for page stats using that English title, but still, the actor has over 4 times more traffic than her.

  • Support per evidence of a clear primary topic by reader interest. bd2412 T 18:55, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Sawol (talk) 04:22, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose current popularity should never be the basis for primary topic, because it is so ephemeral. Appearances in books and thoughtful journal articles is much more dispositive of encyclopedic primacy. Since none of those have that, none should get primacy. --Bejnar (talk) 14:43, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Clearly the primary topic. Current popularity certainly plays a role in determining the primary topic, especially so when all of the subjects derive their notable purely from recent actions.--Yaksar (let's chat) 18:16, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support If we were so confined to ivory-tower literature as Bejnar suggests, we wouldn't have articles on these people at all. That's silly. Given how comparable these people are, as the nominator and Yaskar point out, the view stats alone are enough to show there's a clear primary topic. —innotata 02:13, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Reliability of sources[edit]

Since several sets of sources have recently been repeatedly removed from the page, I'm opening a section here to discuss the issue. Why are the various IP addresses objecting to these? Mortee (talk) 23:22, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think the discussion is how reliable those sources are. While most are just translations from Korean articles, a lot of blogs are not journalistic in nature and go beyond just reporting into original opinion, essays, and sometimes unscrupulous practices. I expect maybe some of the content can be resurrected through reliable Korean sources rather than specifically deleted - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Korea/Reliable_sources Evaders99 (talk) 05:37, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Someone on my talk page pointed out that the sources have been re-removed. Do people generally feel this is the right call? I'm not putting them back again myself because I can't judge their quality but this does seem to leave the page a bit light on references. It'd be great if the IP user would comment here or someone could put some more solid references in place for the same parts of the article. Mortee (talk) 19:07, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
