Kim Sang-Soon

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Basically unsourced save for a un-Waybackable deadlink, I can't find reliable sources which discuss this artist at all. Kinda problematic, as there are, at first glance, apparent claims of notability (e.g., the prizes), but it's not immediately apparent to me which exhibitions are being referred to. ko.wiki lists four individuals with this name, none of them him, and attempts to search on the Hangul name here have proven problematic. However, language barriers are absolutely in play, and additional sources, as always, are welcome. j⚛e deckertalk 16:20, 4 August 2012 (UTC) Withdrawn, see below.

 * Uncertain I found a copy of the Art Korea article. You can read it here. There are two full pages on Sang Soon, along with a list of his prizes and accomplishments. This makes me think there's probably more sources out there in Korean. Silver  seren C 04:36, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I'd actually be happy to withdraw on that source, it looks quite significant, which makes me think (as do you) that the article isn't a fabrication, and with those prizes being presumed verifiable eventually, there'd be enough sourcing one way or another. --j⚛e deckertalk 04:39, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
 * That would be nice of you. :) And I agree. Silver  seren C 04:55, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Done.  Cheers!   --j⚛e deckertalk 05:15, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
