List of South Korean girl groups

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article seems to be subvert the usage of List of South Korean idol groups into specific girl group fork. While each group may be reliably source, the amount of indiscriminate trivia and lack of sources on generations, "concepts" and list of television shows seems far outside the norm for List articles.

The best I can point to is List of girl groups, which doesn't include such things. Far too much subjective information that approaches a fanpage, not a encyclopedic article. Evaders99 (talk) 00:43, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

 * AFD is not clean up. If there is information that you think does not belong, remove it. But you don't seem to be challenging the idea of the list itself or that its entries are verifiable, which means you do not have a deletion argument. postdlf (talk) 01:31, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep Article is sourced, all the main entries are notable, as is the subject itself. UnitedStatesian (talk) 03:07, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep This well-sourced article on the notable subject matter of Korean "girl groups" is an obvious keep for the encyclopedia, and a contribution to the historical record. It is not a fanpage as represented in deletion nom; it could be enlarged and developed - the fact that it is in a start stage is not criteria for deletion.

 * Keep The subject of south korean girl groups has enough weight to hold itself(notability) to warrant a standalone article. You could argue that the article needs improvements (such as a better sorting), which I agree with, but to simply delete the article would not be wise, as it is encyclopedic.
