Penal code of Korea

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Unreferenced article created by editor who was previously banned for disruptive editing and has created other CSD or AFD nominated articles. Editor has made no attempt to provide references, instead just plays about with odd wiki and html formatting Biker Biker (talk) 18:26, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment. This appears as though with a little work it could be a legitimate article, but I'm not sure I could do it. I posted this at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Korea in attempt to find some people who might know more. Location (talk) 18:47, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Kepp defiantly a valid notable article, just needs cleaning up, expanding and sourcing - much like most articles by new users really. I have cleaned up the Wiki formatting of the list, but before we start sourcing or anything we need to know whether we are talking about North or South Korea, I assume South but to be on the safe side. --Wintonian (talk) 20:51, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge to Law of South Korea or Law of North Korea (to whichever the article's content refers), leaving a disambiguation directing to both. The very term "Korea" is too ambiguous, and can refer to the ROK or DPRK, which have very different legal and penal codes. Intelligent  sium  23:11, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep Korea had a penal code before its division. Material such as this indicate that there are plenty of sources. Colonel Warden (talk) 07:37, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Remark. Although the article lacks sources that I can trace, this is clearly about South Korea; see Law of South Korea. The 42 "chapters of specific provisions" mentioned there correspond neatly to the 42 crimes identified here. --Lambiam 20:06, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand. There are plenty of Wikipedia articles on specific legal codes, and that's a good thing. This is one more. TJRC (talk) 00:45, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. A content fork to Law of South Korea if this is about South Korea.Biophys (talk) 21:25, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Not a fork; a more detailed treatment of the subject than the more general article Law of South Korea. See WP:Content forking. TJRC (talk) 07:00, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Not a valid stub. It tells: "conspiracy of the foreign troubles". Where it came from ? Looks like OR trouble.Biophys (talk) 18:39, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
 * It needs to be cleaned up (to put it mildly), agreed. Not a content fork, however. TJRC (talk) 19:43, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep: An acceptable content fork. The subject is notable, although the article is poorly written at best. NativeForeigner Talk/Contribs 16:10, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
