This was PRODded and deleted earlier, and rightly so, since this person hasn't done anything to make him individually notable per GNG and per NBAND. Every element of his career is related to his membership of NCT. Drmies ( talk) 15:18, 1 July 2017 (UTC) reply

  • I don't think the article should be deleted as the singer participated in a rap program as himself, a high school student, and not as a member of NCT. Also, he is one of the main casts in a new variety program. - CJojoC ( talk) 16:20, 1 July 2017 (UTC) reply
    • CJojoC, thank you for opening the discussion--what do you mean, "participated in"? Not every one who's on TV gets to have a Wikipedia article; it is necessary that someone pass the test, the WP:GNG. Can you cite reliable, secondary sources (not fan portals or company websites) that discuss the subject to such an extent that we can say the subject is of encyclopedic value? Merely being part of some variety show usually isn't enough... Drmies ( talk) 01:10, 2 July 2017 (UTC) reply
      • Drmies, Other than the interview he had for his appearance on High School Rapper [1], and other rappers acknowledging him and praising through their Twitter accounts, I couldn't find any other secondary sources. Most of the media attention was on him because of his membership of NCT. Thank you. - CJojoC ( talk) 18:58, 2 July 2017 (UTC) reply

  • Delete: Mark debuted like last year and so far he has done nothing important enough to create an own page for him. I'm a fan of his group that's why I can tell you that no member of the group is notable enough yet maybe with the exception of Doyoung. Doyoung has at least been a regular member on some shows and released songs besides his group activities but even he isn't really notable enough yet if you ask me. That's why the page should be deleted (redirected) till he has enough work to back up his own page.-- Thebestwinter ( talk) 22:26, 2 July 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to NCT (band), no adequate individual notability Snowflake91 ( talk) 12:34, 3 July 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect per above reasoning. On the same subject; I personally do not think any of the NCT (band) members are notable enough to require their own articles as of yet (perhaps with the exception of Ten (singer) although even then I am unsure). Abdotorg ( talk) 17:47, 4 July 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Delete and Redirect per Snowflake91 and Abdotorg. Tibbydibby ( talk) 17:51, 6 July 2017 (UTC) reply
