- Delete, although I would have expected more than 7 hits. -- Visviva 16:19, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
- And in fact a Google for the phrase "Roadmap to Korean" gives 1250 hits. But delete, anyway.-- Visviva 03:20, 24 July 2005 (UTC)

- Delete. Using my personal criterion: Amazon sales rank number < 200,000 = sufficiently notable. This book, ISBN 1565911873, has an amazon.com Sales Rank: #724,729 in Books. For comparison: Don Oberdorfer, The Two Koreas: A Contemporary History (Revised and Updated Edition), ISBN: 65051626, Amazon.com Sales Rank: #56,024 in Books. For a sense of what a rank of 724,729 probably means: I personally know of a book that has sold less than fifty copies which has a sales rank in the 700,000s.
