1. This is a skirmish within an engagement. Neither primary nor secondary sources consider this material enough to be a battle in its own right. 2. This is written by an indefinitely suspended user with a history of adding essays to wikipedia. 3. It lacks SIGCOV in multiple RS necessary to meet WP:GNG. This is documented on the talk page for the article, and on the talk page of the Blockade of Wonsan article. This firefight is not described as a battle in its own right by reliable sources. It would be better to delete the page. Its one citation has been added to Blockade of Wonsan and the aftermath has already been cut and pasted into USS Pirate (AM-275), so merging has already taken place. 4. Given that this "battle" is not documented elsewhere, it is a new battle as theorised by the creator's original research. This battle honor is not recognized as such by the United States Navy. His creations have the prefix "Action of" and a suffix of the date in British English format, to emulate the manner/format in which certain battle honors of the Royal Navy were recorded from 1847 onwards.Keith H99 (talk) 10:22, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
- An AfD was created, to delete several of these fantasy articles. It got a bit messy, and this Korean War article did not get clearly addressed. Here is the link to the first nomination.

- Delete - All of this information is now part of the Blockade of Wonsan page so this page can be deleted. It will also make it easier to re-organise the template "Naval engagements of the Korean War (1950–1953) and post-armistice incidents". Gusfriend (talk) 04:06, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete as unnecessary fork of Blockade of Wonsan. Mztourist (talk) 09:34, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete -- No need for a redirect as the name is not a likely search term. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:51, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
