Unable to find any coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject of this unsourced BLP. Admittedly, reading the article the subject certainly appears notable, two Best Supporting Actor awards, unfortunatley I am unable to verify that anything in the article is true.

 * I added a source to show this person is notable. Please avoid the deletion. Many actors and actresses from these regions do not have enough (or any) English sources coverage, even the more famous people. Benjwong (talk) 00:38, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment Seems notable from article, but lack of an entry on another wiki is telling. Disambig here - http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E9%99%B3%E5%9C%8B%E8%8F%AF - has no current actor with the name, only a Hong Kong politician and director. Google search for his Chinese name brings up half a million hits, but may just be a common name. Google images seems to have lots of pictures of him. I'd like to hear from a Singapore Chinese before I made a judgment on this one. Bienfuxia (talk) 02:19, 18 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete Agree with the "appears notable" comment, but without reliable, 3rd party verification confirming the claims I would have to lean towards delete. Additionally, if he won the Best Supporting Actor Star Awards twice in 1998 and 2000, how come he isn't listed on it's WP page as a recipient for that award category (admittedly, this not necessarily a good measure for inclusion)? Chen Guo Hua is listed as the recipient. 14:37, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Chen Guo Hua link redirects to Bryan Chan. After looking a little deeper it appears that Bryan Chen is the chosen English name for Chen Guo Hua. I am unable to find a reliable source to confirm this, but I can find content linking some of the content in the Bryan Chan article to Chen Guo Hua. Perhaps at least a redirect back to Chen Guo Hua.

 * Relisting comment: article is a BLP.  Jujutacular  talk 03:59, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep His name should be Chen Guo Hua, MediaCorp biography link, listing his 2 award wins for supporting actor. As he mainly act in chinese drama, english articles will be hard to find. --Xaiver0510 (talk) 09:53, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
