Clara Lin

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Despite a number of searches around I cannot really see that Clara Lin is a person of note beyond winning something back in 2007. I realise that I am probably missing sources in Chinese, but I really can't see anything here to suggest notability and the sourcing is not really great. At face value, this is about an university student ten years ago who won a couple of contests. I see no article linked to on her on Chinese Wikipedia (deleted? never made?) and Googling for sources, for the variations on her name, isn't very helpful - there is a Clara Lin who is in science, but who probably isn't the same person, and a V&A blog which mentions a Clara Lin who works in a shop in Shanghai, but nothing really compelling. I can't really see a case for her having an article. Mabalu (talk) 16:22, 30 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete. zh:林彦伊 never existed, and that may be an indication that she's not notable although it isn't necessarily. I did some searching on 林彦伊 but from the little I can understand of the Google translation, there's not much coverage found. From all I can tell, she fails WP:GNG/WP:BASIC, the prize she won does not make her likely notable per WP:ANYBIO, and the article should be deleted per WP:DEL8. I am very willing to change my position, if someone fluent in Chinese can find a handful of good sources. — Sam Sailor 18:19, 31 January 2017 (UTC)

 * delete. I tried searching too, but found only social media sites and blogs, which might not even be about the same person. Nothing like a reliable source worth looking more closely at. Only 56 results which suggests a complete lack of notability.-- JohnBlackburne wordsdeeds 18:55, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Tried both languages and came up with nothing, but why is this included in "List of China-related discussions" when she is Singaporean? Timmyshin (talk) 02:26, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete I am unable to find any reliable sources in Singpaorean media as well. In addition, looking at the author's contributions Special:Contributions/Musicritic, there seems to be a COI here. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 09:17, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
