He Saifei

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Has been in 10 films according to IMDB entry, but I am not sure that the films are themselves sufficiently notable (and therefore would give her notability that way). The article itself does not show sufficient notability, I think. Delete. --Nlu (talk) 17:14, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete 1 of the points that the article tried really hard to make is that the actress was in Ang Lee's Lust, Caution. Well, after doing some research, her role in the movie was minor at best. In the movie, she played as "萧太太" (Mrs. 萧), her total air time was less than 15mins. She is a regular Chinese actress, that's all. WP:N has not be established.

 * Keep. Her roles in Raise the Red Lantern and Temptress Moon are not minor. WP:N has be established. --Pengyanan (talk) 19:02, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Strong keep Her name appears in thousands of different headlines in Google News Search. . Prima facie evidence of non-trivial coverage in WP:RS required by WP:N.


 * And furthermore the nominator needs to review WP:BEFORE. Every time he finds a China-related WP:STUB that's not in his pet area of ancient Chinese history, he runs to AfD without being bothered to perform even the most cursory search for sources. Non-Chinese-speaking editors take it on good faith that because he speaks Chinese, he might have actually been bothered to look for sources in Chinese prior to AfD ... which clearly has not happened here or in dozens of other cases. cab (talk) 03:41, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep as per cab. Handschuh-talk to me 14:21, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Strong keep -- This nominator has consistently failed to perform due diligence and conduct proper web-searches prior to their nominations. See: Wang Jiancheng and Li Jianying.  Geo Swan (talk) 05:48, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
