No indication of notability per WP:MUSICBIO, WP:CREATIVE, or WP:NACTOR. Made one album which did not chart or receive signficant coverage, appeared in one low-notability film, was a radio DJ. No significant coverage online from WP:Reliable sources. Wikishovel (talk) 03:08, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

 * Appeared in two films, the first of which, as per the official Hong Kong Film Archive online catalogue (which lists her among the cast), won Best Screenplay at the 8th Hong Kong Film Awards. Her second film, a starring role, was screened as part of the 23rd Hong Kong International Film Festival (1999). Co-hosted radio programmes with Vivian Chow and 黃凱芹 in the late 80s. There is missing information on whether the album or any of its singles did or did not chart. Noveltykid (talk) 04:45, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

 * Leaning delete. Very sparse coverage, mostly nostalgic articles about 80s and 90s music in Hong Kong. It appears that the subject has been out of the limelight for about 20 years and has no intention of resuming her showbiz career. Deryck C. 17:30, 9 November 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep per Noveltykid above. --Andreas Philopater (talk) 00:04, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Can you please expand on that? How does Noveltykid's rationale show how the subject is notable per WP:GNG, WP:MUSICBIO, WP:CREATIVE, or WP:NACTOR? Wikishovel (talk) 04:53, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
 * She was a DJ on national radio, she had a supporting role in a major film and a lead role in a minor film (but still a genuine feature film production, with international funding, that didn't entirely sink without trace), and she released an EP that is still referenced on 90s nostalgia sites. It doesn't amount to overwhelming notability, but it's certainly enough to keep an article so that people wanting to find out more about her can look her up. --Andreas Philopater (talk) 11:11, 25 November 2016 (UTC)
 * When I say "a lead role in a minor film (but still a genuine feature film production, with international funding, that didn't entirely sink without trace)", I refer to her having top billing in Dreamtrips, both the final cut and the script of which are preserved in the Hong Kong Film Archive. --Andreas Philopater (talk) 11:24, 25 November 2016 (UTC)
