Can't find any notability at all-and the Indonesian wiki is exactly the same as this one. Wgolf (talk) 17:50, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment - She's had several roles in TV and movies, though I don't know how large the roles were. I'm unsure why her article has no content.  From the history, it looks like it used to but it was unsourced so was all wiped out due to BLP concerns(?).  She was in Iris (TV series) for instance, which was very successful, but her part was fairly small.  Her roles are also listed on her Korean WP article.  So I think she probably passes notability requirements but it's a question of if anyone will ever improve the article. There are editors who specialize in translating from Korean WP, and this may be one of those (they usually have the stub tag I see on this one).  But Korean WP is really sketchy on sources in general, so sometimes we get articles without them.  Maybe that happened here.  Shinyang-i (talk) 08:07, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
 * comment-I tried finding the IMDB name, but such as the problem with quite a few Asian names, though where there are multiple people (well that's true for most-like John Smith well not that common) or alternate spellings, ect. Wgolf (talk) 16:31, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Ah yes, I feel your pain. When coupled with the multiple romanization methods, searching Korean names is a learned skill. :)  The birthday is helpful, as is the original name spelling (명지연), which give a lot of unambiguous results in Korean and in English-language fanwikis.  The latter are not RS, obviously, but can help point in the right direction.  IMDB is not, in my limited experience, very helpful, complete, or accurate when it comes to Korean actors, so I'm not shocked it didn't help you much.  I'll try to get some basic (& sourced) info on this article soon. Shinyang-i (talk) 00:53, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. Unless sources are presented, as written, this is nothing but an unreferenced BLP. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 02:48, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is no longer an unsourced BLP. I have added many of her roles, with several sources (all Korean) from reliable sources.  Information on the older roles is hard to find, although actually two of the sources on there list a number of her past roles and the roles are listed at technically-non-RS-but-unlikely-to-be-hugely-wrong sources like her Daum profile.  I think this is enough to get it off the list of unsourced BLPs. Shinyang-i (talk) 07:33, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
