Hani (singer)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I don't believe Hani is independently notable outside of EXID. She's in a few reality shows, but I think it's too soon for an individual article. WP:BAND states this: Note that members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability for activity independent of the band, such as solo releases. Singers and musicians who are only notable for participating in a reality television series may be redirected to an article about the series, until they have demonstrated they are independently notable.

Delete and redirect. The article's "filmography" section makes it looks like she's had acting roles in movies or TV shows, but they're actually all variety shows. As the nom said, that activity alone doesn't qualify a person as notable. The one source in the article isn't even about the show for which it's listed. A list of variety show appearances is the kind of thing that normally gets chopped out of band and singer articles, which would leave this article with zero content. There's nothing even to merge to EXID. Shinyang-i (talk)

There's nothing even to merge to EXID ? I disagree. Hani's name in Hangul, and other personal details. If she does not currently deserve a separate article, these things should at least be added to the EXID one. Gavin (talk) 09:29, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The hangul are already in the EXID article and wouldn't require a merge to be moved anyway. The only personal detail is her birthday, which is unreferenced and can't be kept. All the TV shows are unreferenced except one, so they wouldn't be kept, either, and as I said above, lists of variety show one-offs aren't appropriate for Wikipedia anyway. I'm going to drop you a note on your talk page with some suggestions for the EXID article, okay? :) Shinyang-i (talk) 11:49, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

To any admin who may be viewing this, A Style for You and Off to School are variety (reality) shows, not acting roles. I don't know what Crime Scene is. Shinyang-i (talk) 04:47, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete she mostly was guest in varitey shows in short time (NO DRAMA) and her activites is'nt notable outside her group ,delete or redirect to EXID (Pikhmikh (talk) 10:23, 31 March 2015 (UTC))[reply]

not short, not guest. she is main cast in many shows. She became famous also as a television personality now. Kanghuitari (talk) 02:20, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You keep missing the point. The question isn't "main cast" or not, the issue is the type of programs she's on. She's on variety (reality) shows - read the original nomination - it quotes WP:BAND where it says that isn't enough for a standalone article! Shinyang-i (talk) 04:47, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - In South Korea, she is notable as TV personality. We just need to add the contents. Bradley sniper (talk) 07:13, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
