Biography of non-notable voice-actress is just a listing of her previous job. Wikipedia is not imdb. Abu badali (talk) 13:57, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong Keep Non-notable? Farm from it. The list of very notable things that she has done from the list on the article is amazing. Just Akira by itself makes her notable, but she's done .hack and Dynasty Warriors as well. Sure, the article can be expanded/improved, but she is DEFINITELY notable. --sumnjim talk with me·changes 14:21, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but add more actual content. She is the lead voice actress in a number of very notable shows. Shimaspawn 15:26, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Actors and actresses-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 15:08, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Anime and manga-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 15:09, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:BIO ("actors, comedians, opinion makers, models, and television personalities with significant roles in notable films, television, stage performances, and other productions"). JulesH 15:36, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep Even one or two such roles would be adequate, the article lists dozens of them. How this could be "non-notable" by any reasonable definition is baffling. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 16:01, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Is there any source from where we could expect to find biographical information on this person (beyond the trivial name/age/etc.)? --Abu badali (talk) 16:20, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Why do you think it's necessary for a biography written about this person. True it's one of the criteria per WP:BIO, however it's not the only criteria --sumnjim talk with me·changes 16:26, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Because without any such source, the article will always be a job-listing/curriculum-vitate, or have to rely on unreliable sources, or just use original research. As anencyclopedia, we can't write about something that nobody ever wrote about. --Abu badali (talk) 17:13, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Anime magazines would probably be one's best bet. There are also some interviews online as well. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 16:28, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    These interviews seem to contain good information. If these sites are considered reliable sources, this information should be added to the article. I would be happy to withdraw the nomination in this case. --Abu badali (talk) 17:15, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy keep, she's got a long list of notable credits to her name; I have no doubt whatsoever that she's notable, and I don't even watch anime. This article could use some biographical information and a few references, but by no means should it be deleted.

  • Speedy Keep per TenPoundHammer. JuJube 19:08, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
