Ourei Harada (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Doesn't seem to be notable. Prodded and de-prodded. Picaroon 20:41, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

• Delete I see no assertion of notability. Not every performer qualifies for an article.--Anthony.bradbury 21:38, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Japan-related deletions. -- Neier 00:26, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
• Keep This is a popular gravure (bikini) idol in Japan and in the US. The article needs to be fleshed out, but I see no reason for deletion.Haddub 19:35, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

  If she is, good, then the article should be kept. But we need the text to say this and the sources to back that text up. Picaroon 02:05, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

• Keep Harada Ourei is a very notable gravure idol. Many products concerning her are available on J-list[1], cd-japan[2] and other websites where they sell extremely well. She has a proportionate amount of English speaking fans via the internet, which can be assumed from doing a google search on her name[3]. Many popular blogs have posted articles about her, like JapanSugoi [4].

On another note, this is my first edit. Ninja337 16:15, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Weak Keep The person in question, Ourei Harada, is indeed notable and has some media attention in Japan and some overseas countries. However, the article needs to source the notability claim! Poeloq 09:06, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

• Weak Keep - weird! (the things you read about at AfD....). Satisfies notability. Article does need some help though and was tagged early on. cheers, Casliber | talk | contribs 21:29, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
