Although Ms. Dorian appears to be a talented actress with an interesting career, her work does not meet WP:NACTOR or WP:GNG. Here's the only profile I found: [1]. Snippet view of a 1977 review: [2] gnu57 21:29, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete We need to stop Wikipedia being an IMDb mirror.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:49, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment A very quick, very dirty, search of google pops up that she sued IMDB over publishing her actual birthdate, but it didn't look like a reliable source. Maybe it would be worth someone's time to look further into that (since it is the sort of thing that news organizations tend to grab and run with).

    @Rockphed: I believe you may be incorrect: someone with the username "Joanne Dorian" (presumably this person) commented on a news story about Junie Hoang, the actress who sued IMDB.[3] Hoang and Dorian are different people, and Dorian's internet comments don't make her notable.

  • Delete: Her bio is at http://www.articulatetheatre.com/come-page---dorian_joanne.html but the leads there aren't proving useful. She does not appear at iobdb.com, and her appearances at ibdb.com don't meet the bar. Her film roles appear to all be side characters. I can't see that she meets NCREATIVE/GNG, but there's a possibility of better critical coverage offline given her long career. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 11:49, 5 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: A more focused search turns up 0 results at TVguide. Looking through the productions listed in her self-published bio on the internet, her "starring" role in One Life to Live yields a single Florida newspaper that doesn't look like it talks about her very much[4], and a new york times review[5] of a horror film she supposedly co-starred in where the reviewer only noted her name in listing the named characters (she apparently didn't think her a major character). I think even if we had enough material to write about why she left One Life to Live, it would be more appropriate to put that material in that article since it is her only major role.

  • Comment I have just started looking for sources. Her profile, which Hydronium Hydroxide linked to above, certainly suggests that she has had significant roles in multiple notable productions. I will !vote when I've found more sources that help determine what her roles were, and if the productions were notable. RebeccaGreen (talk) 10:55, 8 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
