Talk:Yumi Mizui

Finding Info

I was going to get around to creating redlink, so why not start with the top? Anyway, I ran into some road blocks. Firstly, Yumi Mizui on IMDb doesn't list her as being connected to Heroes in anyway, so I don't even know if that Yumi Mizui is the same Yumi who is connected to Heroes, anyway. There is also a Yumi listed at Memory Alpha, and I don't know if that is her, either. Her only mention on Wikipedia is on the Tales From The Dead page.

Additionally, the only picture I could find and confirm to be her is this one. Would it be acceptable to crop the picture to (mostly) only feature her, and then resize it?

Your thoughts? -- Lulu (talk) 15:05, 30 December 2007 (EST)

• I honestly have no idea if the Yumi Mizui at IMDb (which is the same one at Memory Alpha and in Tales from the Dead) is the same as Yumi Mizui. I feel like I once heard something about her being in Star Trek, but that might be because I looked her up on Memory Alpha once upon a time. I think for now, the article we have on Yumi is going to be pretty sparse, because I'm not sure whether the language coach is also the actress. I believe Greg Beeman talked about her in a couple different blog posts, but only under the name "Yumi". Let me dig up what I can find and I'll post back in a few minutes. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:12, 31 December 2007 (EST)
  • Eh, I can't find what I thought it was I once saw. However, I found another image of Yumi. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:20, 31 December 2007 (EST)
  • As best as I can tell from the translation of Kurando Mitsutake's blog, Yumi is also an actress. See this entry, and translate it using an online translation service like Babel Fish. It says (I think) that she's an actress. I'm still a bit shaky on this though. Let me see if I can dig some more. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:34, 31 December 2007 (EST)
  • Here's yet another picture of Yumi giving a peace sign. (Incidentally, this is what I remember reading on Greg's blog...not very enlightening, is it? Oh, and he calls her "Umi".) -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:38, 31 December 2007 (EST)
    • So should we play it safe and not include the IMDb information or take a leap of faith and assume it is her? -- Lulu (talk) 02:50, 1 January 2008 (EST)
      • Well, yeah, that's the $2 million question, isn't it? I would rather play it safe for now. She's not hard to find on IMDb if needed. I'm curious if anybody can find anything else about her, or somehow link the translator to the actress...even watching some of her work and seeing if she looks the same. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 02:53, 1 January 2008 (EST)
        • Crud, I attempted to write an article, and all I got was her image, cats and AKA= before I ran out of material. It's either red link or stub. Preference? -- Lulu (talk) 03:05, 1 January 2008 (EST)
          • Stub. (If you're feeling up to it, you can write an article about her acting experience and then comment it all out.) -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 03:13, 1 January 2008 (EST)
