Delete Blank Records with Duplicate IDs

Fred22
8 - Asteroid

I have an interesting use case. I need to delete blank records with duplicated IDs only if some of the records have data.

 

Example: If record 1 has 3 values in the name column and one is blank i need to delete the blank record. 

 

Example 2: If record 2 has 3 blank values in the name column I do not want to delete any records.

 

I only need to delete the blanks if the name column has data. If the name column is 100% blank then I keep it blank. If name column contains data I need to delete the blanks. 

 

Data is attached.

 

Thank you!
