Non-notable actor who seems to have never made it above extra work. Ridernyc (talk) 01:11, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. The lone reference seems to imply that Mr. Wilbanks had something of a notable career in football. Maybe not up to our notability standards for college ball, but might add to the overall notability picture. I'm concerned about the different dates of death, though - and the lack of an obituary is telling as well. Not sure about this one. UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 15:22, 15 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep IMDB shows that Wilbanks appeared in 43 different movies and TV shows, and the roles he plays are significant. Clearly meets WP:CREATIVE. NJ Wine (talk) 04:34, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Which of those roles are "significant"? --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:49, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: I am concerned about our ability to verify the content of this article. There was a Don Wilbanks who lived from 1901-1984, from Oklahoma, and who served as a state legislator in the mid-1930s, but I don't see a link to prove its the Don Wilbanks who was an actor. IMDB puts the actor at a 1926 birthdate --- a rough educated guess is that we have a father/son issue here.--Milowent • hasspoken 15:50, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
