Delete This is a minor actor with no notability. The article gives no sources except IMDb. Most of his television work consisted of individual appearances in single episodes of series. Extensive searching has failed to produce a single example of a reliable independent source giving significant coverage. Mostly there are entries in listing sites, passing mentions in articles about other people, etc. There is even at least one source which indicates a lack of notability: http://www.zetaminor.com/dvd/dvdreviews/star_cops.htm says "Apart from a brief appearance in Supergirl, and guest spots in The New Statesman, Casualty and Stay Lucky, Evans film and TV career didn’t amount to much". That is the longest of three sentences mentioning Evans in that page. JamesBWatson (talk) 07:32, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Star Cops#Principal characters, where this actor is already mentioned and sourcable. The stubby article size aside, his career was starting to nudge WP:ENT before his death,[1] and he does have some coverage for his earlier stage work.[2] I think his name is a suitable search term, and as a redirect will send readers to where he has whatever notability he might.

Delete. Very minor actor. No substantial coverage. Clearly fails WP:ENT. Christopher Connor (talk) 01:09, 12 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
