Minor actor, minor roles: I cannot find a single article discussing him in Google News. IMDB isn't enough--we don't doubt that he is an actor. Notability is another thing, and this is really a resume. Drmies (talk) 02:54, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Minor roles in notable shows don't make you notable, especially when they are one time appearences. Nor does appearing in 8 episodes out of 60 as "bartender". Fails WP:ENT Niteshift36 (talk) 03:10, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Hey, bartenders are important! Drmies (talk) 03:30, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

important no doubt, but notable....not so much. Niteshift36 (talk) 18:46, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I tweaked the article, but my search for sources was doomed due to the man's common name. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 04:06, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for trying, Michael. Drmies (talk) 04:22, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Doubtful this one is notable, hey, at least its not just an "I HATE UNSOURCED BLPS BECAUSE WIKIPEDIA WILL EXPLODE" discussion, but a rational AfD.--Milowent (talk) 04:29, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Sooooo...I can mark you down for a delete? ;) Drmies (talk) 05:10, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - But never as an unreferenced -- delete due to lack of notability. imdb is a reference, crappy as it may sometimes be.--Milowent (talk) 18:44, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - Right. Drmies (talk) 19:45, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as an unreferenced BLP. If the best you can come up with is IMDb (or a lookalike) then guess what, you've got nothing. JBsupreme (talk) 18:34, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep - barely notable actor, but a recurring role on a major TV show places him just over the bar (pun intended) IMHO. Bearian (talk) 21:18, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Niteshift36. PDCook (talk) 19:53, 29 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
