Oops meant to do a xfd well this is what I put: Actor with no reliable sources at all as well as really no notable roles-outside of Horrible Bosses if that really counts here. Wgolf (talk) 22:43, 14 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep -- He's got 3 nontrival movies, ~~IMDB does count as a reference~~. -- IamM1rv (talk) 12:29, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@IamM1rv: The IMDb is not a reliable source, and it is specifically called out out in WP:RS as an example of a user-generated source. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 13:50, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Lol, I'm going to have to go back and have words with someone who misrepresented this after reading that again! -- IamM1rv (talk) 14:18, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep~~ Still, I was also told for common knowledge things that aren't disputed references weren't needed - like example - three major movies. Look at it this way ... are all actors notable, no. Are actors who made it into a major budget movie ... probably. What about 3 major budget movies? IamM1rv (talk) 15:17, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You can't vote twice-sorry. Also his other roles are pretty minor. Wgolf (talk) 15:20, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete. Simply being in three non-trivial, big-budget movies does not satisfy WP:NACTOR, which requires significant roles. If we're being really, really charitable, he has maybe a fraction of one, plus the TV series. Not enough, as shown by the lack of press coverage.

Exactly-might as well as include Peter Jacksons kids on Wikipedia if you would do that-they were in all the Lord of the Rings films and all the Hobbit films. Wgolf (talk) 21:21, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I've created an article for George Back at WikiPeeps So any editors interested in working on this content could go there. As far as notability in the Encyclopedic sense I think George is just another actor, talented at plying their trade but not notable. Bryce Carmony (talk) 02:44, 23 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
