Delete Non-notable actor. TH1980 (talk) 01:38, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The subject has been a prolific entertainer since the 1980s. The SF Weekly covered Brandon's career and falling back into illicit substance use here, where they called him "a beloved San Franciscan gay porn icon". They then covered Brandon vowing to make a comeback afterward (here). He was the executive director of the Community Initiative in San Francisco (here). The Dallas Voice did a profile on him here. They covered a career pivot here. A resort named a suite after him, which was the first time a resort had done that for a gay porn performer (here). --Kbabej (talk) 09:07, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Which sources are you referring to? There is a lot of references in the last AfD. Christian75 (talk) 15:13, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Christian75, I was confused about that as well. There are multiple RS currently in the article, and I’ve pointed out more above. Currently used are: SF Weekly, Dallas Voice, and San Francisco Bay Times. Also AVN, which is a green-level RS at WP:RSP. —Kbabej (talk) 15:19, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Kbabej. GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 21:51, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
