Seemingly unheard of prior to his death, unknown actor fails WP:NACTOR. Contested prod. WWGB (talk) 04:11, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I'm the creator of the article, and I agree with you. Nobody heard of him until the news of his death appeared, which includes me. The article is better off getting deleted anyway. MeAsAPerson (talk) 04:23, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: article creator (MeAsAPerson) has indicated that "article is better off getting deleted anyway". Quis separabit? 04:28, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: His only notability is a macabre death. He has no body of work which has attracted any plaudits or awards, and has no notability by association even, through appearing in any productions attracting critical acclaim. As a dead person, his article has nowhere to go bar backwards, by maybe filling in unremarkable details of his early life. Basing an article on an obituary is always a bad idea.

Delete: Only his death was notable. - Csurla (talk) 12:52, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say don't delete, just flesh his article out with his history, though his death was notable. - Hui lan zu (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 13:18, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- What history? WWGB (talk) 13:54, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: A Google search nets only articles regarding his death, with no prior information available. In other words, his only "claim to fame" is his unfortunate demise. He is best suited to Wikipedia as a bullet point on List of entertainers who died during a performance, not with his own page. Skudrafan1 (talk) 14:18, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Complete not notable. Not even worth mentioning at the Performance list. Non-notable actor, non-notable play, non-notable theater. Accidental death. — Wylie pedia 16:32, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
