WP:BLP of a stunt performer and bit part actor, not referenced well enough to make him includable yet. Actors do not get an automatic free pass over WP:NACTOR just because the article lists roles -- if he doesn't have a strong distinction such as an Oscar or Emmy or CSA nomination, then the notability test he has to pass is not "has had roles", but "has received a WP:GNG-satisfying volume of reliable source coverage for the having of roles". But for sourcing, what we have here is a directory listing in Turner Classic Movies's IMDb substitute -- not a notability-assisting source, for the same reason that the real IMDb isn't -- and one newspaper article that's substantively enough about him to start counting for something. But it takes several pieces of reliable source coverage, not just one, before a person has enough reliable source coverage to pass GNG. So no prejudice against recreation in the future if and when his notability and sourceability jump to another level, but nothing here is enough in and of itself yet.

  • Weak delete I, with a heavy heart, say, for lack of notability as per WP:ARTIST. Clearly, WP:TOOSOON, ergo without prejudice. -The Gnome (talk) 12:09, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: does not meet WP:NACTOR as the roles are all minor. Under-sourced and my searches are not finding anything better. --K.e.coffman (talk) 05:28, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
