I've done some reasonable investigation online for reliable sources that would support notability for the voice actor who is the subject of this article, but have failed to find anything. I believe this is a controversial nomination owing to the passion that some editors might have over the work of this voice actor. I believe there is sufficient information to support some of the voice acting instances, but these should be placed in the respective work articles and do not contribute to notability of this voice actor in the context of Wikipedia. I am further feeling pressure to nominate this as a part of reducing the overall heft of the thousands of un-referenced living person biographies. I hope editors can find material to be able to retain the article. Regards. User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 01:49, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Generally speaking, i don't consider somewhat prolific voice actors/ charactor actors like Aaron Krohn to be particularly notable. While Krohn actually has a ton of dubbing roles from his days at ADV Films, with more than a few being lead roles; he's left behind dubbing for a couple decades and isn't well-remembered by the English-speaking anime community today. I do have arguments against this page's deletion, but if they're rejected i still understand. The main thing is there is a lot of incorrect/ misleading/ unverified/ biased info floating around online for public figures, especially on IMDb. I figure a Wikipedia article could provide a place to put accurate sources for his career and the careers of others.

As a side note, is there a place on this website to post ideas for Wikimedia Foundation features and similar things? Starbeam2 (talk) 02:57, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. All I managed to find about the subject were trivial mentions. While he has been involved in the production of many shows, there does not seem to be much in-depth coverage of him. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 20:49, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment @Jack4576: WP:NACTOR starts with the premise that the actor meets the general notability guideline; it supplements but does not supplant, unfortunately. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 12:08, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
