Non-notable career. No evidence plays were ever produced. Book not in WorldCat. As actor, roles in minor productions, mostly bit parts, with more impt parts only in some local school productions. Contributor deprodded the article, so it has to come here. DGG ( talk ) 00:28, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as insufficiently notable per the WP:GNG. No evidence this person has "received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." — Satori Son 01:08, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Keep per WP:CREATIVE and the verifiability that this author's works have been the recipents of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews. While helpful, The GNG is not the final arbiter of notability. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 05:58, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Struck, Was looking at wrong Christopher Morris. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 09:05, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. No independent evidence of notability, and to judge by an e-mail I received, almost certainly an autobio. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 09:21, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment Christopher Morris' bio on his official website states that as an actor, his Actor's Equity (stage name) is "Christopher Nichol". As "Christopher Morris", he fails WP:AUTHOR. But under his stage name he might meet WP:ENT [1] More searching to do. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 09:05, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Armed with his working name, I was able to go through the article and give it a sandblasting and expansion.[2] He's a working actor, and though fixing up the article was good practice, I found nothing that would show notability. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 10:08, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
