WP:BLP of an actor and news anchor, not properly referenced as passing our inclusion criteria for either actors or journalists. As always, people are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they have jobs -- the notability test hinges on evidence of distinction, such as notable awards and/or the reception of third party reliable source coverage analyzing the significance of their work. But the notability claim here, for both acting and journalism, is simply that he and his work exist, and the only footnote is the self-published personal website of the director of a film he was in, which is not notability-supporting media coverage. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have considerably better referencing than this. (Also, the article was recreated just three months after the first AFD discussion, by an editor who stated in their own edit summary that they were personally "helping" him to get a Wikipedia article — which means that it also violated our conflict of interest rules, and really should have been speedy deleted four years ago as a recreation of deleted content.)

Delete-- as per nominator. Poor media coverage, fails to meet criteria. COI and recreation are also a bit suspicious.--Melaleuca alternifolia | talk 19:20, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
