WP:BLP of a voice actor, not properly sourced as passing WP:NACTOR. As always, the notability criteria for actors is not automatically passed just because the article lists roles, and requires evidence of WP:GNG-worthy coverage about him and his performances in media -- but there's absolutely no GNG-worthy sourcing being shown here at all, and instead the article's only footnote is to a Q&A interview in which he's talking about himself on a podcast.
An ACTRA Award is also not an instant free pass over NACTOR or ANYBIO in and of itself -- it would be a perfectly acceptable notability claim in an article that was sourced properly, but as a regional award it's in no way "inherently" notable enough that he would be exempted from having to pass GNG just because the article has the word "award" in it.
So no prejudice against recreation in the future if and when he has a stronger notability claim and/or better sourcing, but nothing here is already enough now. Bearcat (talk) 16:12, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Does not pass WP:GNG or WP:NACTOR this way, can't even verify DOB from any BEFORE. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 21:07, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
