Delete we do not have any reliable sources.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:53, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Would his page on Behind the Voice Actors help in the references? He also has an official website. --Rtkat3 (talk) 15:49, 25 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - Behind the Voice Actors is no more a reliable source than IMDb (it's generated by user submissions), and personal web-pages (especially by the subjects of article) are generally considered unreliable. –Ploni (talk)
Keep - Let this page stay. We can improve on the references if they are found. I do admit that he did have a gap in his career with Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir being a comeback role for him. --Rtkat3 (talk) 15:49, 25 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"We can add references if we find them" isn't a good rationale for keeping an article, especially given that this is a WP:BLP. If you can find good references and improve the article, then by all means, do so - but until that's done, "there might be sources out there" isn't a good rationale for keeping the article. Yes, we might find references/sources in the nebulous "someday," but we don't have them right now. Sleddog116 (talk) 16:23, 31 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This actor simply does not have significant coverage in reliable sources to merit inclusion, and even the claim to notability in the article itself is a bit sketchy - the "and other blockbusters" in the lead sentence made me chortle a bit, to be honest.

Delete, I couldn't find sufficient sources to pass WP:GNG. Suonii180 (talk) 12:51, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
