No evidence of any sources to indicate notability. Inappropriately sourced using just IMDB since 2007. Little chance of improvement in the future. Cardiffbear88 (talk) 18:27, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Could technically be BLP-prodded, since no sources are present. I did not find any, either. Promotional, to boot. Kleuske (talk) 18:34, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. A remnant of the old Wikipedia; clearly no other path but deletion. PK650 (talk) 07:11, 7 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep or Draftify: I'm obviously outvoted here—but I don't think this article is a lost cause. There are a lot of hits for the subject on newspapers.com, and I have found sources which give him some praise for his role in Amongst Friends:

→https://www.rollingstone.com/movies/movie-reviews/amongst-friends-103078/

→https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/style/longterm/movies/videos/amongstfriendsrhinson_a0a841.htm

→https://www.newspapers.com/clip/48116327/joseph-lindsey-philadelphia-inquirer/

I'm sure there are more; it's just going to require quite a bit of digging to find them. There are many more hits at the Internet Archive, too: https://archive.org/search.php?query=%22Joseph%20Lindsey%22&sin=TXT&and%5B%5D=subject%3A%22Motion+pictures%22. His role in Caught Up (film) could also go towards WP:NACTOR. In the event of a "delete" (which seems likely), I would suggest "draftifying" as a possible solution, because, as I say, I think there is more to be found on the subject.
