The article last survived AfD in 2008, where the issue was neutrality issues. Since then, the issue has become less a lack of neutrality and more a crippling lack of usable sources, with Google being absolutely no help (strings: "Justin smith" american actor, "justin smith" actor man down, "justin smith" actor a good day to die hard, "justin smith" actor burn notice) due to hits in both general and news searches being unreliable or non-responsive, some of them being about Justice Smith instead. The article has never had particularly good sourcing (almost all IMDb, production companies, and/or Wikipedia), and at this point is non-compliant with BLP. BLPProd attempted and declined with the rationale that sources are in external links (said sources being the subject's own website and IMDb). —A little blue Bori v^_^v Takes a strong man to deny... 19:16, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete the subject's own website and IMDb are never enough to justify any article. We have a broken project because we failed to have even semi-reasonable notability standards in 2008.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:25, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Normally I would close as "delete" with 3 unanimous !votes to "delete" after a week, but since it's survived AfD before I am relisting to give more opportunity for discussion.

  • Delete Too promotional. He's been in movies, but how important were his parts? I can't see enough info from the article to prove notability. No citations only hurts the nomination. Oaktree b (talk) 03:51, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
