This article was deleted and then recreated two times before, [1] [2] but also fails WP:NACTOR, to reflect its general notability. --122.2.10.69 (talk) 13:57, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete his career still has not amounted to being notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:13, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral or weak delete his role as the title character in Hey Arnold: The Jungle Movie and as a recurring character in over 40 episodes of Desperate Housewives puts him at least in the grey area of WP:NACTOR criteria #1: Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions. Two is technically multiple but as one of the roles was "merely" a recurring character, not a main character, it doesn't push it out of the grey area into "obviously meets the criteria." Nothing of value would be lost if this were deleted without prejudice to un-deletion into Draft: space when his resume is a bit more solid or directly to the main encyclopedia if he is "obviously" notable, such as by being nominated for a major award. I don't think it would benefit from being moved to Draft: space right now, since the notability issue is not something that can be fixed by editing. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 18:34, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment if there is no other personal information like birth date, which is invalid/unsourced. --122.2.10.69 (talk) 22:33, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure what you are trying to say. I did find a source for his birth-date of June 25, 2002 in San Diego, California. I'm not sure if it is reliable, since it was copied from IMDB in 2014: [3]. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 01:14, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I found that reliable source [4] to reveal exactly his own age, so this is the last option you've looking for. --122.2.10.69 (talk) 04:58, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I should ask Denniss (talk · contribs) for that source reliability that provides year of birth? which is still unreliable. --122.2.10.69 (talk) 10:22, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Note This deletion discussion was created by a block-evading IP.-- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 18:11, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: It would be easy to close this as delete, but given the dubious circumstances around the nomination (i.e. block-evading IP), I'm going to relist this to get a broader set of opinions.
