Subject fails WP:GNG and has not had significant roles to meet WP:NACTOR. Source assessment is below. My WP:BEFORE search finds nothing better that could be used to establish notability. CNMall41 (talk) 04:01, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Source Assessment --CNMall41 (talk) 04:03, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
HITC, reference is from a writer who has a bio claiming to be an “experienced SEO writer” who has the job of “track[ing] down stories across different entertainment verticles” (sounds like someone hired to get clicks for the site. A few discussions at RSN about HITC but nothing conclusive for reliability.
Rotten Tomatoes, just a filmography similar to IMDb. Should never be used to show notability.
MUBI, never heard of this site but it is just the person’s name and link to a film.
Cine Serie, Same as above. Simple listing and nothing to be used for notability.
Ready Steady Cut, this is about the film JJ+E but only mentions Mustapha Aarab as playing a role, nothing in-depth about his career or personal life.
The Cinemaholic, same as above (Ready Steady Cut).
The Envoy Web, this mentions him as having a role in JJ+E and has an additional two sentences about him relocating from Sweded and acting in Beartown. Nothing in-depth.
Guild Baggen (Swedish), simple bio, nothing that could be used for notability.
Smorgasbord (Swedish), translating this shows it is nothing more than a funcruft blog (something similar to Networth sites). Very promotionally written and source does not appear reliable.
Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Actors and filmmakers, Morocco, and Sweden. CNMall41 (talk) 04:03, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails NACTOR and GNG. CNMall41 did an excellent job looking at sources. Mubi is a streaming service so it naturally has info about actors; I don't see a claim to notability. Chris Troutman (talk) 05:34, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Soft-deletion unlikely to 'stick' as a recently-created article, relisting to form clearer consensus.

Weak keep per above. Acted in JJ+E and a few other films, but otherwise does not appear to have a lot of credits. Batmanthe8th (talk) 19:12, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If a person has "acted in" (note that the page on JJ+E doesn't even list them as credited because the role must have been so minor) a few films but does not have a lot of credits, what makes them notable?--CNMall41 (talk) 21:31, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, his name is listed there!! And no, it's not a minor role, it's one of the lead roles in the film as all sources show (or just watch the film).... -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 18:40, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. 2 significant roles in notable films and received coverage. Meets WP:NACTOR.-My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 18:42, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
