Fails WP:BASIC with no in-depth secondary sources, just a short WP:NEWSPRIMARY interview describing him as someone who "may not be a household name (yet)". No suggestion that he meets the "significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows" of WP:NACTOR - article mentions no roles at all only his "acting debut" in an unclear role in a series which hasn't aired yet.

  • Delete It's simply TOOSOON for them. For reference, I believe the nominator was referencing this story with regard to his not-quite-yet fame. However, given that Feb 2016 has come and gone, and I can't find anything significant, maybe TOOSOON turned into MAYBENOT? Primefac (talk) 15:43, 25 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment As a note, there is a draft being worked on by the same creator (who has claimed on IRC to be paid for this venture), so I suggest we delete this post-haste and let them go through the proper AFC channels. Primefac (talk) 15:45, 25 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: definitely WP:TOOSOON as the programme doesn't air until June. Agree with Primefac, delete this article; the editor can work on the draft at leisure and submit it to AfC if and when it's ready. Richard3120 (talk) 20:18, 25 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete WP:TOOSOON as nothing has been released yet, there is plenty of time for an article after at least two prominent or well reported roles. Also, IMO paid editing shouldn't be allowed as it encourages non- neutral, promotional coverage and COI Atlantic306 (talk) 04:50, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
