Non-notable actor. A single role in a small independent film, and an unverified appearance in a local production of a play that may or may not make it to Broadway. Too soon for this bio. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 13:07, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

considering you haven't even seen the movie Bluebird your argument is pure speculation. You have no idea what he does, how much he does, etc. In fact he is still in the movie at the end of the film in a very poignant scene. He is also noted as CREDITED in IMDB, actors who do not play a significant role are not credited, they appear as "rest of cast" -- by your 'assumption" if he were not important he would be "rest of cast" -- considering you havent seen the movie, your argument is mute and pure speculation. Since the movie premieres tonight, not enough media attention has been given and reviews and more information will be added as it appears in the press. Per Wiki " Comments should concentrate on facts that are verifiable from reliable sources." by your 'assumption" if he were not important he would be "rest of cast" -- considering you haven't seen the movie, your argument is based on your opinion as you do not know how significant his role is, you are guessing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.74.93.235 (talk) 14:44, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is correct -- my assumptions about Bard's role in the film are speculation because I have not seen the film. That is beside the point, however. The point is that there is no indication of any coverage of Bard in any reliable source. The sources mentioned in the Bluebird article do not mention Bard at all, nor does the UMaine article about Johnny Baseball. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 14:57, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Then by your argument IMDb is not credible? IMDb uses a system whereby significant roles are called "credited" any other type of role is rest of cast." You cant have one rule when it suits you then switch it when it does not facilitate your argument. This movie releases tonight, thus far all that is out there is what the publicity department has released. You are using your assumptions when you feel like it, then switching it up to something else when you point is refuted. Bottom line, you can't assume anything, citations and valid info has been provided to substantiate this page.

You say "non notable" as your argument for delietion, IMDb states otherwise, the rest is pure speculation on your part and "not wanting to be wrong."— Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.74.93.235 (talk) 14:57, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
