Article is created with a DAB to get around the creation protection at Sushil Pandey. References available in the article are brief mentions and interviews. The actor hasn't played any major roles to qualify for WP:NACTOR. Umakant Bhalerao (talk) 05:29, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@ Umakant Bhalerao Hey Umakant, from where have you checked that "The actor hasn't played any major roles to qualify" ?? I am feeling sad for your weak knowledge. You should try once again. The actor has played major roles in films like Article 15, Maharani, Mr. X, John Day, Jolly LLB and Jolly LLB 2.

Delete This is a close call, but based on WP:NACTOR and WP:GNG I'm going with delete. None of his roles in notable films were starring roles, which is how I'd interpret a "major role," not just a credited speaking role. The sources, while largely reliable, are still either passing mentions (failing SIGCOV) or interviews (which for notability are usually considered WP:PRIMARY and not independent). The fact that the article lacks quality independent sources makes the article seem WP:PROMO, which is why the salted article Sushil Pandey got deleted in the first place.

Weak Keep per the fact that he at least is getting reputable, reliable press, even if only for WP:INTERVIEWs or a single sentence per article; plus I disagree with Qwaiiplayer that his roles in Article 15, Mr. X and the Jolly LLB films weren't major roles, because otherwise, the Wikipedia articles on those films wouldn't list them as WP:FILMCAST doesn't allow any minor roles (with exceptions of cameos of notable celebrities) to be listed in cast sections. With that said, the evidence provided by the nominator and Qwaliplayer weakens the strength of my Keep vote. 👨x🐱 (talk) 23:09, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Does not meet WP:NACTOR as there is no evidence of playing significant roles (such as critical commentary about their performances). WP:FILMCAST has a far lower standard that tends to list any named and speaking roles. The coverage is not enough to meet GNG either. Ab207 (talk) 11:58, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
