The result was speedy keep. I am withdrawing. Clearly this was a mistake on my part. Subject of this article passes WP:NACTOR. (non-admin closure) AleatoryPonderings (talk) 14:22, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to fail WP:NACTOR. Hits I can see are all to interviews (i.e., not independent sources). Doing my part to clean up the mess left by Lapablo (see this permalink) AleatoryPonderings (talk) 16:19, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep — Although I understand the community is currently grossly disappointed in Lapablo & rightfully so, but the subject of our discussion does satisfy WP:NACTOR as they have appeared in significant lead roles in movies & also satisfies WP:ANYBIO as they have won the best actor in a leading role at the most prestigious movie award in Africa, which is the AMVCA which is akin to winning an Oscar. Confirm here. Celestina007 (talk) 20:38, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks, Celestina007. I wasn't aware of how prestigious the Africa Magic Viewers' Choice Awards were. I'll close this once one more keep !vote arrives, as it looks like I made a mistake here. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 20:49, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

AleatoryPonderings, you aren’t to blame & your actions are justifiable as everyone is pissed at Lapablo, his tp is filled with speedy deletions which is relatively the normal response from the community in cases such as Lapablo’s. Celestina007 (talk) 20:53, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: per Celestina007. Subject passes both GNG and NACTOR. To buttress the point of Celestina007, here are some more sources across Uganda, Kenya, Ghana, SA, etc. that demonstrate the significance of AMVCA 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.HandsomeBoy (talk) 13:51, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
