Talk:Danny Jacobs (actor)

Regarding the "notability" concern
I didn't create this article, but I think that might be notable. Danny Jacobs does provide the voice for a major character on a consistently highly rated cable TV show. He's also been involved in a number of acting projects, such as those listed here, albeit they are mostly minor roles.

Still, whether Jacobs is notable or not is not up to me or one individual alone. But regardless, this article on him as it is presently written does not contain enough information on the actor to validate notability – it is certainly in need of content. -- Sgt. R.K.

Be on the lookout for abuse on this article!
I have over the course of several weeks reverted additions of the BLP prod template to this article because this article, having been created before March 18, 2010, fails its usage criteria. Several editors have also reverted edits that have changed this article's text to be the same as that of Danny A. Jacobs, a completely different person. Overall, little has been added to this article since its creation beyond the necessary reverts to keep this article in order.

The questionable edits keep coming from newly registered "users" who are often found to be sockpuppets. Due to the constant changing of this article's subject and the BLP prod abuses it has suffered, I may be requesting semi-protection the next time either occurs, and I encourage other editors to be on the lookout. -- Sgt.

 * This is one of several dozen articles targeted by socks of Onelifefreak2007. In addition to edits to existing articles, numerous non-notable articles have been created. As a result, some of the articles this vandal has been created have been proded and/or sent to AfD, perhaps with a bit less caution than they are due. - SummerPhD (talk) 13:46, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

Danny Jacobs' father
On February 10, 2011, his father died. Proof is right on his Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/daniel.jacobs.9406417/photos/a.838794286218694/1526565937441522/?type=3&theater -- 2600:8800:3980:2550:6591:232:4EA8:85D0 (talk) 01:42, 21 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Facebook is of limited value as a source, because it is self-published. That said, how is the death of his father really that important to his life? —C.Fred (talk) 01:44, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

Well, when one loses someone they love, it is a vital part of their life as well, since that person they loved is no longer with them and holds an impact. -- 2600:8800:3980:2550:6591:232:4EA8:85D0 (talk) 01:45, 21 November 2018 (UTC)


 * However, such deaths are not routinely mentioned in articles, unless it has an impact on the person. —C.Fred (talk) 01:50, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

As in it drives them to make a documentary about them or something? -- 2600:8800:3980:2550:6591:232:4EA8:85D0 (talk) 01:55, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

I'm afraid I removed the reference to this before I saw this conversation. I don't think his father's death is relevant to his notability, or a particularly notable thing to record about anyone. Everyone has parents who die. Sad and very significant for them, of course, but unless there's a connection with other notable aspects of their life, not significant to Wikipedia. -- Escape Orbit  (Talk) 17:53, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

Very well. -- TrueLegend23 (talk) 01:46, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
 * So why did you again add it to the article, and follow it up with something about a cousin's death? Is this article to keep track on the lives of all his relatives?  Unless their deaths mean something to his notability or his work, it's irrelevant personal detail. -- Escape Orbit  (Talk) 17:09, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

I see that User:2600:8800:3980:2550:6838:e68c:9d19:6eee has again reverted to put the content in about Jacob's family members death, and hasn't provided anything to support its conclusion. Could they please remove it until there is consensus for its inclusion? -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 15:04, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

Contradictory dates
If Jacobs was only active until 2014, how did he appear in a 2016 movie? -- C.Fred (talk) 15:41, 22 November 2018 (UTC)

Could have been released after he was done being active in 2014? -- TrueLegend23 (talk) 00:29, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

Besides, that was what it said on allmovie.com. -- TrueLegend23 (talk) 00:48, 23 November 2018 (UTC)
