Survey Comments

 * I would probably PROD or AFD it. If the result of either was "keep", move it to Nick Swoboda and make this page into a redirect to the page about the show.
 * Depends on article title. If it's Avatar The Last Airbender, then check for vandalism/good faith removal of content. If it's Nick Swoboda then prod/afd
 * I would decline and add a reference or two. If I had time, I'd expand it myself.
 * Context established and notability asserted. Crap article but not speedy-able.
 * Actors tend to have some fanbase, and I'm cautious about deleting them without rationale
 * I'd clean up; if someone felt strongly that this should be deleted, since it identifies the subject and contains a claim of notability, full discussion should be held.
 * Should be redirected to ATLA page. Is blatantly not deletable under A1; only A7 could possibly apply.
 * Would search for refs; if he only appeared in one episode with one line, would probably prod or AFD
 * Spokane ftw! Anyway, it makes at least some semblance of an attempt at a notability rationale, so it's got to go to AfD or PROD
 * would check history for this page ?vandalism
 * The rationale is weak, but it passes.
 * I'd take a look to see if Swoboda is just an extra, and if he was, then PROD. Otherwise not a speedy.
 * Keep/AfD, or even speedy redirect are best.
 * Depends on the roles: check IDMb. If significant, keep. If not, A7
 * Possibly a snow AFD, but not a speedy
 * Possibly notable. AfD if no significant sources on Google. Consensus needs to be gained on whether he passes the subjective WP:ENTERTAINER criteria.
 * A1 doesn't apply; the article is short, but there's plenty of context. Probably not notable, but being an actor on a Nickelodeon show is a good enough assertion.
 * If this is an article on the program then would just edit the article, otherwise if on person would either tag or prod
 * You really should fix the spelling of "ratioinale" throughout

Balloonman's analysis
A1 is clearly incorrect. There is enough information to identify Nick Swoboda as an actor on Avatar the Last Airbender.

It could be argued that it passes A7 because it makes a claim to importance/significance via his role in Avatar. I'm not sure that it does. The article does not make a claim that Nick Swoboda is notable, but rather that he played a role on a notable TV series. His role amounted to two episodes and based upon the claims currently in the article, it fails BIO/N/entertainer. Thus, I would not complain if somebody deleted this article A7.

I would PROD this as failing to meet WP:entertainer, WP:N, and WP:BIO. Give the author a chance to save the article.
