Alex Outhred

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Another old page (from 2005!) of someone with questionable notability. He has had only one role-though he did win a award for it making him seem like he might be notable (not sure how notable the award though is, it's not like any of the Oscars/Emmy/Grammy/Globe nominations/wins where they are notable just for being nominated) If not delete, a redirect to the film.

 * Redirect to Hammers Over the Anvil. Negligible sources that I could find, possibly deceased?, fails GNG / NACTOR.  Aoziwe (talk) 14:21, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep. AFI award (now AACTA Awards) winner. The major Australian film awards. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:30, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep as per WP:ANYBIO as winning a major national award as detailed above, the article needs improvement but this is a subject of encyclopedic interest, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 15:13, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Are you sure the award is "a well-known and significant award or honor". I had never heard of it until this article.  So far I cannot find a single secondary reliable source referring to the subject winning this award?  If you can point me in the direction of such I may consider reveiwing my !vote.

 * Keep WP:ENT the article needs development that I am not inclined to do. WP:NOTCLEANUP   Lubbad85   (☎) 21:40, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete unless AFI award can be verified. The award would be strong evidence of notability BUT that claim is (almost) completely unsourced. Have tried searching for RSS (one would assume a unique last name like Outhred would limit the number of irrelevant hits) but can't find any that verify the award, not even primary sources or blogs - only IMDB. AACTA archives mention neither Outhred nor the Young Actor Award (see 1992). It apparently does exist (Wikipedia has an article on it - which is also poorly sourced), but if it's not even included in the institute's own archives, can it really be considered a "notable award"?? Surely there should be online sources for something like this. If we can't even definitively pass WP:NEXIST, this has gotta be a delete. Yeti Hunter (talk) 00:14, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
 * UPDATE: Keep - Perhaps I could try clicking on the "Additional Awards" tab, rather thank just looking at feature films on the first page. Award is verified to AACTA/AFI archives 1992. Yeti Hunter (talk) 00:41, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
 * User:Aoziwe. Independent article from 1994 verifying Outhred's AFI win: Cinema Papers No. 101, October 1994, Film Reviews, Hammers Over the Anvil review by Fincina Hopgood beginning on page 66. Page 68, halfway down the middle column states "Outhred won the A.F.I Young Actor's award for his performance as Alan." . Cinema Papers No. 89 also verifies it . duffbeerforme (talk) 04:03, 2 May 2019 (UTC)
 * This is also a useful resource for finding things. duffbeerforme (talk) 04:16, 2 May 2019 (UTC)
