Basil White

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Second nomination. Result of first was deletion, and I do not see much reason this time around for the result to be any different. He has contributed to several joke books, but as one contributor among many, that does not make him notable, nor does playing the role of "Witness" on a television series.

 * Delete. He hasn't written a book. He has an album, but it's given away free so it can't be on a real label. His three film/TV roles are "refugee", "witness" and "bartender". No evidence of third party writeups. There's no there there. Herostratus 03:20, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. I hear him every now and then on XM Comedy. Stevetursi 20:53, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

 * I have no references, but I can tell you that I've personally heard him on XM multiple times. When I wanted more information on him, Wikipedia was the first place I came. At any rate, it seems to me that if XM thought he was notable enough to put him on their finite amount of air, we should think that he's notable enough for Wikipedia, so I was surprised to see that people want this article deleted.

 * Weak delete unless credible reviews come to light. Google News archives indicates there are a few leads that could be followed to bring this article up to scratch.  Note that the entries in the books section of Basil White are probably copyvio's. John Vandenberg 03:25, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Only minor notability in small circles. Stevetursi, please give us some references to consider. Arbustoo 05:34, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
