 * Delete does not have adequate reliable secondary 3rd party indepth sourcing to justify an article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:09, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep The actor has 111 roles to date. He recurred on Scrubs; was recurring, then regular character on Cougar town (the actors who were main cast members in long-running shows are notable). Also was regular on 10 Items or Less. Among other shows he recurred on are Mixed-ish, The Middle, My Name is Earl. Appeared, among other films, in Star Trek, where he played a ship yard worker to whom Kirk gives (actually throws) the motorbike keys. This moment was featured in couple of trailers.

 * Just a comment. The number of roles does not matter; it's the quality of roles and RS that cover those roles. Literally every film role listed on the page isn't even a named character (ie: Stage Manager). --Kbabej (talk) 17:22, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
 * The quality of the roles is the matter of opinion, it's difficult to guess which one is more remarkable: minor role in a high-profile production, or supporting role in an indie film. The number of roles is a fact. My rationale was that there are several notable roles, and having over 100 roles adds up. Anyway, the actor has a few named roles in films, too.

 * Weak Keep: There's a very strong case for WP:NACTOR here, with long-running TV roles and several recurring roles, too. It also seems that a case for WP:GNG is being mounted. I'll have a look round and see what I can find, too. Dflaw4 (talk) 11:14, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Here are some sources, which aren't hugely in-depth, but they provide more than mere mentions: here, here, here and here. I think this is a good start for establishing WP:GNG. Dflaw4 (talk) 10:01, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Barkeep49 (talk) 17:02, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep easily passes WP:NACTOR with recurring roles in major productions. Lightburst (talk) 15:25, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
