Bruce Locke

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I can find nothing to establish that Locke meets WP:NACTOR. He has, of course, arguably been prolific, but I don't think that alone establishes notability by this standard. The lone reference in the article is to Maltin's entry on Robocop 3: it does indeed mention Locke, but only his name. The most significant hits I could find were this mention in the New York Times about Locke's narration of a Murakami audiobook and this brief description of Locke's role in Robocop 3. The most recent non-trivial hit I can find is this, on Locke's role in The Man in the High Castle. He also apparently judged one or more Miss Seattle competitions.

WP:BEFORE also turned up some hits on a Burlington, Ontario–based film director also named Bruce Locke, but I assume these two people are different. Notability tagged since March 2009. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 21:50, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Per nom.  Also, has been tagged for notability for 11 years and still has only reference which appears to be a listings type work.     No content except for the list because there no coverage in sources to build it from. North8000 (talk) 01:04, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete There's nothing to show he has any notability as a martial artist or actor. He meets none of the criteria for either SNG (see WP:MANOTE and WP:NACTOR).  My search didn't find the significant and independent coverage I think qualifies as meeting WP:GNG.  Almost the entire article is a listing of shows he appeared in, but WP is not a place for keeping resumes. Papaursa (talk) 23:50, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
