 * delete, no RS, article is an advert. --Tagishsimon (talk) 01:40, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete non-notable actor. Plus as a minor we should insist on very clear coverage in reliable sources, because we need to respect minor's privacy more than that of adults.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:25, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as BLP hazard, warn creator this is an almost-entirely uncited BLP of a minor - David Gerard (talk) 14:30, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
 * I noted this article on WP:BLPN - David Gerard (talk) 15:46, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per all above. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 15:59, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. Actor has been the centre of multiple news headlines. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FilmLover2016 (talk • contribs) 19:29, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't see "multiple" news headlines cited in this article, though. At most, I see one, and that article doesn't mention his acting career which is his supposed claim to notability. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 19:55, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. Nothing here is a substantive claim to passing WP:CREATIVE, and the sourcing doesn't even approach getting him over WP:GNG in lieu — there's one source here that represents media coverage about him, rather than a self-published primary source, but (a) it says nothing about him that would constitute a reason why a person gets an encyclopedia article, covering him only in the context of a single social media post he once made about Taylor Swift, and (b) one piece of media coverage is not enough to make a person "notable for nothing in particular just because media coverage exists". We are not a free public relations platform for YouTubers, and as correctly noted above we have to be extremely careful for WP:BLPPRIVACY reasons when the article subject is a minor.
