Fails WP:BASIC and WP:ENT. Of the references currently in the article: I looked for additional sources and found only trivial or promotional coverage: this in a Jeffrey Escoffier book, this in the Sun-Sentinel, a small handful of mentions in back issues of the Bay Area Reporter, this in the Advocate, etc. Cheers, gnu 57 05:00, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
 * 1 is from XXX Showcase, a pornography magazine. I don't have access but would guess that it's an interview.
 * 2 is a (somewhat fluffy) profile associated with Mr. Donovan's induction into the GayVN Hall of Fame. Please note that porn industry awards no longer count towards anything now that PORNBIO has been deprecated.
 * 3 and 4 (AVN) are very obvious press releases; the former mentions him only in passing.
 * The external links are a deadlinked pornography website, an award roster for another porn industry award, and some user-generated database listings.

 * Delete very clearly does not meet our notability guidelines for pornographic actors. The analysis above shows clearly why he is not notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:15, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
