Curtis Scoon

fails WP:BIO. Those sources I can find indicate minor mentions in the context of something else; the fact that he was the co-producer in one episode of American Gangster doesn't pass WP:ENTERTAINER. Ironholds (talk) 00:37, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

Well the truth is he was the actual producer for the Shower Posse episode and a consultant for the Fat Cat episode in the debut season. The reason the last credit is not on IMDB is because season 3 was never released on DVD. Instead it airs on Biography network. Read the credits yourself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Trini Badjohn (talk • contribs) 00:46, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

Curtis Scoon worked all 3 seasons with American Gangster. He began as a consultant in season 1 and finished as a full producer in season 3. His name is in the credits of all. His contribution to Ethan Brown's book as a contributor and source is undeniable. He receives royalty payments from the book and is entitled to a percentage of any subsequent TV or movie projects. He's a published writer in Playboy and King Magazine. All of this while being being wrongfully suspected of a yet unsolved crime.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete. WP:ONEEVENT. His only notability is that he was a suspect in a celebrity murder. The producer credit isn't notable. Pburka (talk) 00:43, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

Mark David Chapman is in Wikipedia and "all" he did was kill John Lennon. The double standard is obvious. There are other such examples but what's the use, white makes right. Trini Badjohn (talk) 01:13, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
