David Bortolucci

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Minor actor, essentially sourceless bio ( one of them doesn't two of them don't even mention him). No sign of any significant roles, fame, or real-world impact. PROD tag added, but reverted without comment by User:Eagletrust -- his or her first and so far only edit. Calton | Talk 14:32, 5 September 2007 (UTC


 * This actor stars in a movie the great Leonadro Dicapiro produced that is yet to be released, and the word is the film is genius. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 35mm (talk • contribs) - — 35mm (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Delete sounds like this article exists to get "the word" out. Which is not what we are here for. Guy (Help!) 14:48, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - No signs of actual notability or good sources. It certainly doesn't help that the article has been edited by a high number of very focused or even single purpose accounts or that it in absence of a working courthousenews link it just draws attention at some stalk site out there.--Tikiwont 15:08, 5 September 2007 (UTC
 * Do Not Delete single purpose accounts are what built Wikipedia, however he is oblivious being discredited by a single individual with a purpose. IMDB confirms all his credits. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 35mm (talk • contribs) 15:24, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - The emphasis was on 'high number': I counted almost 10 SPA, many of them adding impressive detail for an allegedly secretive person and none a reliable source. Since we also have a policy regarding living persons and IMDB doesn't count as source there (only for the credits), I've trimmed the article accordingly. --Tikiwont 17:26, 5 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. From the WP:BIO section on actors: "With significant roles in notable films, television, stage performances, and other productions." Nothing in the article demonstrates his roles are significant, so he fails the notability hurdle. —C.Fred (talk) 16:18, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment IMDB Has him appearing in numerous commercial endorsements, including a superbowl commercial with Muhammad Ali

WP:BIO section on actors. It seems he defiantly meets that criteria —Preceding unsigned comment added by 35mm (talk • contribs) 20:17, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Extended Comment Also found this, It shows more criteria which is meet from WP:BIO section on actors http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1477868/publicity —Preceding unsigned comment added by 35mm (talk • contribs) 20:28, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Extended, Extented Comment Found this also www.davidbortolucci.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by 35mm (talk • contribs) 20:38, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Neither imdb nor the subject's personal website is a reliable source. Corvus cornix 20:58, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * That seems not even not the subject's personal site, but a highjacked one, mentioned above and implicitly also in the article before I removed it. And 35mm seems to be aware of this problem . --Tikiwont 21:27, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Most defiantly a highjacked site amongst many. Evidentially he is famous enough to have psycho-stalking fans. Never the less the bogus site directly shows notability, in his part by providing various images of him at different events. The disclaimer is a dead give away that there is no affiliation. Leave the poor guy alone people, its evident he has enough cyber problems already.

 * Delete - Not notable - one of the external links (tv.com) even states "his acting career has yet to take off." Hal peridol 22:22, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * That's because there are people like you trying to discredit him for some reason. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.99.247.214 (talk) 23:06, 5 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Actors and actresses-related deletions.   -- John Vandenberg 23:19, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Cut as non-notable. The credits on IMDb are mostly single episodes on TV shows; roles in the two 2007 films look to be minor. Clarityfiend 06:38, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
 * eh - seems just below or at the notability, but we have no reliable sources for it. --Rocksanddirt 21:06, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: Before deleting, someone ought to note all the various single-purpose accounts screwing around with the article: the article history until recently -- and even now -- looks like a battle of sockpuppets. --Calton | Talk 00:14, 9 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete - Bit part actor whose scenes seem to hit an awful lot of cutting room floors. --WebHamster 00:25, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
