Demetrius Grosse

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The most significant achievements Demetrius Grosse has accomplished are 12 episodes of Justified and 5 episodes of ER, aside from that, the other roles are minor. However, it appears that he is filming a new TV series and two news links cite January 11, 2013 as the release date, so it is possible Demetrius may gain attention for this, but the series will only have ten episodes so probably not. Google News archives provided links that are mostly TV episode announcements for his characters rather than content about Demetrius himself. However, this news article mentions he performed the opening monologue for a 2005 play, Passion Play. This Pittsburgh news article also shows he acted in a play, Black Angels Over Tuskegee, this past March. There is also another news article here mentioning another play, The Birthday Present 2050. Google Books provided nothing useful aside from this Who Was Who on Tv supporting his Heroes role. If users strongly believe his new TV series and these theatre roles are sufficient, I'll withdraw my nomination but I doubt there is much beyond a stub.

 * Delete - The nomination pretty much says it all. ST presented the best WP:GNG case for the topic, which established that the sourcing is not enough to meet WP:GNG. I found a mention in Pittsburgh Tribune Review March 24, 2005 and Pittsburgh Tribune Review February 23, 2005. He next appears in the news in 2008: Variety August 8, 2008. Then 2010: AP DataStream February 15, 2010. And last in 2012 Targeted News Service October 19, 2012. Not enough for a stand alone article. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 04:22, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep, but only if a couple of third party sources are added before this AfD closes. I'm inclined to think this actor has some minor notability and staying power. - MrX 01:29, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment - I took another look and still concluded that ST found the available source material and it does not add up to enough coverage from which to write a stand alone article. Having significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions under WP:NACTOR provides a likely presumption there is enough valid content to fill an article about the person per Notability (people). However, the significant effort to find that source material by SwisterTwister and myself shows that there is not enough valid content to fill an article about the person. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 08:39, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
