Delete: Czech-born Swedish actor of dubious notability. Quis separabit? 20:05, 29 November 2015 (UTC)  Quis separabit?  20:05, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep per sourced article, per notable roles in several films and series. He is also an established comedian. I do not see the dubious notability. Per WP:GNG and WP:ACTORS.--BabbaQ (talk) 21:15, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Uncertain perhaps as I notice this may be keepable and the best my searches found was only one Variety review at Books but I also weigh deleting because there's simply hardly much and it shows at his IMDb. Certainly this will need familiar Swedish attention so perhaps and  can help here?  SwisterTwister   talk  07:33, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete as not notable. I did look at it, and thought it was marginal both in interest and notability. However, since you ask, there are a couple of brief passing mentions in Norran, a regional newspaper. There's another brief mention in Eskilstuna Kurir, a local paper. Even briefer in VLT. None of these are substantial enough to confer notability, and most of the publications are frankly minor. At best this is WP:TOOSOON. The sources in the article don't add up to much either (Sveriges Radio only mention him in a list of "they also took part"), though the TV appearance probably counts towards notability. It isn't enough. Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:34, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Strong keep Has appeared in many famous Swedish films and TV series. J 1982 (talk) 14:22, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
 * @J 1982: As an extra or what? Is that your opinion, or can you prove it with reliable sources? If he's famous he ought to be appearing in newspapers and so on, which he isn't. Can you provide references for major roles he has played? Chiswick Chap (talk) 14:46, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
 * user J 1982 is right. AfD is not a clean-up service or a tool for making a article better. It is purely for establishing notability or not. Clearly this actor has had important roles. Improvements and expansions can be done. But not by request upon AfD. Period. This article covers WP:GNG. Period.--BabbaQ (talk) 20:54, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
 * BabbaQ: We aren't asking for cleanup, but for deletion on grounds of failing notability, so blustering rhetoric "(. Period. ... Period.)" is way off-beam. If you believe the subject meets the GNG then all you have to do is to provide sources. I had a serious look in the usual places and couldn't find them; if you know of some, now is the time to produce them and I'll happily change my mind. Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:17, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Why is the deletion !votes then referring to the articles quality instead of notability?. --BabbaQ (talk) 18:24, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
 * I thought I'd been pretty clear on the matter, but am happy to state plainly that as it stands I have been unable to find proof of notability, and nor it seems has anyone else. I listed what I could find above, and it's not nearly enough. If you can find more, I'll be listening. Chiswick Chap (talk) 20:23, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep as this fellow seems to have ample film credits and other work. I see potential for 10x or more expansion to this article if the right fan/editor or Swedish film expert contributes to the article. --♥Golf (talk) 02:32, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
 * He seems to have appeared almost exclusively in minor roles. But if not appearing in newspapers or magazines anywhere in Scandinavia or elsewhere in the world confers notability nowadays, I'm happy to go along with the consensus. Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:13, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Do you honestly have to comment snarky at everyone. It becomes obnoxious and makes no difference to the end result in either way.--BabbaQ (talk) 09:18, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
