Non notable actor. Article is merely a mirror of IMDb, with entirely minor roles. Cardiffbear88 (talk) 10:41, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete not even close to being a notable actor. Wikipedia is not supposed to be an IMDb mirror. Having one episode apprearances in shows is almost always a sign that someone is not notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:40, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: as not notable. An unsourced list-class article providing only a filmography. Otr500 (talk) 00:40, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep Weak Delete: I am voting "Weak Keep" because there may be coverage which merits a closer examination. I have applied to WP:RX to have the articles clipped and will provide them here as soon as possible. Dflaw4 (talk) 01:41, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment: Here are the articles: here, here and here. I presume they all refer to this Erick Weiss. Dflaw4 (talk) 13:35, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
 * You need to put the sources in the article, not just mention them here. You also need to show that they all refer to the same person, which you have not. Barring these actions being done we should still delete the page.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:00, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
 * John Pack Lambert, so long as the sources WP:NEXIST, they can save an article from deletion. However, having had the chance to view the articles myself, I am not sure that there is enough to save this article anyway. I will wait to see what other editors think, but I will likely downgrade my vote on this occasion. Dflaw4 (talk) 04:57, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment Even if the above sources can all be shown to refer to this person and are added to the article, we still have the fact that he lacks a significant role. Passing roles in TV shows or very minor roles in films do not constitute the significant roles we are looking for. Contrary to what some editors have assumed not everyone who had a credited role is notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:02, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Updating my vote above: The only source which really helps, of the three that I provided above, is the one which states that the subject is "top notch" in his multiple roles in a play, which doesn't really meet WP:GNG. There are other sources at newspapers.com, although I think they are probably of a similar nature—brief praise, but little in-depth coverage. In addition, even if we assume that the play referenced in the above source is notable, I don't think the subject quite scales WP:NACTOR—not with his film and television roles, anyway. Therefore, I am downgrading my vote to a "Weak Delete". (However, I would still encourage others to chime in on the sources I provided, because it might be that my analysis of my own sources is wrong.) Dflaw4 (talk) 08:54, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete as a non-notable actress. Utopes (talk / cont) 20:33, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
