 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was  — When weighing the two sides of the argument, I see the delete side presents a stronger reasoning citing little verifiability or reliable sources providing notability. While most of the keep arguments are along the lines of "I like him" made by SPAs. It's clear consensus is leaning towards delete. —[ DeadEyeArrow – Talk – Contribs ] 07:25, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete all his roles as listed by imdb are all when he was less than 5 years old, due to obvious limitations the role of a five year old is not going to be particularly notable. My search for RS to expand that article failed as well. - Icewedge (talk) 03:33, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Evan has also been credited as "Evan Loszlo" and has appeared in other productions not listed in IMDB. DollyD (talk) 07:42, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Deletefails notability and verifiability criteria without one single reliable 3rd party source showing up in 236Ghit or 21GNews hits. When "Evan Laszlo" is used in conjunction with play or stage even less comes up. Jasynnash2 (talk) 14:39, 21 July 2008 (UTC) Jasynnash2 based their comment on a single Google search, and should be disregarded.

 * Comment there are even less Ghits and GNews hits for "Evan Loszlo". If you can provide the reliable 3rd party references for either of these names please do so. Jasynnash2 (talk) 13:02, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Stong Keep Although only 13, he's pretty well known in Canada Canadian Actor Expert (talk) 07:20, 24 July 2008 (UTC) — Canadian Actor Expert (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. Jasynnash2 (talk) 10:24, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Jasynnash2 has based their entire frame of reference in this debate on the number of "GHits" encountered in a hastily conducted Google search. Anyone with knowledge of the Canadian theatrical scene would confirm that Evan is a rising young actor.  He is often credited with his full name (including middle name) in more recent roles since Leap Years, and including Puck Hogs Canadian Actor Expert (talk) 11:27, 24 July 2008 (UTC) —  Canadian Actor Expert (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Actually I have done a number of searches using not just google but, other search engines as well and searched using a large variety of information and combinations of words. Please do not continue to disparage me in this way and let's all address the issue at hand which is the article itself and the policies and guidelines of the project. If you wish to provide his middle name (which doesn't seem to be in the article) I'll do even more searches. Thank you. Jasynnash2 (talk) 11:43, 24 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep Apparent notable Canadian actor. Article needs much expansion and cleanup, especially of recent roles. DollyD (talk) 12:44, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete As per WP:V as the article references no reliable sources. The article can be recreated if notability and sources come up later. Jim Miller (talk) 13:30, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Reluctant delete. No reliable sources, and no source (reliable, or not) for his being the "star" of When Andrew Came Home.  IMDB doesn't even have him in the Cast Overview section, you have to go to the Full Cast.  Unless he's a named actor in something, and we can find a reliable source for that (IMDB is not generally considered reliable), he's got to go. &mdash; Arthur Rubin  (talk) 13:54, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Also, as an aside, if the editor who is busy removing tags from this article would instead find some starring roles, with sources for them, the article might be saved. &mdash; Arthur Rubin (talk) 13:54, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Stong Keep Evan has been featured in articles appearing in The Globe and Mail Replovandalate (talk) 22:22, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong delete Non-notable child actor with very few minor TV roles. In the upcoming film (not yet released) he doesn't even have a part as a named character.  He is listed as "Fat kid #2".  This is not notable.  Maybe if he progresses in his next film to "Fat kid #1" that might be notable.&mdash; G716  &lt;T·C&gt; 01:11, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Dude it's not true, He's not really credited as Fat Kid in the movie. Stagemom67 (talk) 02:20, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete It has been suggested that there was coverage in The Globe and Mail, but no reference has been provided and a search of their web site was sterile. Matchups 02:31, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
