Other than the one role, his family status and death, nothing here that meet the required notability guidelines.  Rusted AutoParts  (talk) 16:09 2 January 2011(UTC)

 * His death has been covered in Malaysia's largest English language newspapers, which suggests notability to me. But I'm not seeing much coverage of his career through the archives (this is one example of very limited coverage). --Mkativerata (talk) 01:09, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. Faizal appeared as a regular cast member in at least four popular television series. Therefore he satisfies WP:NACTOR ("has had significant roles in multiple television shows"). WWGB (talk) 05:41, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - per above Spiderone  10:03, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - This article is a stub... It can be completed, can't it. All books start with the first word... User:royalrec
 * Keep per WWGB - the multiple roles should be sufficient. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 16:26, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Notability not clearly established. They say he had appeared in a number of Malaysian television shows and proceed to list only three? Saying he appeared in "many" TV shows without sourcing it is OR. →  Bre  nd an  08:23, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Comments. (1) There are four shows listed, not three. (2) The word "many" does not appear in the article. WWGB (talk) 10:15, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Additional comment - Actually, stating he appeared in may shows without sourcing it isn't original research, it's making an unsourced statement. It may have been added based on personal knowledge, but that doesn't make it original research. -- Whpq (talk) 14:29, 7 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Okay, sorry, the word I meant to use was "numerous". Still, "numerous"=? 218.186.8.252 (talk) 12:06, 7 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep - Major newspapers don't bother with nobodies for obituaries that they create themselves. His passing was covered by the New Strait Times, and Malaysian Star, and I suspect that there is more coverage in non-English sources.  Note that the Malaysian Star article states that "[t]he actor had featured in the popular televison series Tiramisu and Manjalara", which would supports point 1 of WP:NACTOR as having significant roles in multiple notable works. -- Whpq (talk) 14:27, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
