 * Keep - article needs to be improved but from a notability stand-point the actor has had roles in several major Swedish productions. --BabbaQ (talk) 14:55, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep I have added various facts to the article, not only additional TV parts but also information on Myrberg's stage career where he has been reviewed several times (as an actor as well as a playwright) by Sweden's largest morning paper Dagens Nyheter. /FredrikT (talk) 15:04, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Notability is not WP:Inherited or temporary. Longevitydude (talk) 00:45, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I can't see that anyone above has argued that the article should be kept due to the fact that Myrberg has a couple of well-known relatives. In my opinion he is notable as an actor and a playwright in his own right. /FredrikT (talk) 07:22, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep FredrikT has added reviews that specifically address the subject's work. WP:GNG is met. No one has argued here that notability is inherited. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paperpencils (talk • contribs) 08:23, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Wrong, the nominator has argued that this is an issue of notability being inherited. He hasn't played a notable role in the short list of TV series. The TV productions mentioned that he had a stage career at don't have articles which shows they weren't notable either. It seems that he and his even less notable brother's only claim to fame is that their father acted in 45 films since 1957.  Even their father's article lacks a lasting impact that would warrant an encyclopedic entry. Longevitydude (talk) 17:48, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I understand what you're saying but for me it's a Keep on a technicality which is that there are sources that provide significant coverage of the subject. Let's agree to disagree. I have to point out, is it possible that you're misunderstanding WP:LASTING? It seems to me that it refers specifically to events and that for people, notability is not temporary. The reason why it seems this must be the case is that the vast majority of today's notable people will one day be found to be, for lack of a better term, has-beens. To give you an example, no one will be able to say that the "famous for being famous" celebrities of our day are going to have a "lasting impact" 100 years from now. Yet theyre notable today and they will be interesting to study for at least some people in the future. In the Wikipedia that you seem to envision, the dead will have to be removed to make place for new notable people in the same way that cemeteries clear out the bones from old plots. This isn't the Wikipedia project I support. It contradicts the promise beauty of this new era of cheap and near-free reproduction and preservation of information.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paperpencils (talk • contribs) 19:12, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
 * With respect, I'm not saying just anyone whose dead should be removed or even that just anyone who returns should be removed. There are many people from long ago who influence society today for the contributions they made to history. Fredrik Myrberg simply had small roles in a few TV shows. None of his contributions changed history or had a lasting impact. I don't question that he had a lasting impact on some people's lives, we all do, but he didn't influence history in a way that society as a whole either benefited or suffered from. Granted, you have a point concerning the LASTING guidelines as being about events instead of people, but this article still fails WP:NACTOR. You're more than welcome to address the NACTOR guideline from my below comment. I'm still learning how to use different guidelines in deletion discussions as this isn't something I've done very much of until very recently. Longevitydude (talk) 01:41, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
