Hari Krishnan (actor)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No significant coverage in independent reliable sources and no evidence that actor has played a major role in any film listed in the article. I may be looking in the wrong places, but a Google search for "Hari Krishnan" found nothing that establishes notability. Appear to be a case of WP:TOOSOON.

 * There are few exclusive interviews sourced in the article. He has also been credited as "Hari" in films, I guess. Madras and Kabali are his notable films. Editor 2050 (talk) 14:44, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Per WP:IV interviews are not generally considered useful for notability, as they are not independent of the subject. I tried but can’t find a single reliable source that talk about his role in either Madras or Kabali and I hope you are not mixing him with Kalaiyarasan Harikrishnan who played Tamizh Kumaran in Kabali also go with same name Harikrishnan.

 * Weak keep WP:IV is an essay not a policy, AFD is continually recognising interviews as notable sources where they are in reliable sources with a reputation for fact checking and also when they contain straight prose as well as an interview. Regarding WP:NACTOR he has third billing in an upcoming film and some fifth billings in released films which are reasonably prominent.Atlantic306 (talk) 15:28, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. Of course, I'm aware - I watch Tamil films. Sources aren't as freely available for supporting actors as they are in the Western World - but I have attempted to include as many as possible here.

 * Delete- At best he is a supporting actor with no work that has been notable, In my opinion until he does more prominent work this page is TOOSOON.  FITINDIA   18:36, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
