Unref blp. Doesn't appear to meet WP:BIO / WP:GNG. Boleyn (talk) 15:01, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete unsourced BLP fails WP:NACTOR/WP:NBASIC/WP:GNG. At least two accounts and probably 1 or more anon editors appear to be the subject. Although IMDB is a junk source and probably also self edited the list is for small parts often un-credited. The article claims "Arguably the most well-known movies Gaines appeared in were The Last Hunter" which IMDB lists as "Deserter(uncredited)". I can't find any indication of any nobility.

 * Delete as Wikipedia doesn't allow biographies of living people that don't cite any reliable sources. Everyone has been trying to look for sources such as newspaper or magazine articles about James Gaines, but we aren't finding any. (And no, we can't really cite IMDb as a source, either.)

 * Delete I'm getting unrelated James Gaines even when using Philippines as a modifier in GNews Archives. He has a mention in this book but that's about it in my GBooks search. -- Lenticel ( talk ) 00:20, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete agreeing with the above opinions - merely being in a number of films is not innately notable. There are no apparent references to establish notability, including in book searches. IMDb is a reference source for facts but does not establish notability.WmLawson (talk) 03:19, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
