James Moye
Delete - This appears to be some sort of vanity page, which isn't even that flattering. 168.122.206.118 02:55, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Doesn't seem like a vanity page per say, looks more like the computer generated lists over at Googlism. Funny site, that.--Qirex 07:56, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Non-notable. utcursch | talk 11:25, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. No entry at IMDB (the "James Moye" there appears to be another actor), fails the test for inclusion. (Even if there were an entry for Moye there, this article would desperately need a cleanup.) -- llywrch 18:21, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep This guy is a stage actor is the reason he is not in IMDB. Getting cast in that number of successful and famous shows warrants inclusion methinks. Qaz  ( talk ) 05:13, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * After I looked on IMDB & cast my vote, I wondered that very thing -- however, I would expect that the original contributor would mention that he was a stage actor. And yet, if we accept that as a given, how do we then determine whether a theatre actor is worth including? Are these plays in New York, London, Chicago -- or some place like Cheyenne, Wyoming or Bend, Oregon? Has he performed in any companies that comply with the guidelines of Actors' Equity? (And if so, where can one find a database for all of these companies & plays -- there are none at the AE website.) Or are all of these plays he performed in community or high school plays? I'm looking for information here so I could be comfortable in accepting his entry in Wikipedia. I didn't find that information in the article, which is the reason for my vote. -- llywrch 23:11, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * "James Moye has added his name to a list of utterly non-notable actors, proving that vanity pages are vanity pages and that they will continue to be DELETED - Dottore So 06:06, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Article was tagged cleanup on May 16.  The only subsequent edits were an edit in August that put the article in its current wretched state and finally the addition of the AFD tag. Quale 23:02, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as unencyclopedic; the lack of reference to the names, places, dates, etc. of the productions makes it unverifiable. MCB 00:49, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
