This is a neutral nomination to address the concerns posed in a proposed deletion: "appears to be unnotable vanity article full of trivial information without any references or sources to mainstream publications indicating notability". Article restored on request. Your thoughts?   A rbitrarily 0   ( talk ) 03:16, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Wow. This article made me laugh. This thing is almost ridiculous enough to userfy, but not quite enough. This man is a non-notable voice actor and his page is a ridiculous unencyclopedic piece of vanity. Will you please explain some more of the circumstances surrounding the PROD? I see no reason this should be contested. Inter changeable | talk to me | what I've changed  03:29, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Articles deleted by proposed deletion are normally restored on request without discussion. It gives users a chance to contest 'posthumously', if you will.    A rbitrarily 0    ( talk ) 03:38, 2 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - While the article is poorly written and extremely out of date, those are not criteria for deletion. The lack of third-party coverage of the subject is, however. Other than IMDB and self-published sources, I find nothing out there about him. -- &#124;  Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  12:16, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. If there wasn't a meager Imdb page, I might have thought the article was a hoax.
 * KEEP While there are clearly so-called "facts" that are meant as jokes, the imdb page indicates that he wrote and produced some of David Blaine's television specials. It should be updated and stripped of the hoaxy material.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.173.101.53 (talk) 12:56, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - as an apparently self-written fluffball, although there really should be a legion of fame for such material where this could reside: "Trivia: Cannot ride a bicycle, nor can he drive an automobile, despite being licensed to do so in New York State....Known for his affinity for Dunkin' Donuts, especially their iced coffee and breakfast sandwiches (regardless of the time of day). Received two separate bite wounds to his head during two separate street fights in October 2004. Wears New Balance sneakers exclusively. Huge fan of MacGyver...."

 * Speedy delete - no actual assertion of notability. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  19:12, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Just performed some cleanup and removed the unsourced trivia from this BLP, as well as tagging the BLP itself for not being sourced. In searching, I do not find him meeting WP:GNG and his career fails WP:ENT and WP:CREATIVE.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 17:21, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
