Jerry Hoffmann

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article was created in German and listed at WP:Pages needing translation into English. I translated it and added a couple of references, but I can find very little about this actor, and he does not appear to have been in sufficient major productions to satisfy the specific notability criteria for actors. It should be noted that the article was created with two references about the forthcoming Grzimek film, but these are mere name checks (and misspell his last name 'Hofmann'), and that although both his online résumé and the article claim that his role in Shahada, Samir, was a major one, I can't find any independent mention of it or of his being in the film.

Hey, i reviewed your translated article. I can prove most of the facts. There is a problem about the not-mentioning in the movie shahada, cause he changed his screen name. Looking up his pictures jerry hoffmann is the same like jeremias acheampong! So, no need for deletion! Alisson335 16:18, 10 May 2014
 * An IP editor has claimed the same thing, but we need a 3rd-party reference saying that for him to be able to get credit for the film role (It seems "Samir" = "Sammi"?). Have you found one? Yngvadottir (talk) 14:56, 10 May 2014 (UTC)

There are many different credits that spell the name both 'samir' and 'sammi'. http://www.berlinale.de/external/de/filmarchiv/doku_pdf/20103879.pdf On the webpage of the movie they also call him both ways: http://www.shahada-der-film.de/info.html Just add the 'born Jeremias Acheampong' to make all the references clear and easy to connect to one actor.

 * Comment: That does have both Samir and Sammi, thanks! But can you find a reference to his having changed his professional name from the one credited there to Jerry Hoffmann? Yngvadottir (talk) 04:52, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

In 2013 he has been selected as a talent of the berlinale. They both present him under hoffmann and have a reference to 'shahada'. They are very selective and must have double checked, also shahada was premiered in their own competition. Also there are pictures mentioning both names http://www.zimbio.com/pictures/HORCu95LjOk/60th+Berlin+Film+Festival+Shahada+Premiere/Q9fWaQwu5OT/Jerry+Hoffmann http://www.zimbio.com/photos/Jerry+Hoffmann/60th+Berlin+Film+Festival+Shahada+Premiere/FzjVMlXQG45 http://www.zimbio.com/pictures/HORCu95LjOk/60th+Berlin+Film+Festival+Shahada+Premiere/Q9fWaQwu5OT/Jerry+Hoffmann (User talk:Prof Donald B) 23:12, 12 May 2014
