I looked for WP:SECONDARY sources (not interviews!) which would satisfy WP:BASIC and I found very little. I don't see enough notability to keep the article. Binksternet (talk) 06:07, 21 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep: The nominator seems to quickly want this article deleted instead of letting other users find more sources on this actor and lacking patience. - FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 06:12, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Actually, I would be happy to see this biography improved to the point of it meeting Wikipedia's guidelines. Your 'keep' vote has no policy basis. Binksternet (talk) 15:22, 21 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep - Meets WP:ENTERTAINER; has had several roles and voice roles in notable series. And interviews are fine for reliable coverage. I suggest trouting the nominator for this nomination. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 06:30, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - He is one of the top people in anime and video voice acting, and a film actor, all of which is extensively documented on the web. The issue appears to be that the relevant cites have not been added to the article. VMS Mosaic (talk) 06:40, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - notable person as a voice actor and an on-screen actor. It also meets WP:ENTERTAINER. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 07:45, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep- Good coverage in primary sources, Since artist has been known for variety of the productions. Yes it might need more secondary sources, hopefully available elsewhere. A.Minkowiski_Lets t@lk 08:02, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep While WP:BASIC is the most general inclusion guideline for all biographies, it is not the only inclusion criteria depending to the field. In this case, as Bosch is an actor, he would also be applicable under the criteria of WP:ENTERTAINER. As Bosch has had significant roles in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Power Rangers Zeo, and Power Rangers Turbo and lead roles in the NA adaptation of Bleach, Trigun, Code Geass, Eureka Seven, and Wolf's Rain among others, so he very much fulfills the inclusion criteria in WP:ENTERTAINER. —Farix (t &#124; c) 15:11, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep This person passes WP:ENTERTAINER like the other slew of voice actors the nominator has sent to AFD today. Please stop adding new nominations.   D r e a m Focus  17:37, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - notable voice actor who was a Guest of Honor for Anime Expo in 2013. and if you need secondary sources instead of interviews you can use his convention profiles. -AngusWOOF (talk) 17:50, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - per WP:ENTERTAINER. Clearly (1) for having major roles in many anime dubs (Code Geass, Gurren Lagann, and others). --Lord Roem ~ (talk) 17:52, 21 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep As others have said passes WP:ENTERTAINER with major roles played for anime. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 22:08, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep Article does need attention, but JYB is clearly notable. Additional Sources:, . Esw01407 (talk) 17:37, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep Sigh. Per everything my fellow editors said above. It would appear the nominator is actually doing more harm than good in this case with all the recent AFDs. —KirtZ Message 11:34, 23 June 2014 (UTC)
