List of Mission: Impossible guest stars (A–M)

I am also nominating the following related pages:

Lists of actors who played one-time characters on a show (admittedly some actors played several different one-time characters). Sourcing to tv.com doesn't help, and IMDb probably does a better job of this than any site on the web. Mission: Impossible (1966 TV series) relied in guest stars quite a bit, but is it sufficient for these lists to pass WP:LISTN? – sgeureka t•c 21:51, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Comment Articles for deletion/List of one-time The Simpsons characters was about a similar situation, except that it was in a character-played-by-actor format rather than actor-playing-character, and with some more plot details. Still, it ended with delete .– sgeureka t•c 22:01, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Another comment It appears the season articles of the show already do a fine job of linking to the guest actors: it provides better context, and if this AfD ends in deletion, nothing would get lost per se. – sgeureka t•c 23:17, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete These lists are indiscriminate collections of actors who only appeared in a few episodes. &#8213; Susmuffin Talk 22:06, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - As with the single-episode Simpsons characters AfD, I'll qualify this as a "sad delete". Ultimately, we need other sources to treat this subject as a group first, and I'm not seeing anything like that in my search. A few bits on specific guest stars, but not a list. Almost all of the content I'm seeing is in fact based on this very article. &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 22:52, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per Rhododendrites. There would need to be sources that treat these subject matters as a group, and since that does not exist, there is really nothing to support this article. Aoba47 (talk) 02:57, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete every one time appearance on the show does not need to be listed in directory form. There are 2 redlinks, and I do not have the patience to make sure all the links are to the right people.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:20, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:LISTN. Mdaniels5757 (talk) 13:52, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
