Matthew Linville

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Matthew Linville only really had one significant role, and the notability requirements for actors suggest that people need at least 2 significant roles in notable films or television shows. Even at that, Linville's role as "Jimmy Moon" in 7th Heaven is not significant enough to get him on the fairly long list of major characters on the article about 7th heaven. To make things worse, up until recently this was really a character summary masquerading as a biography. The only thing of any note that Linville has ever done is play a second tier character in a TV show, he is not notable. John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:52, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. One secondary role in a TV series and a scattering of other minor credits isn't enough to satisfy WP:NACTOR. Clarityfiend (talk) 00:27, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - Another minor child actor best known for one role accompanied by other minor work. After searching at Google News, I found one link. Most (child) actors don't start acting again unless it's to embark on a more serious level, but if he does act again or does anything else notable, I have no prejudice towards a future article.
