Nick Price (actor)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Sixteen year old who has had a few acting roles to date, though none seem particularly notable. The real problem is that searching on his name (which is difficult given that it's common, and he has the same name as a famous golfer) does not seem to be turning up any significant coverage in reliable sources (adding the word "dixie", from the title of perhaps his biggest film, weeds out a lot). He is young and it's quite possible he'll end up with bigger parts and clear notability, but for now I think he fails WP:GNG. Bigtimepeace | talk | contribs 07:16, 13 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep - there's info on him on imdb website. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1144504/ He's notable enough (Marinesuper (talk) 11:40, 13 February 2010 (UTC))
 * Just FYI, IMDB is not considered a reliable source, and simply having an entry there does not at all make one notable. You'd need evidence of coverage in reliable secondary sources in order to argue that he's "notable enough." --Bigtimepeace | talk | contribs 17:58, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Bigtimepeace', I don't know what else is a better source than . I'll have a look then and see if I can post some secondary sources. Just having a look at The Three Investigators and the Secret of Terror Castle, I'm starting to think that this should never have been considered for deletion. He has second billing as Peter Crenshaw. I'm also looking at the comments for the movie The Terror Castle Message Board, gooing on what I have seen as comments for other films that are considered mainstream with main stream "deemed to be very notable "actors, I think that this is an indication of notability. That's why I vote to Keep the article! (Marinesuper (talk) 08:52, 14 February 2010 (UTC))

 * Weak keep The article certainly needs cleanup and sourcing, but the kid's career seems to push at WP:ENT. To seperate him from the golfer, and using his name in connection with a project name, shows proper non-IMDB WP:Verification of his career and seems indicative of perhaps enough to improve the article... for instance, his name and "Because of Winn Dixie shows reviews that speak toward his perfromance. Article sure needs work though.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 20:18, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I saw those, but they don't really "speak toward his performance," they just mention that he's in the movie. In order to write an article, we need to be able to say something about him via sources, and I can't see this being anything more than a list of films a la IMDB. My argument for deletion is that he clearly fails WP:GNG, but even if we're talking WP:ENT I think it's clear he has not had "significant roles in multiple notable films" which is the only criteria there he could remotely be considered to pass. --Bigtimepeace | talk | contribs 20:56, 13 February 2010 (UTC)


 * No recommendation yet. The supporters of this article would be best off adding reliable independent sources to the article to help establish the subject's notability, which seems to be a judgment call. I can't say unequivocally yet that he is or isn't notable. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 20:38, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
 * With respects, those opining delete have no motivation to ever improve an article, and those opining a keep are then pressured (even if politely) to do the work that the delete opinions will not. We've seen this at AFD over and over and over... and I have myself improved a fair number of artcles that were sent to AFD so that they were soundly kept. Has guideline now changed? Is AFD indeed supposed to be used to force improvement? Isn't guideline supported opinion that an article is improvable enough? WP:HEY anyone?  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 20:57, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I think it makes sense for editors among the "keep" supporters to do the work of improving the article during AfD, since they are the ones who want the article to still be there after the AfD is over. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 21:08, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Couldn't find any significant coverage. Epbr123 (talk) 20:39, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. I read many of the Rotten Tomatoes reviews of Because of Winn-Dixie - only one even bothers to mention his name. He's on the verge, but not quite there yet IMO. Clarityfiend (talk) 05:31, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per Clarityfiend. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 05:06, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - we can't even verify his career or find any reliable sources. I think Imdb is OK, but having only one marginal source is not enough. Bearian (talk) 04:17, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
