Unfortunately notability is not inherited, having famous friends does not make one notable. Not enough in-depth coverage about them to meet WP:GNG, and does not meet either WP:ENTERTAINER or WP:NACTOR.  Onel 5969  TT me 15:38, 22 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep - His friendship with Dusty Springfield is interesting but while notability isn't inherited, I'd argue he has lots of notable and impressive credits by himself. Appeared twice on "The Ed Sullivan Show". Has Broadway credit - Appeared on Broadway in the original cast recording of "Evita"! Roles in several major notable movies and productions - "Man of La Mancha", "Intimate Games", "Peter Pan", "The Pirates of Penzance", "Doctor Who - The Trial of a Time Lord" (First Vervoid!), "Follies". These may not have been lead roles, but it all adds up to WP:GNG at the very least, and should be enough for other requirements too, and the "Doctor Who" stuff plus Broadway/musicals almost definitely gives him some cult status from those respective fandoms too. -- HistoricalAccountings (talk) 00:28, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
 * "These may not have been lead roles" - so did he have a single lead role in his known career? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 03:40, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
 * It doesn't look like acting was his main thing, just one element of his career. According to his bio, he was a dancer, entertainer, songwriter, composer, actor, and circus performer. -- HistoricalAccountings (talk) 07:58, 7 March 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Weak Keep Based on WP:Basic #2. Was notable at the time as multiple minor coverage shows. Added further in line refs. Davidstewartharvey (talk) 23:01, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep As per David fullfills WP:BASIC. Cuoxo (talk) 19:02, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Blocked for UPE, sockpuppetry. MER-C 18:10, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Easy pass of WP:ENTERTAINER as he was attracting attention even in his teenage years. Andrew🐉(talk) 20:08, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom- notability is not inherited. There are no substantive references (just one book reference that has been invoked throughout the article) nor which I could find that discuss the subject in detail. The roles though multiple are not significant and does not add up to notability. Hence does not pass WP:ENTERTAINER or WP:BASIC, and definitely not WP:GNG. -- Ashley yoursmile!  13:34, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * as per WP:Basic  If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may not be sufficient to establish notability.Davidstewartharvey (talk) 16:38, 5 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Weak delete. No evidence he passes WP:NBIO/WP:NACTOR. Not every minor actor is notable. Still, I'd be willing to reconsider my vote if someone can show me at least two reliable sources that discuss him for a paragraph or more. Anyone up to the challenge? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 03:40, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment Just having a quick look. Someone else will no doubt do a better job. Not sure if any of these are suitable but here's some stuff I found. Will also put these on article's talk page if anyone wants to use them in the article. (If this is all clogging up discussion too much let me know and I can cut it down a bit and link to rest on article's talk page.)
 * Detailed
 * These are mostly about him as a child/teenager/young man - but that shouldn't preclude them from being used.
 * Mentioned five times (about diving) in this article which also has photos -
 * Mentioned ten times here in what looks to be a fairly indepth piece about him and his sister -
 * Him and his family/sister/family business discussed here -
 * More about him, his sister, father (could they/the family have their own article(s) too?
 * And here with photo (re tumbling act when children)
 * Piece about him and sister as "circus kids" -
 * And again in these ones -, , , , , , , , , ,
 * Later life/career is mostly mentions and credits but all of these and above should give him GNG, BASIC, ENTERTAINER, not so sure about NACTOR but maybe.

 * Note: Was sometimes credited as "Pepe Borza" which brings up more including - at a quick glance - more credits https://theatricalia.com/person/10w6/pepe-borza and more detailed info about childhood circus performances at http://www.sarasotahistoryalive.com/history/articles/the-greatest-show-on-earth/. Probably more but haven't searched indepth under that spelling. -- HistoricalAccountings (talk) 09:03, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
