I don't think this actor meets WP:NACTOR, WP:WHYN and WP:GNG. Sk8erPrince (talk) 22:57, 3 November 2019 (UTC) - User has been site banned by Arbcom. (This may or may not change the final result based on consensus already established so far)
 * Tentative Keep. I understand the argument for deletion, but its always better to err on the side of caution in these cases. While the significant number of wiki-type sources on him aren't necessarily the standard for reliability, the number I found with just an initial search does indicate his impact. I think any voice actor, no matter how marginal the audience, with 26 roles over 24 works can be justified an appropriate subject for an article to keep. I guess it's open to discussion, though. ƒin  (talk) 23:44, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Where is the WP:SIGCOV on the actor in question? Sk8erPrince (talk) 00:30, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep Meets the criterion for WP:ENT based off his lead role in Eureka Seven, Cyborg 009, Zenki, and other roles. Lord Roem ~ (talk) 04:01, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Dominic from Eureka Seven is a main supporting role at best..... Renton is the main character of E7. Just naming a bunch of titles isn't notability. Sk8erPrince (talk) 04:21, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Searching for "Dominic" at the List of Eureka Seven episodes shows they were in a lot of episodes and seem to be a significant character.  D r e a m Focus  15:42, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Tanda is one of the main characters of Moribito, and they also did the main character for Zenki. The subject specific guideline for voice actors has been met.   D r e a m Focus  15:42, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Where is the coverage for said roles? Sk8erPrince (talk) 15:44, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Don't need coverage to confirm these are notable roles. Someone who got coverage for a minor appearance wouldn't be notable under WP:ENTERTAINER but would be under the WP:GNG.   D r e a m Focus  15:49, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Virtually no reliable sources to establish notability aside from ANN. All the ANN pieces are critical of Doyle's work, but not included in the article. Esw01407 (talk) 16:07, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:ENT and roles Lord Roem pointed out. Rab V (talk) 17:12, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete The reception for Doyle shows he has at least two major roles that were critically reviewed but with a minor sentence or two that doesn't really explain his career, so I can't count it as significant coverage. I just can't find any background on this person beyond that, so even if the critiques are added, it is likely to end up as a WP:PERMASTUB. It wouldn't be missed if it were deleted.

 * Permastub is just an essay, a personal opinion not supported by enough people to become a guideline, so meaningless in any deletion discussion. WP:NOTABILITY is the guideline that determines things, and it says an article must meet the General Notability Guidelines, OR the subject specific guidelines such as WP:ENTERTAINER, never had to meet both since then the subject specific ones wouldn't have a reason to exist.   D r e a m Focus  02:20, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Article's subject neither meets WP:GNG nor WP:ENT.  Spy-cicle💥   Talk? 20:23, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Britishfinance (talk) 00:36, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - I am with Angus on this one when it comes to the available sources. WP:SIGCOV falls under WP:NOTABILITY, and WP:ENT is listed under "Additional criteria". What is the use of having a biography about a living person without the proper sources? It goes against WP:BLP in terms of potential WP:HARM. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 16:02, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Doesn't meet WP:GNG or WP:ENT. مضحرالعجایب (talk) 18:19, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
