 * Delete - Fails WP:N. I am unable to find any reliable sources supporting any of the notability claims.  All sources introduced appear to be self-citations and non-reliable sources.  Many of the sources make no mention of Richard Arsenault at all as well.  ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 04:06, 24 September 2009 (UTC)


 * I have revised the entry, eliminating anything that may have previously been construed as a fan site or auto-biographical. Notability of the subject is well established; I found numerous mentions of Richard Arsenault and his notabilityin various searches. Perhaps references in this article need to be updated.

 * Comment: I have found no such reliable sources. Please provide them.  I should also caution you that if this new account is in follow-up to this posting  you might also want to read over the conflict of interest guidelines. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 18:01, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: I have gone through and removed uncited BLP claims, there were many. There is not much left of the article.  I have tried to find WP:RS that make mention of the subject of the article and have not had any luck turning up any at all.  ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 18:32, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: The only reliable source that has been turned up so far is a single peripheral mention in the LA Times 8 years ago: . This peripheral mention does not establish notability. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 15:08, 26 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete - even if everything is true, I am not sure that producing some episodes of TV shows counts for WP:CREATIVE. This is, in effect, a completely unsourced BLP. If the IMdB informaation could be verified, I would change my mind on this AfD. Bearian (talk) 17:28, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I have spent some time looking up the Arsenaults on the web (and there are quite a few), but found no indication that this one falls within the general notability guidelines. pablo hablo. 20:36, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
