Sean Brosnan (actor)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Brosnan doesn't seem to meet WP:NACTOR or WP:GNG. Any coverage on him is essentially because of his father. Boleyn (talk) 09:17, 27 December 2014 (UTC)
 * While I understand where the nominator is coming from, I'd have to say keep. He has acted in a number of movies. Perhaps most, if not all coverage, is because of his father. Regardless, it is coverage from secondary, independent sources. --ceradon ( talk  •  contribs ) 11:15, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Delete significance of coverage matters and this article has not much to stand on. I tried the search tools, too. There are some acting appearances, but arguably not enough to live up to WP:NACTOR. No prejudice against recreation in the future. Hekerui (talk) 14:09, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:NOTINHERITED + WP:NACTOR - Being a son or daughter of a famous actor doesn't grant you a free pass to an article, Like this BLP there's no evidence of notability so will have to say Delete. – Davey 2010 Talk 19:42, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I was linked to this deleted page from a movie article (UFO/Alien Uprising). To be fair, I was curious if he was Pierce Brosnan's son, and sure enough he is.  The discussion here is amusing, if not a bit sad, but in the end it seems unfair.  Sean has an IMDB page with a detailed bio (albeit the beginning has a weird focus on lineage), plenty of credits, and 4 awards.  Google also categorizes him as an actor in their search categories.  Perhaps being an actor's kid doesn't make you an actor, but it also shouldn't disqualify you from credits you've earned.  Either way, there are Wikipedia articles that mention this person acting in movies with broken links because of a debate over whether he's an actor or not.  Feels sus. 2603:8080:700:C160:5D5F:6C57:72FD:1815 (talk) 20:36, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
