Ted Newsom

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Lacks notability. Can’t find a lot of reliable sources to corroborate much of the information within the article, source supporting his death is relatively weak. Doesn’t look like much of his filmography is notable either. Rusted AutoParts 20:40, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Per nom. Plus I see that some of the claims made in the article were taken from his personal IMDB page, which is not a reliable source. Nearlyevil665 (talk) 21:06, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete signs of lots of self-editing with no indication of passing WP:ANYBIO. Graywalls (talk) 01:02, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Meets WP:AUTHOR which states "The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work." Some of the movies such as Ed Wood are pretty well known. Altough, this article lacks proper references and needs lot's of work.

 * If you're referring to the Tim Burton movie, that isn't the Ed Wood movie he was involved in. Rusted AutoParts  06:41, 4 September 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete For somebody recently-deceased, you'd expect to be able to find obituaries to source and improve the article, but I can't find anything of the sort. If we can't fix up the article, we shouldn't have it. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  19:16, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: Nothing that passes GNG, BASIC or WP:AUTHOR. He co-wrote The Unofficial NFL Players Handbook, it's humor, but I still thought it would pass something in WP:NSPORT, but I couldn't find anything.  // Timothy ::  talk  07:11, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
