Todd Giebenhain

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

New article from a new editor that would have been stopped by WP:ACREQ. One ref bio about an actor who had two parts that are not referenced in the show's articles. Fails WP:ENT. This is why new users should start by editing existing pages. Here is the very short IMDB Legacypac (talk) 01:34, 29 March 2018 (UTC)


 * KEEP for now at least. I wouldn't really consider his IMDB page to be short considering that he has almost 50 credits. His role on Raising Hope was actually a pretty big one, appearing in more than half of the episodes a d more than any other recurring character. He has also guest started on several big shows like NCIS and Bones. At the very least the article should be given a little bit of time to be expanded before deleting it.

 * Do you have any argument grounded in Wikipedia policies or guidelines? WP:ILIKEIT is not a reason to keep an article. ~Anachronist (talk) 06:08, 21 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Strong delete IMDb is not a reliable source. It often inclusdes total falsehoods. It is not an acceptable source, so it does not matter how long an entry is there. Beyond this, Wikipedia does not aim to cover every actor ever.John Pack Lambert (talk) 06:09, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete. IMDb is enough to escape WP:BLPPROD, but not enough to show notability for AFD; it is not, ever, a reliable source. Note that the other reference in the article as of this writing only mentions Giebenhain as a "guest star", in the caption of the photo, not in the article text at all. That said, I can find quite a few passing mentions to him, largely from his role on Raising Hope, but nothing that constitutes significant coverage.
