Biographical article on an entertainer who does not meet notabiliy because he has not had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions, nor has he made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to any field of entertainment, and finally he does not seem to have a large fan base or significant cult following.WaxonWaxov (talk) 14:51, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep I think the Altar Boyz and Little Mermaid roles both qualify as significant (although certainly not earth-shattering) Vartanza (talk) 04:29, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Citations This article has almost none.WaxonWaxov (talk) 10:47, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
 * You noticed my edit summary when I declined the prod you placed? I'll add some more citations when I get a chance (or anyone else is of course welcome to go ahead). Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 13:41, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Hey brother, if you have citations, cite away. This article is still not notable IMO. WaxonWaxov (talk) 14:54, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep – I've added citations. This actor has won a Theatre World Award and was nominated for a Drama Desk Award, and has had substantial coverage in The New York Times and the Dayton Daily News, enough to meet the general notability guideline. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 11:39, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
 * This is a good start, but all the citations for both the NY Times and Dayton Daily News are just links to the papers' homepages, not to specific articles. So how does one fix that?  I figure you have copies of the papers in your hand, or have seen microfilm versions?  Or have you in fact found online articles that you could link directly to.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by WaxonWaxov (talk • contribs) 13:27, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Opps. My Bad.WaxonWaxov (talk) 11:09, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. Per Paul Erik, this is good enough now. I would normally be suspicious of articles cited entirely to offline sources (post-Mike Handel paranoia perhaps!), but the ELs show that the guy obviously exists so there's no reason to doubt the depth of coverage.

 * Still Delete. I still contend that while yes, this guy exists, he does not meet Notability (people) because he has not had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions, nor has he made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to any field of entertainment, and finally he does not seem to have a large fan base or significant cult following.WaxonWaxov (talk) 15:11, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
 * But he meets WP:BASIC (part of the page you linked to) thanks to the level of coverage, and WP:ANYBIO (another part of the same page) thanks to the award win. Alzarian16 (talk) 15:16, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't really care anymore. I will however, keep links to the sections you reference and a link to this discussion. There's a lot of double-standards wikipedia.WaxonWaxov (talk) 13:08, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
