Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tyrel Jackson Williams (2nd nomination)


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was Keep; notability thoroughly established sufficient to pass WP:NACTOR and WP:GNG. The prior deletion discussion, which closed as delete, was 6.5 years ago. The circumstances have changed, as the actor has had several significant roles in the time since then. Non-admin closure per WP:NAC #1. --Hammersoft (talk) 15:24, 7 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment – Let me try to look into this: with one lead role in a TV series under his belt, the subject would seem to make a good case for notability. But let me see if I can find some sourcing to back that up... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 04:53, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. Main role in a Disney TV series for four seasons, main role in a Disney TV film, main role in an upcoming IFC TV series; all well sourced now. --King Rk (talk) 12:46, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Well, not the greatest sources, but I'll attempt to look for better later today... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 13:31, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
 * If you have secondary sources, please list them. This was my reason for nominating for deletion.  Thank you.  Magnolia677 (talk) 00:13, 7 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep. OK, I'm not even done sourcing the article yet, but it's a pretty clear "keep". Lead in one TV series; has a main role in a second upcoming TV series; co-starring role in a TV movie (which, granted, is low profile, but still) – this all points in the direction of clearing WP:NACTOR. (If Williams got any press for appearing in Failure to Launch, which I have yet to check on, it would completely cinch it.) But I think what definitely puts it over the top is the two Kids Choice Awards nominations, including one just this year. I think Williams pretty clearly meets the notability requirements. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 04:16, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. Sources added since nomination bring the reference problem up to scratch. Passes on multiple criteria. ShelbyMarion (talk) 04:39, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
