 * "... mainly known for bit parts"? Delete. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hairhorn (talk • contribs)
 * Delete - The article is pretty much self-nominating for AFD isn't it? For completeness sake, there is no entry for a William MacNeish on IMDB.  And checking the full cast list of the 40 Year old Virgin shows no credit given for a William MacNeish or variations thereof. As such it fails the fundamental policy of verifiability. -- Whpq (talk) 16:57, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Note to closing admin. I've moved the article to William Macneish. Be aware of this if closing with a script. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:12, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as the person's unsourcable "fame" has not even translated to IMDB . In looking over the projects in which the article asserts he had roles, his name was not found. G3 hoax anyone? MichaelQSchmidt (talk) 01:43, 23 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. That "Mainly known for bit parts" says it all, really. McMarcoP (talk) 15:41, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
 * And what's more, in researching the name, he apparently is not known even for bit parts... or anything else. MichaelQSchmidt (talk) 15:46, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Apparently (assuming the article isn't just a complete hoax) by "bit parts" he means "extra work"&mdash;if he'd had a speaking role in a major movie like the ones mentioned, he'd be credited and listed on the IMDb.  So maybe he's been working consistently as an extra, great, but that doesn't come close to making him notable enough for an entry. &mdash;Smeazel (talk) 21:48, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
