WP:BLP of an 11 year old child actor. Much of the article is trivia about non-professional work, anecdotal statements/reflections (it appears to have been written by his mother), and speculation about "plans in the works" for his future career. Stripping that out it becomes clear that this young chap does not (yet) meet the notability criteria for actors. He's appeared in a few shorts, the odd episode of TV series but certainly nothing which qualifies as "significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances or other productions". He may well qualify for a page in a few more years, but not now. Nancy ^talk 13:13, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Note: Since I made this nomination the article's creator has stripped it right back so that now it only contains Harris's professional appearances however the notability concerns remain.Nancy ^talk 16:54, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

• Delete: I can't find significant coverage for this actor. Joe Chill (talk) 16:26, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
• Keep: This actor is covered in two industry databases (IMDB and InBaseline), two television network Websites (USA Network, FOX Network), two Wikipedia articles (House Big Baby and Young Artist Awards 2009), and the official Young Artist Awards Website. He has principal credits in two major feature films (Angels & Demons, Kissing Strangers) and guest or recurring roles on two popular TV shows (House and Little Monk) Dharris1844 (talk) 17:33, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
• Strong Delete - article was exclusive creation of User:Dharris1844 a single purpose account devoted exclusively to editing this article. This is advertising spam. Racepacket (talk) 21:53, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
• Strong Keep: This information could be submitted by anyone; it is all factual and impartial. Because this is my first submission, you want it deleted? Everyone has to start somewhere. I was urged by others in the industry to create this article. If you won't allow me to create it, there easily could be many others who would love to create in their name.

  • It's because your son fails WP:ENT. Joe Chill (talk) 22:31, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
  • He doesn't fail WP:ENT. He meets the criteria. He has multiple strong credits and a very large fan base. Videos of his screen and stage performances get a thousand hits or more a day on YouTube. He is ranked among the top three boys in his age for dramatic acting on the InBaseline Studio Systems database. Dharris1844 (talk) 24:41, 8 November 2009
