It's not as abysmally sourced as the article previously deleted at AfD, but the underlying notability issue has not changed since the last AfD a few years ago. Nowhere near meeting WP:GNG, online coverage of the subject is trivial or else not independent. In principle could be redirected to Martin Shaw as {{r from child}}, but there's almost no information about Joe Shaw at that page. signed, Rosguill talk 00:13, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Actors and filmmakers and England. signed, Rosguill talk 00:13, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
- Delete. This fails Wikipedia:Notability. Only one acceptable source exists (if another is found I'll reconsider). Here's a source assessment table:

- That looks like it took a lot of effort. McFilet O' Fish Fan (talk) 01:26, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
- Keep.
- Seems to meet WP:NACTOR with Rhodes, Bad Girls and Murder Investigation Team.
- Seems to also meet WP:BASIC. Looking through proquest there are several different articles, including NYT[1], Chicago Tribune[2], etc [3] that have a few sentences of SIGCOV around his work in Rhodes along with his background. Additionally there is another Daily Mirror article from a different author, several years apart year that is an in-depth interview, but interspersed with independent assertions of facts about the subject [4]. Beyond that there's lots of varying coverage of subject's acting in various performances to sufficiently meet WP:BASIC.
