Comment: A second film credit with no extra citations beyond the current routine mentions isn't going to be enough to pass here. Utopes (talk / cont) 04:12, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Ward has appeared in only one film. The film has received many reviews, due to the notability of its creator (Ray Romano), but Ward does not yet appear notable from this single role. WP:TOOSOON applies here. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 18:04, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: Interviews don't count towards notability because they are not independent. ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me! 17:08, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
