- Comment Well, as part of a stunt ensemble, the fellow was nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award, so as to meet WP:ANYBIO. I'll see what I can do to improve it and report back. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 01:11, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep While failing WP:GNG, and while he has had small roles in his early career as has any actor, it is my determination that in his total career[1] he meets WP:ENT. His SAG Awards nomination is a nice extra.[2] Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 04:00, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Many roles in notable shows, and won a notable award. Dream Focus 05:16, 13 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep — clearly notable from the links provided, although the references need to be sorted out and converted from bare links. This is not a reason for deletion however. — Jonathan Bowen (talk) 12:48, 14 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. There are no sources about him. And if it is thought that being nominated for an award to a collective of people this large is notable then that is laughable. And please note that this is a nomination, not even a win, so does not meet WP:ANYBIO, not matter how liberally interpreted. WP:ENT calls for significant roles, which he does not appear to have had. Find some sources actually about the person, and I will reconsider. Quantpole (talk) 16:07, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, per Quantpole. All the references I've seen so far are passing mention or press releases. --Nuujinn (talk) 21:16, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Move to the correct capitalization. RussianReversal (talk) 01:02, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete to keep it from being linkspammed over every damn article as it is being now. --Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 03:33, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Without articles with significant coverage about him, fails WP:BIO/WP:GNG generally. Lack of major roles means he fails WP:ENT. And he was only nominated for a SAG award; it appears he did not win. Novaseminary (talk) 14:55, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Mentioned as an actor in this article. But I can find no significant coverage about him in reliable sources. His body of work to date appear to be small roles. The large ensemble nomination for a SAG award isn't sufficient by itself to establish notability. It does appear he is starting to get jucier roles so perhaps an article may be appropriate in the future, but for now, it does not meet notability. -- Whpq (talk) 16:27, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
