Non notable actor, only using IMDB as a source. Deprodded by another editor, but no sources added. Cardiffbear88 (talk) 23:18, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • It was only deprodded because the IMDb link rules out WP:BLPPROD but for some reason you dont believe it. Why dont you ask at the help desk? If it was a normal prod I wouldn't have deprodded it, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 23:22, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete with fire IMDb is junk. It is not a reliable source. If we at all respected our own BLP rules, we would have "only IMDb as a source" as grounds for speedy deletion that could only be overcome by adding some non-IMDb source to the article. We have never accepted that every person who has ever had a credited role is notable, and that is what this mindless use of IMDb is leading us towards. We need to act to get rid of these junk articles. The fact that they have survived over a decade is a blemish on Wikipedia.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:20, 10 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep The subject is notable, even though the sourcing is poor. Better sourcing would improve the article to "keep" standards.TH1980 (talk) 22:08, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
