Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Actors and filmmakers
All deletion discussions relating to filmmakers, directors and other non-actor film-related people should now be listed on this page. |
This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Actors and filmmakers. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Actors and filmmakers|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Actors and filmmakers. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

In terms of online sources, I found nothing for this actor/producer beyond his IMDb entry and two passing mentions in reviews of the 2012 film Foxfur (itself of questionable notability). Fundamentally, he falls short of the basic notability criterion and judging by the IMDb entry, he also falls short of the the actor-specific criteria. Pichpich (talk) 19:08, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

- Keep. The reason there's no similar list for American cinema is that the practice of playback singing isn't really there. This list groups actors according to a criterion that, in the context of Indian cinema, is significant and encyclopedic. This means that the only relevant points of WP:NOTDIRECTORY (1 and 6) don't really apply here. The lack of sources is an issue but the information in the article is neither harmful nor particularly doubtful so WP:NOCITE
can't be a reason for deleting.Where was I looking, it turns out it can, in principle. Uanfala (talk) 15:45, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

- Delete - while one of the above arguments is valid for keeping List of Indian playback singers, that isn't what's being discussed here. Indeed, that argument would beg that such an uncited list as this be deleted immediately. Uncited material can be deleted, and this article is totally without references.Onel5969 TT me 20:54, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

Non-notable individual. Biggest claim to fame is winning Miss Nevada United States; however, this is not a terribly notable beauty pageant (not to be confused with the more well-known Miss Nevada or Miss Nevada USA). Playing very minor TV roles and being an outstanding graduate also don't constitute sufficient indicators of notability. IagoQnsi (talk) 03:44, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per nominator's reasons.HappyValleyEditor (talk) 04:13, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
Other pageant winners are considered notable, solely for their pageant wins: Julianna Erdesz, Georgina Vaughan, Randi Sundquist. The Miss United States Pageant is also notable enough for inclusion. Is a contest's subjective public visibility, relative to other contests, sufficient to determine notability of the winners? rghpkp 19:45, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
- Frankly, I have questions about whether those three people should have articles, and that's given that they won the more notable Miss Nevada or Miss Nevada USA pageants. In fact, Vaughan's article already has a notability tag on it, and if you look at the navboxes at the bottoms of those pages, you'll see that the vast majority of the state winners for Miss America and Miss USA are not listed and do not have articles. I think winning the much less notable Miss Nevada United States is a far cry from being a sufficient indicator of notability. -IagoQnsi (talk) 23:53, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

- Delete I am not sure if we have agreed whether winners of Miss Nevada or Miss Nevada USA would be notable (I know this was being debated for such competitions, and I am not sure what we came up with), but Billings won in a pageant we do not even have an article on.

Subject doesn't meet notability criteria outlined at WP:BIO. Most of the references are not independent of the subject. Those that are independent are either local news stories and/or they barely mention the subject. Nothing qualifies as "significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject". All the contributors to article content are SPAs, including one whose name suggests this is self-promotion. Edgeweyes (talk) 23:46, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Winning an International Jugglers' Assocation Numbers Competition is judged only on technical ability and not for showmanship, so his awards in the Individual Rings Numbers Competition Malcolm’s technical juggling ability (see Sport (competitive) juggling[1]), which is noteworthy enough to have won medals two years in the numbers competition.

- Delete - Not sure what some folks are describing as reasonable sourcing? Facebook? Hotstar (an even less reliable version of YouTube, which isn't considered reliable)? A press release masquerading as a news story from the Telegraph (becoming more and more common in Indian press)? Perhaps it's the YouTube cite? Or, wow, could it be the citation (which doesn't actually lead to anything about this person) from that incredibly wonderfully reliable Mega Model Hunt? I don't have access to the Times piece, so AGF, it's a good cite. That leaves a single citation for an actor who meets non of the criteria of WP:ACTOR. Searches turned up a single trivial mention on News, zip on Newspapers, Books, Scholar, Highbeam, or JStor. Onel5969 TT me 16:44, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - one significant coverage is hardly enough, assuming the piece on The Telegraph is reliable, which honestly does look like a press release.

- Delete - A note about the article creator User:Shonell Thakker. A simple google search shows he/she is employed by a entertainment-related PR agency in India. The agency is currently assigned to promote the film M.S._Dhoni_:_The_Untold_Story, in which Rajiv plays a role. Other edits from the user shows all edits have been made with the sole intention of promoting the film and its actors, which is a violation of single purpose account. Additionally, the editor is in violation of paid editing and Conflict of Interest. The sources are poor in quality with the basic objective of somehow making the actor seem notable. 14.140.50.82 (talk) 10:25, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
All those claiming issues with facts and citations seem to have their fact checks questionable too. Google search on article creator User:Shonell Thakker; thats me; shows career details. I have worked in the entertainment industry way early in my career. I am not employed by any PR agency neither am I promoting a film, neither am I hired by the film M.S._Dhoni_:_The_Untold_Story to promote the film. Before accusing or assuming please check your facts. Also there is no proof of money exchange, which hasnt happened coz I AM NOT EMPLOYED BY EITHER RAJIV OR THE PRODUCTION HOUSE!!! As far as the telegraph article goes, its a recognised newspaper. There is also an article by Times of India Bombay times. Just to counter argue, TOI also charges for articles how come that passes as the 'Reliable Article' in most other articles? YouTube and Hotstar links are given to show the proof of the casting and direction. If the visual isnt a proof enough then what is? Every single statement has a proof link. As far as film M.S._Dhoni_:_The_Untold_Story goes its on its early stages of promotions so links will be added as needed.

No one's arguing that she passes GNG, buthow does she fail PORNBIO? She has two non-scene/ensemble wins, which is more than enough to satisfy the guideline. Rebecca1990 (talk) 01:51, 27 March 2016 (UTC)\- I never said anyone was did I ?, Because they're not notable awards and winning an award for "Superslut of the year" is as cheap as it gets, She has a lovely profile over at Pornhub (which I just found out can't be linked thanks to the blacklist!) so it's not as if we're disadvantaging anyone by deleting this poorly referenced article. –Davey2010Talk 02:05, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- No, it isn't "cheap". The porn industry's most prestigious award is AVN's Female Performer of the Year and there is a very strong correlation between that award and XRCO's Superslut. 10 out of 11 Superslut winners have been nominated for/won Female Performer of the Year. Jollee was nominated for AVN's Female Performer of the Year award in 2005 and 2006, the same years in which she won XRCO's Superslut. AVN nominates 15 people every year for Female Performer of the Year while XRCO narrows AVN's list down to the strongest contenders for their own Female Performer of the Year award. Jollee was such a strong contender for Female Performer of the Year in 2005, that she made it onto XRCO's elite Female Performer of the Year nominees list of only 5 people. Now, I personally think that an AVN Female Performer of the Year nomination should be enough to pass PORNBIO. It is quite a reasonable request. I can assure you all I'd never ask for any other nomination into PORNBIO, not even Female Performer of the Year from XBIZ/XRCO/etc. or Best New Starlet, but the fact there's over 30 AVN Female Performer of the Year nominees without WP articles is preposterous. Despite being a reasonable addition to PORNBIO, it would probably not happen, but at the very least can we keep the current PORNBIO guideline? PORNBIO notability is already far enough from real-world notability, stop trying to take it even further from that by expanding its exclusions. PORNBIO#1 ("Has won a well-known and significant industry award. Awards in scene-related and ensemble categories are excluded from consideration.") is clearly met by XRCO's Superslut award. No good argument has been given against it so far in this AfD besides "I don't like the category because it has a funny name". You're all reacting to the Superslut category as if it were an award for "Best Amputee Porn Star", "Best Midget Porn Star", or some other obscure genre where it's nearly impossible for performers in it to become notable because of its unpopularity. Evil Angel produces pornography so extreme, that it has led to obscenity charges, and it is among the porn industry's top companies, which demonstrates that extreme sex acts are part of mainstream pornography. Some porn stars who perform extreme sex acts become notable for doing so, so it makes sense for porn award shows to recognize them. Out of the 13 years the award has been give out, only two recipients of it have won it twice, and Jollee is one of them. Rebecca1990 (talk) 17:39, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

No one's arguing that she passes GNG, butshe does pass PORNBIO, which is enough, by consensus, for articles to be kept. Rebecca1990 (talk) 01:51, 27 March 2016 (UTC)- Does it pass a) significant and b) well-known? Sure, the article on the award itself prominently says in passive voice (quite against UNDUE) that it has been deemed the Academy Award for X-rated media, but the organization that issues the awards is not the AMPAS or SAG-AFTRA for pornography, and I only find moderate coverage of the award itself (past the level of notability, but not "significant or well-known"). Esquivalience t 02:58, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- Yes, XRCO is a well-known/significant award. WP:PORNBIO itself explicitly states that an XRCO Hall of Fame induction is enough to keep an article. Rebecca1990 (talk) 22:40, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

- Keep Clearly passes WP:PORNBIO#1 ("Has won a well-known and significant industry award"). PORNBIO only excludes scene-related and ensemble categories. Superslut is not scene-related/ensemble. You can mock the category's name all you want, but that isn't a reasonable argument to exclude it from PORNBIO. Porn performers are known for many different things. The willingness of some to perform extreme sex acts is one of them. Performing extreme sex acts in PORN films is a perfectly legitimate reason to give someone a PORN award. That's the whole purpose of porn award shows, to reward outstanding porn performances. And how is this a "BLP violation". If Jollee had any qualms about being called a "superslut" she wouldn't have performed extreme sex acts on film for all to see, won XRCO's Superslut award TWICE, and proudly pose for photos with her trophy. Rebecca1990 (talk) 22:01, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
- Rebecca, please stop misrepresenting the terms of PORNBIO. PORNBIO does not say that only scene-related awards are deemed to fail PORNBIO, and that all other awards qualify. Other awards (relating to niche categories, body parts, for example) have been found by consensus to fail the well-known/significant standard. You may not like the consensus, but denying it exists is tendentious and disruptive. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by administrators since 2006. (talk) 16:42, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- I'm not misrepresenting PORNBIO. Consensus in AfDs has repeatedly shown that all non-scene/ensemble categories from well-known/significant ceremonies meet PORNBIO. You've keep claiming that niche and body part categories have consensus to exclude from PORNBIO, but have never provided evidence of it. In fact if it were true, it would say so in PORNBIO. It's preposterous that you would even suggest we exclude niche and body part categories. There is no logical reason to do so. The niche awards go hand-in-hand with PORNBIO#2 ("Has made unique contributions to a specific pornographic genre") and since one of the things porn stars are best known for is their body parts, it makes sense to have body part awards. Don't get me wrong, I do think Best Actress awards are evidence of notability and think they should continue to be accepted by PORNBIO, but I consider body part awards to be even bigger evidence of notability than Best Actress. There are simply more people viewing pornography for the boobs and butts than they are for the acting/plots. Porn stars known for having large breasts or a big butt are better known for having that than the ones known for their acting skills are known for their acting skills. Rebecca1990 (talk) 21:01, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- For all your huffing and puffing about The Big Bad Wolfowitz, you keep evading the point that PORNBIO quite plainly does not say that only scene-related award categories fail the well-known and significant standard. As Morbidthoughts told you on the PORNBIO talkpage, "The debates or contention in AFDs/DRVs like Deauxma and Elexis Monroe have been whether their nominations are significant enough to satisfy PORNBIO simply because they are performer awards. No, they are not and consensus had made clear when we last edited PORNBIO that the category is important in determining significance.[7] The AFDs and DRVs have made clear that the MILF of the Year nominations are not significant enough not that PORNBIO is flawed. Given that in this very AFD you are also arguing that "she does pass PORNBIO, which is enough, by consensus, for articles to be kept" -- which contradicts the express language in WP:Notability (people), of which PORNBIO is a component that "meeting one or more [of the components] does not guarantee that a subject should be included", it's clear that the position you argue regarding notability is contradicted by longstanding consensus.

- That quote is from a discussion on what to exclude from PORNBIO and the consensus of it was to only exclude nominations, not any type of award category. Consensus is the outcome of a discussion, not a user's opinion in it. Not only that, you're also providing a quote on a completely different award that is irrelevant in this AfD. The quote also happens to be from a user who has voted to keep this article below, so you are totally misinterpreting it to refer to Jollee's awards when it clearly doesn't.

- Delete fails the requirement of WP:GNG of having received significant coverage in independent reliable sources, not having substantial coverage in mainstream media, the award is not in a major category but one of the endless spurious categories that seem to exist only for publicity purposes and inventing some sort of fake notability for projects such as wikipedia. Atlantic306 (talk) 22:39, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
- XRCO's Superslut category does not "exist only for publicity purposes". If that were the case, its recipients would only be performers with publicists. It is very unlikely for Jollee to have had a publicist during her career, otherwise an AVN search for "Ariana Jollee" under "Company News" (aka "Press Release") would yield results for PR about her. There is only one result for Jollee in the search, and it's by a company promoting a film she happens to be in the cast of, not by a publicist promoting her. That PR was also released many years after she won the awards, so her wins were in no way influenced by any publicity at all. The entire XRCO Awards aren't influenced by publicity. If they were, performers like Aurora Snow, who has stated on numerous occasions (interviews, Daily Beast articles, college speeches, etc.) that she initially entered the adult film industry only to pay for school and planned to have a short-term/low-profile career she would forget about after quitting, wouldn't have won so many XRCO Awards early in her career.

- Keep - I believe she passes PORNBIO not just because of her awards but because of criteria 2 for having made unique contributions to a genre.

- Delete totally fails the guidelines for notability of pornographic actors.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:57, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
- The notability guideline for pornographic actors is "Has won a well-known and significant industry award. Awards in scene-related and ensemble categories are excluded from consideration." XRCO is a well-known and significant industry award and Superslut is not a scene-related or ensemble category. PORNBIO only requires one win and Jollee has two. Rebecca1990 (talk) 17:39, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
- Keep While one might find the name of the awards she won distasteful (and I somewhat agree), it is an individual body of work award and has been given out for long enough to be considered well-known. She has received a fair amount of coverage in and out of porn that she would pass the GNG as well in my opinion. Wikiuser20102011 (talk) 19:35, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

- Keep Having performed in an extraordinary Film with 65 partners – which is even for the unholy porn industry not everyday-stuff – sounds like a clear unique feature/unique selling point (or how one would call that in English) which has been covered and examined in two serious books. I can't imagine and don't want to watch such a film but calling that a unique contribution would in my opinion be the only possibility. Also her serious, personal XRCO Awards are of course no fun-awards just because of their namings. Neither are they promotional as they are giving out the only independent porn critics' awards in the US. XRCO is using some figurative, let's call it, "poetic" namings for their categories like "Unsung Swordsman", "New Stud", "Orgasmic Oralist" or "Superslut". And when reading a bit into the above book sources (that moreover state her to be one of the first well known gonzo performers) one will understand why she has been awarded as Superslut: because it's perfectely hitting the truth. --SamWinchester000 (talk) 23:34, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- Keep per PORNBIO. Her two Superslut of the Year awards—while apparently drawing the ire of some—meet PORNBIO point 1. 65 Guy Creampie was an "iconic, groundbreaking or blockbuster" film and, in my opinion, foreshadowed works like American Gokkun 8 (JM Productions 2008); her performance in Cremapie likely meets PORNBIO point 2. As WP:BIO instructs: "People are likely to be notable if they meet any" (emphasis added) of the specific guideline points. Rebbing 01:53, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
- Keep per meeting WP:PORNBIO through awards notable and significant to and through coverage by her industry, even if in non-genre media. Schmidt, Michael Q. 10:40, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
- This discussion has devolved into a bad joke. It's bizarre that proponents of keeping the article have cited as sufficient coverage an academic source (Jensen) which actually concludes "What conclusions should we draw about Ariana Jollee? From this limited information, it would be folly to claim to know anything" and goes on to state "If someone were to ask me 'Who is Ariana Jollie?' I would be hard pressed to offer much of an answer". In other words, the most substantive, reliable source to be found declares that reliably sourced information about this person cannot be found. That should be taken as a strong, and unrefuted, case that the subject fails the GNG. The only efforts the keep !voters make (with one exception) is simply handwaving and pointing to cites which, on examination, don't offer significant coverage. What theae sources boil down to is little more than the unuseful assertion that Ariana Jollee, like most of the women presented in "gang bang" pornography, is reduced to a cipher, and the statement that Jollee is a cipher is not a sufficient basis for an article. Similarly, the keep proponents assert, without anything resembling reliable sourcing, that all ofthe industry marketing claims about Jollee's single performance of supposed importance is factually accurate. This defies the simple and well-established fact that porn marketing is dominated by what the wrestling industry refers to as "Kayfabe", in-universe fiction that is presented as fact. Such kayfabe surrounding "gang bang" pornography is notoriously fictive; for example, one Jasmin St. Claire, formerly promoted as a "gang bang" record holder, now admits that her "extraordinary" performance was "among the biggest cons ever pulled off in the porn business". And there is exactly zero evidence that the "Superslut" meets the well-known/significant standard of PORNBIO (indeed, unusually for porn awards, it has virtually no GBooks hits (aside from compilations of Wikipedia articles, which don't count toward notability or significance); instead, the keep proponents generally make insinuations about the motives of delete !voters rather than address genuine policy- or guideline- based claims. Not even the award-giving organization provides and explanation of the eligibility requirements for or the criteria by which the "award" recipient is selected, a strong, strong signal of its insignificance.

Subtropical-man talk
(en-2) 19:49, 17 April 2016 (UTC) - I believe the proper word is not bizarre, HW, but ironic. You're distorting the words of an anti-pornography critic to make the argument that Jollee is not notable despite the fact that he devotes 12 pages to her. He's asking what could a viewer really know about Jollee the person rather than the performer which fits into the popular feminist argument that pornography objectifies and debases women. His actual rhetorical conclusion that you omitted, was "So, maybe the important question isn’t “Who is Ariana Jollee?” Maybe the right question is “Who is Laura David?".[24] However, let me quote some other words from him about the performer.
- "By this logic, the women in pornography—especially the really nasty ones—are the ultimate women. By that standard, Ariana Jollee may well be the perfect woman in a world defined by pornography, someone whose public persona and work on the screen embody the concept of nasty."
- "This nastiest of the filthy women in pornography, this woman about to turn 22 years old, turns to a man who makes his living in the pornography industry and asks for his approval, asking if her sex with 65 men was a “good gangbang.”
- Hey look at that. Acknowledgment that she is notable in her field. Morbidthoughts (talk) 07:15, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
- What bullshit. Note that the section you quote begins with "By this logic", and the "logic" referred to is the standard porn marketing trope that women really want to be whores. That's not a perspective Wikipedia articles are written from, even if the Howard Stern show is. Jensen devotes 12 pages not to Jollee herself, but to how the woman featured in a piece of gang bang pornography that is fairly typical (despite its elaborate apparatus) is rendered a cipher by the industry's standard practices. The factual content regarding Jollee herself in that piece is limited to the writer's lack of information about her. Claiming that that's sufficient to support a BLP makes about as much sense as writing a BLP of John Malkovich based entirely on reviews of Being John Malkovich.

- Really, that's what comes down to it. Is this article really about the performer/character or the person that is behind that. That the character may be fictional does not make her less notable. Morbidthoughts (talk) 06:10, 19 April 2016 (UTC)

If it is true, it probably shows he is just not notable. That was a role that gets him listed 11 in a listing of the cast. So it was a marginally notable role in a not particularly well known film.

WP:BLP of an actor whose only discernible claim of notability per WP:NACTOR is that he's freshly cast as a supporting character in a forthcoming television series that only just finished production of its pilot, and has not yet been officially upfronted by a television network. The sourcing here, further, isn't substantively about him -- of the three sources here, two are about the development process of the series before he was cast in it, and thus fail to mention his name at all, and the one that does mention his name is just a blurb which fails to do more than mention his name -- which means that WP:GNG has not been passed either. As always, an actor is not automatically entitled to a Wikipedia article just because he exists; RS coverage verifying an NACTOR pass has to be present before an actor becomes eligible for an article, but neither part of that equation has been met here.

- Whether such a section has a large enough WP:SIZE to merit a WP:SPLIT is a matter for ordinary editing and discussion, not deletion. Here I see further that the split-off list has been expanded with more content since the split, so at best this would be a merge and redirect, something that should have been done in the first place rather than starting a completely unnecessary AFD. No one even tried to discuss whether the split was necessary before it was nominated for deletion, not even three hours after it was created. That's not how we should be doing things here. postdlf (talk) 21:26, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Keep It's brand new (obviously a work still in progress), appears to have enough sourceable content to meet GNG on its own, and the size/split issue raised by Postdlf seems to argue in favor of a summary style article. Note that the nom has not even linked to the right parent article, since Vanessa Williams is a disambiguation page.

- Comment - I could go either way on this topic. I just wanted to point out that currently her awards are split between two articles - the main page and the discography article:
I disagree that the topic is not notable - it falls in line with an article such as this one:
I do think that as it stands the Vanessa L. Williams article has too many charts and tables - one reason I moved the grammy awards to the discography. That being said, I will go with whatever decision helps to make the main article a good one.-Classicfilms (talk) 19:12, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
- Additional Comment - I went ahead and did a very minor clean up of this page. I added the awards tables from the discography article. One advantage to this set up lies in the acting section - the editor broke down the table from the main page in a very useful manner. If we decide to keep this article, I will remove the duplicate tables on the main Vanessa L. Williams page and the discography page.

Fails WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR. The subject of the article does not have significant roles in multiple films/series. In addition, there is hardly any independent media coverage (most references are primary/self published sources and even those are quite few). The article is also written in a promotional tone (although I tried to fix that). Lemongirl942 (talk) 07:54, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
- I have tried to add several additional independent sources from the media, including a recent feature article by an award-winning website in the UK. Somehow, User:Lemongirl942 deletes several of these independent media references and then cites 'lack of independent media references' as a reason to flag the article. I apologize if the article had a promotional tone when I edited it. A lot of the phrasing simply came from the independent sources I was quoting, and I was not aware that the tone would read in such a way at all. If the phrasing can be improved upon, I welcome it. However, I disagree that the article should be deleted. Natalie Faye is an actress with a strong body of work that I, and many others, have been following since the early 00s when she appeared in many Mediacorp television series and theatre productions. I remember reading about her back in those days in publications like 8 Days, Cleo, Her World, New Man, The Straits Times, The New Paper and such, which cited her work in significant plays and tv series such as First Touch, Phua Chu Kang, Heartlanders, Achar, True Files, The Legendary Swordsman, Millenium Bug, We Do, Colours, and The White Road. As those were physical publications, I've had difficulties finding corresponding reviews and articles online but I have managed to find some independent media articles and have referenced them. Honestly, I am baffled that this article is being cited for having not enough independent references when the Wikipedia articles of other notable actors who were known in Singapore during the same era as Natalie Faye, such as Steph Song, Cheryl Chin, Janice Koh, and Celest Chong have just as many independent references, if not fewer. Also, it would help if the legitimate independent media references I add to the article would stop being removed. Kelly A. Cheng 09:54, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
- @Kelly A. Cheng: If they appeared in Singaporean (physical) newspapers/magazines (prior to 2009) you can search them online in the archive here. I did search for "Natalie Faye" and it returned 0 results while a search for "Diana Natalie" returns 4 results. I am unable to find evidence that she satisfies WP:GNG. The sources I removed were independent sources but self published sources WP:SPS. The other sources you used for citations were all linked to the article subject. The one link to Asiaone was good, but it was only one. -- Lemongirl942 (talk) 08:39, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
- @Lemongirl942: You probably only found 4 because the site you provided only has an archive for a few newspapers, and not the vast majority of Singaporean magazines and media outlets. I have tried to find archives of those but can't. Anyway, this is my first Wikipedia article contribution and I decided to write this after reading a recent article about Faye. I felt that with her contributions to the theatre, film, and television industry since the early 00s and her appearances in so many notable Singaporean TV shows and plays of that time period, she deserved a Wikipedia page. But it seems that everyone is having trouble finding media articles that meet Wikipedia's requirements, so I understand the article being flagged for having insufficient sources. I have no objections to that - particularly since I currently don't have time to go dig up those old magazine and newspaper articles I mentioned but may do so at a later time. However, I am not sure this article should actually be flagged for deletion when it has more sources than dozens of other Wikipedia articles about Singaporean actors. When I made the article, I (mistakenly) felt that there were enough independent media references based on the pages of many other Singaporean actors - some of which only have two or three independent sources linked, and some, not at all. So I encourage Wikipedia editors to also examine these other articles as they are misleading in terms of how many sources are needed. I acknowledge that perhaps I did not provide enough for Natalie Faye, now that I know more about how many should be referenced. But other Wikipedia articles for Singaporean actors like Hayley Woo only have one reference, and yet that article is not being flagged for deletion. Even worse, Eileen Yeow has no sources/citations/references whatsoever, and the article hasn't been flagged for deletion either. Other Singaporean actor articles that have not been flagged for deletion despite insufficient sources include: Race Wong, Cheryl Chin, Mariam Baharum, Jeszlene Zhou, Michelle Goh, Melvinder Kanth, S. Shamsuddin, Elvin Ng, Baskar Subramanian, Anwar Hadi, Nathan Hartono (faulty links in references, and some are blogs). I can't remember all the Singaporean actor articles I looked at before I created my article, but these are some - there are countless others. In fact, I would go so far as to say that most articles about Singaporean actors on Wikipedia suffer from insufficient citations or proof of notability. A few are flagged in terms of needing more citations, but none are being flagged for deletion, while mine was flagged for deletion only two days after I made it, without time being given to improve it (while most of the above articles I cited have been around for years without being deleted despite insufficient citations). I just wanted to point out the inconsistency of Wikipedia editing standards when it comes to articles about Singaporean entertainers. Either all those articles should also be deleted, or my article should simply be flagged for needing additional citations, but not for deletion. Considering how new it is compared to the other articles with insufficient citations, it should be given more time to be improved.
- @Kelly A. Cheng: I understand this is your first article and I appreciate your help. The Singapore newspaper archive contains most of the mainstream newspaper which are considered as reliable sources WP:RS. If the person wasn't featured in the mainstream newspapers, it is hard to conclude that the person is notable (see WP:NACTOR). Thank you for bringing the other articles to our notice. The way to go about is to first search if independent sources are available about the articles subject. If not available, then it is OK to flag it for deletion. I'll continue the conversation on your talk page. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 08:13, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

- Biwom, I think you are probably right, but could you please provide those sources if you are certain of their existence. I looked through several Indian-language wikis and could not find an article on miss Asopa, nor significant leads on sources, though I continue to feel as if this article was transwiki'd from somewhere. On the other hand, in the Indian English press I did find a handful of articles mentioning her, but they were usually incidental mentions in articles more concerned about the shows she has worked on at large, and thus not going to establish her notability through in-depth coverage. Still, I tend to think it highly likely that sources do exist out there in other languages (and maybe some in English which I have not turned up) which would establish her notability. Can you point us towards some? Snow let's rap 21:52, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

Very limited to no notability. This is an autobiography by the artist themselves, and is purely promotional. Editor has created several different draft versions, which they attempted to put through AfC, but gave up after a single denial each time. I would normally say that if notability could be established, than this might be worth saving, but if you read the comment left on this article's talk page, and take it in light of the message left on my talk page (Request on 09:00:14, 21 March 2016 for assistance on AfC submission by Gwenwynne), it appears this person is more interested in using Wikipedia as a WP:SOAPBOX, and for self-promotion. She currently has two drafts pending in AfC. If she is truly willing to work on the article, delete this one, and let one of the drafts go through the AfC process. Although, my searches turned up virtually nothing about them (one brief mention in a Huffpo blog). Without being able to verify the veracity of the citations in the article, and the promotional nature of it, I think that this article should be at least merged with either of the two drafts, and let an uninvolved editor take it over.

- @Onel5969: the backstory and presence of drafts is not relevant to this deletion discussion; in the future I suggest trying to be more terse and framing the nomination in the context of deletion policy. That said, the concern I raised when I proposed this article for deletion remains; the subject does not appear to meet the criteria listed at WP:BASIC. The sources so far presented mention the theatre troupe she co-founded and was the artistic director of, awards that actors in the films and plays won, etc but they have very little to say about the actual subject of the article. I have not been able to find anything better. So, delete. VQuakr (talk) 02:40, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

Delete: Almost no coverage outside of imdb, so he doesn't really meet WP:GNG. WP:BIO requires 'significant roles in multiple notable films [or] television shows... a large fan base or a significant "cult" following' or 'unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment', so I don't think he passes that either. Press releases from Young Artists Awards document that he was nominated, and sometimes won, but the award was for "Guest Starring Young Actor" (i.e., not lead or supporting), and I would be hard-pressed to identify any of his competition for this award, leading me to believe that the award is not notable, as required by WP:NAWARD.

- Keep Believe he at least passes WP:GNG and even WP:ENT, since he's one of the subjects profiled in a book called "Gay Porn Heroes" by J.C. Adams, about the most influential performers in the field. A quick Google search came up with this article in a notable publication (The Advocate), and mentions his inclusion in the book. Subject has also apparently won or been nominated for some awards,(and here); just don't know how significant they are. But "a large fan base or a significant "cult" following" is all ENT requires, while GNG only needs "significant coverage in reliable sources;" and again, per Google, he clearly has both. Especially when you consider his first AfD was 10 years ago and he's apparently still around and relevant (here) and (here). That's a pretty notable shelf-life for any porn performer. X4n6 (talk) 22:37, 21 March 2016 (UTC
- Comment its the briefest of passing mentions in The Advocate and the Orlando Sentinel is another passing mention, the reference to his fanbase in the Gay U.K ref is based on 215,000 likes on his facebook which is not a remarkable number at all and is not reliable because likes can be bought in bulk. The book "Gay Porn Heroes" is about 100 gay porn actors so it is not very exclusive and at 252 pages in total for 100 actors its not very detailed. Atlantic306 (talk) 17:43, 22 March 2016 (UTC) 17:41, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
- Reply It's really not surprising since you tried to refute every single point I made - that there wasn't a single argument you made that I agree with. The mention in the Advocate highlighted his presence in a book entitled "Gay Porn Heroes." By the title alone, there is already the inference that the list is inherently notable in that genre. But for the Advocate, which I believe, is pretty much the gay publication of record, to mention him among all the others in the book - only further illustrates his notability. Otherwise, why mention him at all? Also, the author of the book is himself notable in that field, based on his prolific contributions. He could very likely be considered an authoritative source on the subject of notability. But your notion that 100 gay actors is not exclusive, is nonsense when you consider the thousands, if not 10s of thousands (or more) of gay porn performers the writer had to choose from. Again, just more evidence of GNG. And 215,000 Facebook likes is textbook ENT. Whether the numbers are exact or not is irrelevant. Because the threshold is simply a "cult following." So in a niche market like porn, gay porn specifically, a six figure following is easily a "cult following." Hell, a 10th of that would qualify. And The Advocate and the Orlando Sentinel are both reliable sources. Nor did you even attempt to refute my response that his last AfD was a decade ago - and yet his fans are still talking about him for whatever reasons. Again: cult following. Bottom line: we're only here to judge notability, nothing more. Every argument you made only confirms that he passes notability according to every threshold I've referenced. I'm really not invested enough to do more research - but I suspect that if I did, I would end up changing my !vote from Keep to Strong Keep, or even Speedy Keep. Because your arguments alone, while clearly not your intention, have only made a stronger case for keeping it. X4n6 (talk) 21:00, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

Regarding sig coverage the AFC advice for reviewers is that significant coverage from one source is at least one substantial paragraph, see here its in the box of section two [38] which is a lot less than a whole article, personally I had thought it had to be a bit more than a paragraph.

- Lilana Novakovich (1995), "Brenda Epperson has much to be happy about," The Record (Kitchener, Ontario), 470 words about her[41]
- The previous article notes that her wedding was covered in People magazine. That citation is: "One night to cherish," People Weekly 42.4 (Jul 25, 1994), pg. 95, but the actual article isn't in my Proquest subscription.

- Actually, in a lack of individual's coverage notability criteria tell us a discussion then has to be about the roles, and so anyone simply and unfoundedly claiming his roles are unsourcable or insignificant is unhelpful. We do not cherry-pick which guide to understand, but what I do understand after seven years and 60,000 edits is that the inclusion guide WP:NACTOR requires verification of an actor's roles, without demanding SIGCOV of the individual. Those two guides are not set as mutually exclusionary. No evidence beyond supposition that author User:Parthactor is the likely subject, but the user has not edited the stub since November 2010... but it has been edited by many others have since he stopped editing Wikipedia. And while ADVERT/PROMOTION in any article would certainly apply if the article were itself somehow full of unsourcable fluff, rather than sourcable fact, I know you decided to ignore a a reasonable assertion of notability when you wished it speedied. Atlantic306 was correct to decline your requested speedy. Had you given any thought to simply tagging it for sources rather than bringing it to AFD? Schmidt, Michael Q. 21:14, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

I believe that this article fails WP:ENT. As per this, "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions", the subject of this article has only had one role in Coronation Street and appeared as a guest on a daytime show. I cannot see that there is anything worth keeping in this article, I suggest either redirecting to David Platt (Coronation Street) or just deleting this article. 5 albert square (talk) 18:29, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

- Keep - I completely get all the delete !votes. And I understand how strictly applying the guidelines at WP:NACTOR lead you to that decision. That being said, the guy was a regular on a television show for 10 years. A very popular television show. If William Christopher's only role was as the chaplain on M*A*S*H, I'd say that was good enough (and he only appeared in 218 episodes). That being said, I've never seen the show, so I don't know how significant a role it is, but the fact that it's notable enough to have its own Wikipedia page, it's probably a decent role. Although, it looks like most of that article is post-Ormson, so if he was merely a glorified extra for those 10 years, than I'd rethink my !vote. Onel5969 TT me 00:53, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
- Comment @Onel5969: I didn't watch the show when Ormson was it in but it looks like he was in it from a baby to about 10 years old. Most child characters in that age range tend to be "glorified extras" which is why they end up being recast. These 10 years of the character are summarised by a single paragraph in David Platt (Coronation Street)#Storylines, so it looks like that's probably the case. I don't know if he had a speaking part at any point. AnemoneProjectors 11:03, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
- Response to comment - That's precisely my point AnemoneProjectors, I'm not sure. He may have been a glorified extra, or he might have had a part more akin to that of the Olsen twins on Full House.

- The thing is, what clears you through WP:AfC is not binding on what happens here at AfD. Put another way, what AfC is telling reviewers is the bare minimum to accept an article for publication in mainspace. But I suspect the AfC people assume that these "single refs" will soon be supplemented by other refs from other editors once the article is published (i.e. they're viewing that "bare minimum standard" as the starting point for an article...). At AfD, OTOH, we're sometimes looking at BLPs that have been entirely unsourced for up to a decade (and which would qualify for WP:BLPPROD if BLPPROD had been "grandfathered" to include them) which is usually a sign that significant sourcing is unavailable for the subject. Note the choice of my words – "significant sourcing". It's not to say that some of these languishing BLPs can't be sourced at all – it's that they can't be "adequately" or well sourced enough to clear WP:GNG (or WP:BASIC). In any case, what happens at AfC is certainly not binding here. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 01:24, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

- Delete Does not meet the requirements for notability of actors. We do not keep poorly sourced articles on marginally notable people because we have lots of poorly sourced articles on marginally notable people. If you think there are others actors who are not notable and yet have articles (which is probably the case), you are free to nominate them for deletion. And to tell you the truth, if they really are less notable than Hammon, I will also vote for deleting that article as well.

- Delete - The WP:OSE argument isn't really valid in this instance. And remember, having two significant roles only means the may be notable (the guideline says "multiple", but does not define it). To be specific, the guideline says: "People are likely to be notable if they meet any of the following standards. Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included; conversely, meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included." In this instance I don't think the two roles she has had guarantee that she is notable. Onel5969 TT me 01:33, 7 April 2016 (UTC)

- I present you another reference for mentioned article. It is the Playbill magazine, edition from 2012. On this link you can check it: Olja Hrustic. When you click on "Inside the Playbill" you can read some details from actress` biography. Since the Playbil is a well renowned magazine I suggest you once again to keep this article. Also, via broadway.com you can witness that she used to play in The best man by Gore Vidal. By the way, I still think that the IMDB is well reliable source, since their staff are checking accuracy of editing, similar as on Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lesko11 (talk • contribs) 09:17, 18 March 2016

- Correct me if I am wrong, but in Wikipedia`s article related to the citing IMDb is not stated that IMDb is not a reliable source. There are questions regarding the appropriate and inappropriate uses, but it is an issue for another debate. However, if citing IMDb is not reliable, then we have a problem with a plenty of articles related to living persons from the film industry. I will not point on any of them, but many of articles provide coverage only from IMDb or some tabloids. On the other hand, I cannot agree that The Playbill magazine is not independent reliable source.

- Within the Notability (people) article has been stated as follows: “Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions.“ It is obvious that her career meets this criteria. Honestly speaking, I do not know which measures you use for assessment whose credits are significant or not. The most important, we should insist on the same standards. I highlight that the independent film industry is much different from the Hollywood A production, thus the notability of actors/ actress varies. We could discuss all day long which production is more artistic, but the point is that both of them should be represented on Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lesko11 (talk • contribs) 12:46, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

Is this a case where a number of not-so-deep references amount to notability? I don't think so, because the closest that any of them comes to specifying Claxton's on-the-ground involvement is when Rich says that he interviewed subjects for Seeds of Despair. But Rich also says that Claxton won an Emmy, and my research does not corroborate that. Show me that he won the Emmy, and I'll rewrite the article instead of voting for deletion. —Ringbang (talk) 19:02, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

- Delete as nothing solidly convincing for independent notability and my searches found nothing better. SwisterTwister talk 22:08, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
- I continued my search. Here is Nicholas Claxton's filmography at the British Film Institute, and here is the filmography for his production company. I searched for coverage of the following documentaries: Drug Raped (1998), The Search for Shangri-la (1998), Frontline (1994), Linda McCartney: Behind the Lens (1992), The Hidden Hand (1991), Do They Feel My Shadow? (1991), Edward Goldsmith: The Green Revolutionary (1990), Suffer the Children (1988), Promised Lands (1987), The Price of Progress (1987), and Seeds of Despair (1984).
Although I did find some coverage (listed below), it rather seems like scrapings to me. Some of the films are significant—no doubt about it. The question is, as SwisterTwister put it, is it "solidly convincing" evidence of "independent notability"? Most of the sources below are snippets from Google Books. In some cases, there isn't enough context to determine the depth of the coverage. In all cases, the emphasis is on the film, not the filmmakers. Even in Bruce Rich's book, which of all the sources is the most generous to Claxton, this is the case. Some of the films look really intriguing; especially the vanguard coverage of the 1983–85 famine in Ethiopia. I still haven't found much that one can say about Claxton himself, and his involvement. Most of the material in the article right now is unsourced, and some of it is clearly promotional. It emphasizes his current career, which seems to be unnoteworthy. But even if I attempted to revise the article to refocus attention on his filmmaking career in the 1980s and '90s, I don't see much substance I could put into it from these sources (which are the best I could find). If the article is going to be more than a catalogue or summary of the films in which he had a greater hand, I think we need more and better sources than what I list here:
- In his book Mortgaging the Earth, Bruce Rich writes about Claxton and his film The Price of Progress. Rich says that Claxton won an Emmy for Seeds of Despair, but I haven't found any sources that corroborate the claim that Claxton (as the film's producer) personally won the Emmy. When the film won a Peabody Award, the recipient was Central Independent Television. The 1986 Year Book and The Americana Annual say that CIT won the Emmy for Seeds of Despair. The Emmy search engine didn't return any hits. I also browsed through the documentary categories on Emmys.com for each year in which one of these films is meant to have won; again, no hits. Is there a more comprehensive resource for Emmy winners?
- The Price of Progress is covered in The Latin American Times. It seems to have gotten a four-star rating in the Video Rating Guide for Libraries.
- The Hidden Hand is discussed in Horizon, a Zimbabwean magazine.
- A piece in New Statesman Society praises Do They Feel My Shadow? before its release.
- Linda McCartney: Behind the Lens won a CableACE Award after it was rebroadcast in the United States. The film was on display in a retrospective of McCartney's photography.
- Suffer the Children is mentioned in the magazine West Africa.
- A writer for the Royal Geographical Society's magazine Geographical says "Claxton is perhaps best known for his Emmy Award-winning film Seeds of Despair".

- Comment firstly I'd like to commend your extensive search for sources and your intention to produce a high class article. Unfortunately I can't seem to magnify the Google book results but I trust your judgement However, I think the paragraphs about Claxton in the book "Mortgaging the Earth" and his lesser coverage in other RS such as The Times article allow WP:BASIC to be passed and a stubb class article to be maintained until better sources occurr that would allow for a high class article.

The thing that stimies me about film and television producers is it's often unclear what their creative involvement was. When a film wins prestigious awards, that doesn't automatically confer notability to everyone involved with the film. In this self-written bio, he says he "made" Cry, Ethiopia, Cry, but his Wikipedia article says he was a "joint producer". What he actually did remains vague. —Ringbang (talk) 03:58, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
- I think from this source [48] he was joint producer and as such when the film won the award it was received by both producers as is the case at the Oscars for best film. Atlantic306 (talk) 01:09, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
- Those producer credits appear on all those Frontline programme info pages. It's not a list of the Emmy recipients. I've found no document that names the recipients. Ringbang (talk) 04:15, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

- Delete: There just isn't enough solid coverage about him to meet WP:GNG, or any of the other notability criteria. Article would also likely need serious rewriting in order to not qualify for CSD G11, IMHO. This article also suffers from far too much WP:OR for my tastes on top of the WP:PROMO aspects.

- Keep Her IMDB credits appear extensive, including recurring roles on notable shows. ShelbyMarion (talk) 23:41, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
- Keep agree with previous comment, also notable as a top model, 44 screen credits and one of those was for 44 episodes of a soap opera, also appearances in Dallas, 6 episodes, and Star Trek Next Generation, 3 episodes. I think notability guidelines are passed.Atlantic306 (talk) 01:44, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
- Then why have neither of you provided sourcing to back this claim up? These articles aren't just about WP:NACTOR – they're about WP:BASIC, and a BLP article with zero sourcing, and no additional sourcing provided during AfD, should be deleted on sight. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 16:56, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

- Keep but a weak one. She's clearly had lots of roles and is a professional actor; problem is, not much in-depth coverage of her. I'm somewhat on the fence but note that there is interest in her in Wikipedia (an unofficial measure) but almost 90 pageviews per day suggests (for me) inclusion.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 23:16, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

- Comment - Please note that simply having a certain number of works and such are simply not enough for actually better satisfying WP:ENTERTAINER. With actuality, this article would need improvements and with no one taking the efforts and time, this is best deleted until better is available. SwisterTwister talk 06:06, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
- Comment the number of credits does matter as per criteria3 of WP:ENT Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment.A large number of credits could be considered prolific, looking for RS. Atlantic306 (talk) 20:22, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, couldn't find much at all except [51] although don't have any advanced search engines, just the google.Atlantic306 (talk) 18:47, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - Don't agree with Atlantic306's assessment of the third criteria for WP:ENT. Using that definition, there are literally thousands of extras who would qualify for a Wikipedia page. I personally know probably over 100 people who have each been in over 100 films. None of them notable. The two best roles this person has is the Dead Men Walking credit, while the second is as Humpty Dumpty in a soft porn film (not a notable film). Other than that, his roles are simply not significant, or the films/videos/shorts are not notable. Therefore he does not pass WP:NACTOR or WP:ENT, nor is there enough in-depth coverage to show he passes WP:GNG. I will say his imdb bio is a perfect example of why that is not a reliable source.
