Cannot find any independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources - lack of WP:SIGCOV. Fails WP:BIO and WP:NACTOR. Run-of-the-mill actor/businessman. Promotional article, created by a WP:SPA. Edwardx (talk) 23:04, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I also can't find any indication of notability or significant coverage, and the article was very misleading, suggesting he'd 'starred' in four major soaps, whereas actually two actors who between them had done appeared in the short film he directed. I've cleared that up, but the article still claims a series of short film appearances that aren't referenced and haven't found their way into IMDb. Mortee (talk) 20:48, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Seconding the above comment. I searched his name with keywords such as "writer" and "actor" in Google, and all that came up were links under his control. Also, the editor who created this article back in 2008, in addition to many of the editors that touched the page afterward, seem to have only edited this page. While that doesn't necessarily imply conflict of interest on its own, it does in this case given the fact that there's no references included in this article. So where is this information coming from? CanoeUnlined (talk) 03:41, 3 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
