Non-notable actor. Stub does not satisfy the primary notability criterion (non-trivial coverage in multiple, independent, reliable sources). Only one source provided, does not source dubious claims of near-uniqueness made in article, and really, having a "featured extra" bit part in one episode of a sitcom (his only known acting credit!) does not make for an encyclopedia-worthy personage. Already adequately covered at the (misnamed) List of Seinfeld recurring characters. Stub appears to have survived speedy deletion for no apparent reason, so I'm bringing it here. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 23:03, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete if that's the only thing he did. And surely there were American actors who portrayed Stalin or Hitler before Seinfeld ever aired... Maybe I don't understand the claim, but that seems like an absurd thing to say, and since that's the closest thing to notability he's got, definitely delete.

- Here's a whole page listing people who played Hitler, many of them Americans: [1] Given that this episode came out many years ago, and I'm not aware of any brouhaha over it, saying it is "potentially controversial" is silly. If it hasn't been controversial yet, it's not likely to be in the future, and why would it? Actors play evil people all the time, no one judges the actors for their character's real-life actions.

- Delete. It was funny, but it does not confer notability. --Dhartung | Talk 05:45, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Too trivial to be notable. Anton Ego (talk) 22:48, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete -- I agree with nomination, non notable actor. --SSman07 (talk) 21:59, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
