Lacks notability; only one notable role for a few years on One Life to Live. Bgsu98 (talk) 00:19, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Actors and filmmakers and New Jersey. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 07:38, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
- Keep He is notable because of his multi-year role on One Life to Live, backed by the reliable and verifiable sources needed to establish notability. Alansohn (talk) 18:06, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
- NACTOR specifies multiple notable roles. Jack Manning appears to be the only notable role. Bgsu98 (talk) 20:04, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
- Bgsu98, the word "multiple" does not appear in WP:NACTOR. Alansohn (talk) 02:03, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- “Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions” Bgsu98 (talk) 02:06, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- Bgsu98, you are referencing Wikipedia:Notability (films), which is about films, the kind shown in movie theaters; he is an actor who has appeared in more than 100 episodes of a soap opera, the kind they show on television. Furthermore, the quote you cite doesn't appear there. The article meets WP:N, even if it doesn't meet your misreading of Wikipedia:Notability (films). Alansohn (talk) 17:29, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
- Alansohn: No, I am not referencing Wikipedia:Notability (films). I am referencing WP:NACTOR, which is a subsection of Wikipedia:Notability (people). It states:
- Entertainers
- Actors, voice actors, comedians, opinion makers, pornographic actors, models, and celebrities:
- Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions; or
- Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment.
- It states that for an actor to be notable, he must have had "significant roles" in "multiple notable films [and/or] television shows." Andrew Trischitta had one notable role on One Life to Live, and that was it. And please don't speak to me like I'm an idiot. "...a soap opera, the kind they show on television." No, really?

- Bgsu98, you were the one who linked to Wikipedia:Notability (films), not me. Trischitta appeared in 126 episodes and meets WP:N. You have never addressed that. Alansohn (talk) 20:15, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

- Redirect to One Life to Live, since his appearance there seems to be the only thing even vaguely notable he has done.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:50, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
- Johnpacklambert you are arguing to delete the article (a redirect would have the same net result as a redirect) because "the only thing even vaguely notable he has done" is to appear in 126 episodes of a major soap opera? Alansohn (talk) 17:29, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
- If the only thing vaguely notable about someone is an appearance in one show thatn yes, we normally redirect to the article on the show and do not have a freestanding article on the subject.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:30, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
- Johnpacklambert, can you point me to the consensus that 126 appearances is "vaguely notable"? One or two, I'd agree with you. But 126!?!?! Alansohn (talk) 17:45, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

- Delete one notable role, but reliable no sources found, leaning delete. Two pages in GNews, only mentioning him in passing. Unsure if the award is notable. Even the sources used in the article are only passing mentions, simply confirming he existed. Oaktree b (talk) 01:32, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Only one notable role, therefore does not meet WP:NACTOR. LibStar (talk) 04:14, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
