doesn't meet any notability criteria: fails WP:GNG, fails WP:BASIC and fails WP:ANYBIO. Moreover, some of sources are not enough and not reliable and include blogs and similar. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 10:47, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Hazzard was a big gay porn star and won several awards including best actor. Slate described him as "He was the kind of old-school marquee star that the porn industry rarely produces anymore".1 But he has gotten some work and coverage outside of porn. Most of that was for his role in Tiger Orange, and received praise for his performance from many critics, some of which are already in the article, but also Variety and The Hollywood Reporter.2 3 He also was on the television series The Lair for two seasons, and while his music single wasn't a chart success, did receive some mention in press in the Billboard ref in the article, and in a piece from Out about porn stars pursuing music ventures.4 Meets GNG and WP:ENT in my opinion.

Keep I'm not convinced that the awards demonstrate notability much, but the sigcov in the Slate article in conjunction with with significant mentions in multiple other very reliable sources is enough to demonstrate WP:GNG Sulfurboy (talk) 22:13, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, easily meets GNG, the rest is clean-up which is not what AfD is for. Gleeanon409 (talk) 09:25, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I am happy to see I was wrong. Still, I can see a few problems with the sourcing and it would be great if some of you could contribute helping me to improve this article. See please number 3 a blog, number 6 which appears to me just a mention, number 10 which is a commercial web site (ch1) and number 11 which I don't understand what it is. thank you. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 23:56, 27 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
