Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Les Mahoney

Not really sure how this works, but as there are many actors who are not "notable" but still busy in the filmmaking world, i hardly think singling out this article for deletion is appropriate.

This article seems very promotional and I don't think this person is notable; a lot of the references cited seem to be unreliable blogs wizzito | say hello! 23:51, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator comment: In particular, a lot of the films he's starred in aren't even notable enough to have pages on WP. wizzito | say hello! 23:52, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't say this article is very promotional. The awards are mentioned, that's right, but there are also sources available ([1]). The citation style is horrible and has to be improved - no doubt. I would say as the article is not really up-to-date, it should be updated first and then it's easier to say sth about WP:NACTOR. So far: weak keep.Tec Tom (talk) 18:09, 23 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It needs work, but at least one of the sources looks OK to me. I would prefer it be tagged for improvement than deleted outright. Hanjaf1 (talk) 05:09, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've cleaned it up a bit, inlining the citations that weren't dead links. It's still marginal, but there might be newer links out there. Hanjaf1 (talk) 06:00, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Good job, Hanjaf1! Thank you. I've added some more information.Tec Tom (talk) 13:07, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. After reviewing his IMDB, it seems like he is best known for acting in and directing non-notable b-movies. KidAd • SPEAK 18:12, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
