Completely unsourced WP:BLP of an actor and recording engineer, not making any claim to passage of either WP:NACTOR or WP:NMUSIC. The only notability claim on offer here is that he exists -- but the notability test for an actor is not passed just by saying that he's had roles, and the notability test for sound engineers is not passed just by saying that they exist. For either occupation, the notability test is passed by supporting the article with reliable source coverage that externally validates the significance of their work, such as by showing that they won major awards for it or critically analyzing their work in depth. There's just nothing here that's "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to pass WP:GNG on the sourcing, and even on a deep database search the only source I can find is a glancing namecheck of his existence in an article about a band he worked with as an engineer, which isn't enough.

Delete I find nothing other than his name in a list in GBooks for productions made in Canada for consumption in the US market. Oaktree b (talk) 15:59, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Wikipedia has way too many articles sourced only the non-reliable IMDb. It is time for this to change.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:07, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I'm finding nothing in a deep dive for sources - other than perhaps a sound credit on an album. I do though question User:Johnpacklambert's delete vote, given his long history of drive-by delete voting without enough (or any) time to research a vote; this one being only 4 minutes (and 3 edits) after an impossibly quick vote at WP:Articles for deletion/Erasmo Gómez.
