Non-notable actor, he played minor roles such as cops, a helmsman and a handyman in TV movies/mini-series according to IMDB. He also was stunt double in yet another TV movie. And acting in commercials certainly isn't notable (unless it's a celebrity tie-in or the like). SpeakFree (talk)(contribs) 23:20, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- keep Notable actor with notable roles backup by verifiable reliable third party sources. And two nominations on one day... Night of the Big Wind talk 23:33, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- If a PROD is contested an AFD may follow per WP:CONTESTED:
- "If anyone, including the article creator, removes a {{proposed deletion}} tag from an article, do not replace it, even if the tag was apparently removed in bad faith. This excludes removals that are clearly not an objection to deletion, such as page blanking or obvious vandalism, and tags removed by banned users may be restored. If you still believe that the article needs to be deleted, or that the article should be deleted but with discussion, list it on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion."

- Use the {{prod}} tag, for articles which do not meet the criteria for speedy deletion, but are uncontroversial deletion candidates. This allows the article to be deleted after seven days if nobody objects. For more information, see Wikipedia:Proposed deletion. That is what WP:FAILN tells me.

- And when someone objects WP:CONTESTED applies and an AFD may follow (precisely to let others weigh into the discussion so it doesn't become a tit-for-tat between two people). SpeakFree (talk)(contribs) 00:32, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Löschen. WP:NACTOR requires more notability than the subject of this article has. I note that the article references an appearance in Jesse Stone: Innocents Lost, but the subject is not credited in the article or other official sources. Clearly, the role was not a major one.

- sorry, correct a type in your textInnocents Lost was indeed a difficult one. I was doubting if I should add that. The source for that was a real difficult one: my (distant) cousin Mitchell Landzaat himself. That is also why I took care of proper sourcing, to avoid of a conflict of interest. For his role in "Shattered City" I like to point at the article Halifax Explosion, to be able to make a better judgement of his role as helmsman.

- I'm sure you are aware of WP:COI. I have fallen into that trap myself on Dutch wiki. BTW I can't find any notable sources when I search for +"Mitchell Landzaat" +"Shattered City" on Google. IMDB and other user created sites generally don't count (see WP:ELPEREN). If you can find something like an article about him or one of his parts in a major film magazine or a well-known film site that could change the outcome of the debate considerable.

- I am, don't be afraid. But I was not aware that IMDB was not acceptable as source. And I think it will be news to a few thousand other editors... Night of the Big Wind talk 01:04, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Especially Dutch editors who are not accustomed to the requirements stated in WP:VER on the English Wikipedia. IMDB can be used as an external link but in most cases can't be used to prove notability. SpeakFree (talk)(contribs) 01:19, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- I will normally use IMDB for an overview of the roles an actor played, not for the biography. For the overview the IMDB looks reliable to me. Night of the Big Wind talk 11:09, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - No coverage in independent reliable sources, and the body of work itself is not indicative of notability. -- Whpq (talk) 17:08, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as per WP:NACTOR and lack of indepth coverage in independent third party sources. Stuartyeates (talk) 21:44, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
