Not notable Canadian actor. Likeshook (talk) 20:54, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies to Dwayne. Deleting the article does not mean you are a bad person or a flunkie.

WP:Entertainer states "Actors, voice actors, comedians, opinion makers, models, and celebrities:

Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions.

Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following.

Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment.

This article has been around for 10 years but Adams neither had significant roles in multiple notable films, lacks a large fan base, and has not made notable contributions. Likeshook (talk) 20:58, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Likeshook, would you strike your above !vote. The nomination in itself is your opinion to delete. — Sam Sailor 14:34, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Removed the word "delete" but kept the rest because it explains the reasoning for the AFD. Likeshook (talk) 20:48, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Filmography outside "Skinnamarink TV" is nothing but non-notable bit parts, such as "Attendee #2," "Customer #1," "Manager" and "Painter." sixtynine ^{• speak up •} 00:36, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Actor credited only in minor roles, fails WP:NACTOR. Nothing to support WP:ANYBIO and no sources found to support subject meets WP:BASIC. Delete per WP:DEL8. — Sam Sailor 14:30, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete' not enough significant roles to pass our notability guidelines.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:52, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I can't find any substantive coverage of him on ProQuest — of the 27 hits I get, 18 of them are about a Bermudian soccer player, and of the seven which are actually about a Canadian actor all seven just namecheck his existence and exactly zero of them are substantively about him. And no role named here (or in his IMDb profile) is "major" enough to grant him a presumption of notability in the absence of a demonstrable WP:GNG pass either — as always, Wikipedia is not a place where an actor is automatically entitled to an article just because he exists.

Delete Might be a case of WP:TOOSOON. The individual needs a few more major roles to meet WP:NACTOR. Without more WP:SIGCOV I'm inclined to !vote delete. Mkdw ^talk 05:44, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
