• Delete. Notability not established by any independent references. The so-called "article" about his movie role emanates from a Wikipedia edit by the same author as this article, almost two years ago. See [1]. WWGB (talk) 12:32, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
• What exactly is wrong with this page? Its well written and referenced, it deals with a well respected and well know actor and television personality in Ireland, if articles are to be deleted purely on the bases that concern people who are no well know outside there home country there would be thousands or articles in need of the same treatment. Clearly whoever tagged this is not an Irish resident. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Talkback09 (talk • contribs) 12:41, 18 May 2008

Referenced? It is referenced to something that you wrote in July 2006, here. WWGB (talk) 12:55, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

• Delete notability not established; no gnews hits, few ghits are blogs/myspace/etc.  Frank  |  talk  13:03, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

• SAVE Is Mr. WWGB high raking in the Irish Film Board, thats the only way I can explain him know about the cancellation of this film, while their lates news letter mentions it. (WmddP (talk) 13:08, 18 May 2008 (UTC)). — WmddP (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. .

• Comment - this article is not about a film; it's about an actor. Also, the decision to delete or not delete is not based on one editor and neither is it based on people's rank in society or industry. It's based on consensus, which is what this page is about. WP:ILIKEIT is not a reason to have an article in Wikipedia. We will see what consensus develops for this article regarding keep or delete. In the meantime, you are welcome to improve the article by adding to its content and finding reliable sources to cite notability of the actor. It is a distinct possibility that improving the article will result in a decision to keep it.  Frank  |  talk  13:13, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
• Comment - Oh! Sorry Frank, I had both articles open in tabs, my mistake. —Preceding unsigned comment added by WmddP (talk • contribs) 13:16, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

• Delete Per nom. Insufficient coverage to pass WP:BIO. Guliolopez (talk) 14:02, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete No sources given that show his notability or anything about him. Steve Dufour (talk) 14:30, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete the only real assertion of notability is having been in Angela's Ashes (film) and yet he is not listed as a cast member in that article... Beeblbrox (talk) 18:42, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

comment Also Clearly whoever tagged this is not an Irish resident is a totally irrelevant observation. If the sources are out there, anyone can use them to establish notability no matter where they live. Beeblbrox (talk) 19:03, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
