[edit] Aimo Fontenot

Actor with no presence on imdb. I proded it, but User:Laceymichelle claims he is well-known in the Seychelles. Eivind^t@c 05:08, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

• Comment absolutely no ghits [1] in any language anywhere. Ah, but yahoo has served me well with one hit, [2], but this seems to be a magnet for adhits for yahoo (I knew there was a reason I don't use it) and it takes forever and a half to load on a superfast connection, and so far has no information. Wait!! It's a wikipedia mirror. And a very bad one. I hope you all enjoyed this vicarious experience of my internet experience. How meta is that? Back to business Delete as unverifiable, unless actual source can be found. Mak (talk) 05:29, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per Mak. At best, this guy is very much under the notability radar, but I sort of scent some hoax here as well. Trademark mustache, diehard Marxist? Hm. --Deville (Talk) 05:42, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, nn, probaly hoax. --Terence Ong 15:27, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep because it's not a hoax. Have you ever been to Seychelles? Do you know about the Seychellois film industry? His work itself isn't big, nor is he big internationally, but in Seychelles, he is very well-known. Just because it seems like a hoax to you is not fair reason to delete it.

• Plus, Imdb is considering giving him his own actor page right now. (Coolerthanallie 00:33, 9 April 2006 (UTC))
  • Whether he is a hoax or not, he is still unverfied (no one has found any actual publication which mentions him). If you can find a publication from Seychelles which mentions him even if in a language other than English, that would help a lot. Mak (talk) 01:46, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

Comment Imdb.com doesn't "consider giving actors their own page", they work just like Wikipedia, by user submitions. Maybe you should submit Aimo Fontenot yourself there, as they, unlike wikipedia, doesn't have any notability criteria. --Eivind^t@c 01:35, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete for no positive verifiability or sourcing of subject's identity or notability. MCB 06:42, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
• Imdb.com consideres giving actors their own page just like WIkipedia does. I meant the community Imdb, not an owner or anything. Basically debate is going around the Internet Movie Database about wether or not to give Mr. Fontenot hos own actor page. (Coolerthanallie 16:19, 9 April 2006 (UTC))
• Delete per lack of WP:V sourcing.--Isotope23 16:25, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete since the community of Imdb.com decided against giving this guy his own page. (TheChris 04:06, 11 April 2006 (UTC))
