[edit] Kevin M. Connolly
Completing a nomination. Notability is questionable here: the article only claims this actor doing dubbing of few anime. Tizio 12:46, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
- Delete — insufficient notability. — ERcheck (talk) 13:59, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Notability is not established. He may hit it big someday but not yet. --Crunch 15:56, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. He is sufficiently notable by this point, with a lead role in one of FUNimation's titles (Rumbling Hearts) and several important roles in other series. --EmperorBrandon 16:00, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. Lead actor in an anime notable enough for WP, with other sufficient other roles for an article. --Masamage ♫ 18:50, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep He's had many credits including that of a main character. That should be enough to satisfy WP:N. Just because you don't think doing dubbing of anime isn't notable doesn't mean it isn't. Please read up on the person before you nominate them for notability. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 19:17, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
- Sure, he's a honest worker. I mean, he's worked a lot, in a lot of anime. Now please go ahead and find someone else who has written about him, such as, say, written his biography (his resume' and the list of his jobs don't count, of course). That's the point of WP:N, certainly not "He is notable because I think he is". Tizio 23:27, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
- The point is that there be sufficient extant information to make a factual article. A guideline from the page on notability of people says: "The following criteria make it likely that sufficient reliable information is available about a given person. People who satisfy at least one of these criteria probably merit their own Wikipedia articles, as there is likely to be a good deal of verifiable information available about them and a good deal of public interest in them." Included among these criteria are "Entertainers ... With significant roles in notable films, television, stage performances, and other productions." --Masamage ♫ 23:43, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

- Keep, voice actor in notable cartoons, including a role as a main character. Establishes notability and meets the criteria. Voretus 10:42, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. He has the requisite credits, and if nothing else deleting him would leave us a bunch of redlinks. His article is neither defamatory nor spam, and he meets the criteria for entertainers that have "significant roles (aka was the main character) in notable films, television, stage performances, and other productions." --tjstrf talk 06:29, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
