[edit] Levi Montoya

Vanity/non-n. See Google results.[1] Mad Jack O'Lantern 20:29, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

I am a talent manager for the actor, Levi Montoya. I am the primary author of this page and I'd like some assistance - if possible - in keeping this article in Wikipedia.—Preceding unsigned comment added by DMon Films (talk • contribs)
  • Delete. No IMDB page. Teenager who's done a couple of short subjects. Wikipedia does not exist to promote aspiring actors. Fan1967 22:26, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
Both Levi Montoya (actor) and the film, O Best Beloved, Six Honest Men have recently been submitted to IMDb, and are being considered for publication on the database. I represent Levi Montoya, as does Dani's Agency of Phoenix, AZ. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.162.150.31 (talk • contribs)
  • Comment The problem is that he will then be an actor whose only credit is a short subject. Since there is no distribution for short subjects, this means that it will be seen by a handful of people who attend a few indy film festivals. Not only will 99% of people never see it, they will never even hear of it. Fan1967 01:15, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Non-notable, promotional article, no IMDb page. *drew 01:04, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
Not only has this actor starred in the short subject film, but he co-stars in a feature length film - currently in production in Los Angeles. Furthermore, IMDb regards short subject films sufficient for listing on its database. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.162.150.31 (talk • contribs)
  • What feature-length film would that be? All of the links to supposed movies in the article go to non-movie articles. As for short subject films qualifying for IMDb, there's just one problem with that -- Wikipedia is not IMDb. If we were, we would've reached that millionth article a hell of a lot sooner. Combined with an absolute failure of the Google test and no other notion of notability in the article, delete and note that this just about borders on speedy delete.

  • Comment Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Movies "in production" are given no weight unless they are extremely high-profile and verifiable (a new James Bond feature, for example). Many movies are reported in production and never get made. Others get made and go straight to video, or are never commercially released at all. Fan1967 13:21, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
