[edit] Lewis Philpott

A young actor whose only real credit seems to be a minor role in Batman Begins. The article seems to claim some sort of notability so I am not sure if this can be speedied. GabrielF 00:07, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Deletion does not seem appropriate considering this is a person just trying to make himself seen. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gjoyce06 (talk • contribs)
    • That high school play that made it on to the community TV station should give me a Wikipedia article too! Speedy delete :: Colin Keigher 00:38, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
  • in my opinion, this website and the internet in general is all about acknowledgement. i agree with the above statement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gjoyce06 (talk • contribs)
    • Comment Wikipedia is not to be used for promotional purposes; subjects of biographies on Wikipedia should already be notable. OhNoitsJamie Talk 00:29, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete reads like an attack page (or possibly just nonsense) and the IMDB doesn't back up the claim of having been in Batman Begins, either. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 00:24, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete The only reason this wasn't deleted was because it made a claim (perhaps a false one) of notability. No Google hits support the claims made in the article; this invididual is not listed in IMDB, which most would consider a bare minimum of notability for WP:BIO criteria related to an actor.

  • Could it be because of a minor role? I'm gonna check out the film credits on the DVD, will keep all posted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gjoyce06 (talk • contribs)
    • Comment A minor role that is not even listed on imdb's entry for Batman Begins will not satisify WP:BIO requirments. OhNoitsJamie Talk 00:32, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
  • CommentMe again. Found one link about a stage role he had:

    Because it's a biography of a living person, so we have to take care of it. We can't have 7 billion biographies here. Ashibaka tock 00:43, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete, no evidence that subject meets WP:BIO. --Kinu t/c 01:01, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Speedy delete. Looks mostly like an attack page to me. And yeah, it doesn't fit WP:BIO. My uncle was an extra in an 80's movie; does that make him notable? Definitely not. 1ne 03:27, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
