[edit] Pierre-Benoist Varoclier

Pierre-Benoist Varoclier (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This nomination is (sort of) on behalf of an anonymous user, who said, in [1]

"The same page has been deleted from the French version of Wikipedia, as Pierre-Benoist Varoclier didn't fulfil the required criterias (Varoclier appears in many movies, which explains why he has a page on IMDB, but never played any significant part and therefore can be considered not notable). He also was suspected of having created the page himself for autopromotion."

. Indeed, for his supposedly only role in a "big" film, Mr. Bean, the IMDB says he's uncredited (i.e. at best he acted a waiter in a half-scene, I can't tell), while UniFrance lists only 2 additional films, for which he's credited... last on the list, if that's the measure of importance. Can't find any independent reviews other than miscellaneous film databases. Actually, his home page at http://pbv.free.fr/ has several more roles from 2006/2007, but can't tell about their significance. Duja► 14:43, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

• Delete no assertion of notability in this article. You cannot rely on transwiki notability, but I could suppose that not meeting notability on the French Wikipedia does not bode well here. Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 19:32, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. I can find no information that contradicts the findings of either the nom here or our colleagues at the French Wikipedia. No assertion of notability. I have no objection to recreating the article if the subject lands a major role. ZZ ^Claims ~ Evidence 14:59, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
