[edit] Tony T. Roberts
Minor performer, notability not established or sourced per WP:BIO.RJASE1 Talk 16:15, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. Has performed on three major stand up comedy shows, has appeared in movies and has links to his own website as well as IMDB. Seems notable enough. Kntrabssi 16:18, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
- "Links to his own website" - how does that confer notability? And IMDB has entries on every bit player, make-up artist and grip in Hollywood - hardly a badge of notability. RJASE1 Talk 16:27, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
- He was not a make-up artist or a grip, he was an actor. We have an article on Louis C.K., who hasn't done much more than Roberts. Kntrabssi 16:39, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
- Got multiple, non-trivial, reliable sources per WP:BIO? Also see WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. RJASE1 Talk 05:13, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, WjBscribe 00:10, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. Has a few TV appearances, looks like he got at least one appearance on HBO, and got a BET award. BET is prominent, HBO has their bar of entry - so with that, he's weakly notable. Somebody wanna improve this? --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 01:14, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. Multiple TV appearances, a number of published performances, references... he's not LBJ, but he's suitably notable. Lemonsawdust 06:57, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Weak Keep, on the basis of the BET award, but why are the other AfD's not linked to here? If the article title was different, lacking the 'period', they should still be linked to this AfD.--killing sparrows 06:59, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- comment - with outside refs, this should be kept. afd is about the article, and it doesnt cut it. the_undertow talk 08:51, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Weak KeepNot entirely convinced, but he has been on nationally known shows, and seems to be famous at least enough for an IMDB entry. Jmlk17 19:21, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Thousands of non-notable persons have IMDb entries. Anyone credited as "Man No. 2" or "Woman leaving Grocery" in even one film can have an IMDb entry. Having an IMDb entry is no test of notability whatsoever. --Charlene 21:29, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
