Keep. It's a close call. This was Nominated and kept before. The article is barely more than a stub and is poorly written and referenced, but this actor has had roles in film, numerous TV shows (dozens of guest-starring roles on major TV series), and theatre. Especially for an actor of color, I'd err on the side of keeping. If anyone has the time to research more references, that would be very helpful. -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Those appearances on TV series are in roles described generically as "Male Juror", "College Interviewer", "Annoyed Neighbor", etc. (with very few exceptions), hardly indicative of guest star status. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:03, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Also, there is only one "source" about him specifically, and that's just a two-film filmography, so a big WP:GNG fail. WP:HESADISADVANTAGEDCOLORSOLETSGIVEHIMABREAK is not a valid argument. Clarityfiend (talk) 22:31, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
