I actually did WP:BEFORE, but unfortunately these are the only reliable sources I found were his interview about his voice for Albert Wesker [1] [2], which is not WP:SIGCOV. Trivial mentioned sources like this [3] aren't helpful for GNG. Aside from that, the article has a lot of unreliable sources, COI and OWN issues by the actor itself. 🍕Boneless Pizza!🍕 (🔔) 04:01, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep He seems to pass the subject-specific notability guideline of WP:NACTOR due to his numerous roles in notable works of media, and prolific acting career. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:40, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep. I suggest the nominator familiarize themselves with WP:NACTOR which is on the generous side. Douglas easily has enough roles in significant productions to qualify. The borderline cases for NACTOR are like "one moderately successful role, no sources at all on personal life, some minor stuff nobody cares about," which this topic is light-years ahead of.

Keep. Even NACTOR aside, multiple sources write about things that Douglas posts, like this. As for COI and OWN issues, the former is easily rectified by any one other editor verifying whether there's NPOV issues or not; the latter, I don't see anything suggesting Douglas is edit warring, at least not recently. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 07:37, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Passes NACTOR. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 08:29, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, even if the article is messy it meets WP:NACTOR, and possibly GNG (albeit weakly) per Cukie. The conflict of interest is better off bringing up at the associated noticeboard. λ NegativeMP1 08:33, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Withdraw I apologize for not being familiar with WP:NACTOR. 🍕Boneless Pizza!🍕 (🔔) 08:54, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
