CitingWikipedia:Articles for deletion/Argiris Karras as precedent, actors who are only notable for their appearance on "Degrassi: The Next Generation", and have little (ie. IMDb) to none sources, should be redirected to List of Degrassi: The Next Generation characters. 117Avenue (talk) 22:01, 28 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep. The cited "precedent" resulted in a redirect without deletion; therefore, there is no basis for bringing the matter to AFD rather than pursuing normal editorial processes. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 17:23, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 15:00, 5 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. This article is more than just a fan page for an actor only in one show - he also is in a band, outside of the television show Degrassi, that has been mentioned in newspapers. The band itself is mentionable because it is a group of men that did meet on the show but includes other musicians, and they are performing around Canada. Although the band has not recieved mass covereage yet, and thus might not be considered notable, the fact that he is in an outside project that has been covered by sources makes him notable. Or at least, it means he is not not notable. Barbiegurl676 (talk) 17:50, 6 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well before we call them the next Drake, what makes the band notable? Or are they just mentioned in the news because they are Degrassi actors? 117Avenue (talk) 18:56, 6 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – Multiple sources have reported on his involvement in the musical group, and there's an interview with him in Seventeen. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 22:23, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or redirect to List of Degrassi: The Next Generation characters#D . A Google News Archive search turned up just 6 articles that mention him and none that actually cover him. The band he belongs to, SoundSpeed, may or may not be notable.[1][2] --A. B. ^{(talk • contribs)} 01:58, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
