Delete another non-notable entertainer.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:57, 3 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Subject does not meet general notability nor notability for entertainers. Fails. AuthorAuthor (talk) 04:45, 3 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
For reference, my PROD concern was 'Non-notable magician. Not significantly covered in reliable sources. Fails WP:ANYBIO. His stage productions don't appear to be notable so he fails WP:ENT.' It should be said that the article has changed significantly then and I haven't yet reviewed it properly, though glancing over it there appears to be rather a lot of original research and a lack of reliable sources.

Delete: having trimmed the edited article of some original research, the only new claim to notability is that he was the subject of a TV episode on Animal Planet. This still fails WP:ENT and WP:CREATIVE. PriceDL (talk) 13:38, 3 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- As expected, my previous edit was reverted. I have no interest in pushing for the changes as I feel the article should be instead deleted, but please be aware that a lot of the content is back to being original research and a lot of the content that appears sourced is in fact not backed up by the sources.
