Robert Newman (actor)

Not notable - vanity? Brookie 19:37, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep and expand, or at the very least mark it as a stub. The Wikipedians that are working on the soap opera articles currently have been making separate ones for each and every actor who stared in a soap opera. Zzyzx11 01:04, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep Random nomination of one of many in a class of articles whose acceptibility is established by precedent. Wincoote 09:04, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, just under the bar of notability for me. Megan1967 07:04, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Megan once again votes the opposite of the current majority vote. This is a noteable actor in his field. Keep. RickK 07:06, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
    • Voting should not be about playing follow the leader. Megan1967 04:09, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
      • Nor should the vote be cast solely to be contrary. RickK 00:09, Feb 20, 2005 (UTC)
        • I'm not here to be contrary. I'm here to make Wikipedia better. Megan1967 02:32, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Appearing in three network programs is plenty notable. Gamaliel 07:08, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Well known, part of one of Guiding Light's only supercouples. Just because you don't watch soaps doesn't mean these people aren't famous. Mike H 10:21, Feb 20, 2005 (UTC)
  • Clearly keep, as a notable actor. - Vague | Rant 10:28, Feb 20, 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment: I've done a slight rewrite of the article, showing notability (nominated for four Soap Opera Digest Awards and one Daytime Emmy, supercouple history with Kim Zimmer). Mike H 10:48, Feb 20, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. "Vanity" doesn't mean "I'm clueless" - it means he or a close associate put the article there - David Gerard 22:58, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    • Please be civil, Brookie is only trying to improve Wikipedia. And note that the article was rewritten between the nomination and your comment. Radiant! 12:24, Feb 21, 2005 (UTC)
      • Personally, the article established sufficient notability even then. Mike H 21:52, Feb 21, 2005 (UTC)
        • Either way, David's personal attack on Brookie was uncalled for, as per the policy on Civility. Radiant! 10:34, Feb 25, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, spurious notability. JamesBurns 07:01, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
