The result was delete. The "keep" argument that it is enough to be a film actor is not in line with the relevant notability guideline at WP:NACTOR. JohnCD (talk) 16:01, 3 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Only 1 source to the Swedish equivalent of IMDb. Fails WP:BIO. Both of the movies he was in had no high calibre awards or praises. (Fantasporto and Screamfest Horror Film Festival) Bluefist talk 23:32, 19 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Was in two films that might not meet the notability standard themselves (will need to look into that). No major awards, seems a minor indie actor who fails WP:NACTOR SeaphotoTalk 23:59, 19 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - a film actor defines a person with roles in "films". This actor has had roles in films. Its not relevant if the films themselves recieved praise or not. I say keep.--BabbaQ (talk) 16:48, 26 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Wikipedia defines an article with coverage in "sources". This actor has not had coverage in sources. It's not relevant if the coverage was praise or not. I say delete. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 19:37, 26 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Löfberg is in the swedish database of actors. So he is an actor.. the article doesnt claim anything else. Successfull movies or not...he is still an actor.--BabbaQ (talk) 21:44, 26 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - Working in a profession is not an indicator of notability; a good example is that writing a book does not make one a notable author. Please see the Wikipedia notability guide for actors. SeaphotoTalk 08:20, 27 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- I dont buy that.... In that case any actor that arent in a blockbuster american film is an NON-actor. Wikipedia isnt America is the world. This is a Swedish "actor"....the article doesnt claim anything else. He has had roles in two Swedish movies, which atleaat one of them was a success in Swedish cinema. I still say Keep.--BabbaQ (talk) 12:40, 27 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Please note that the notability standard says that an actor must have been in multiple notable films; nowhere is there anything about these being American. There is no argument that the gentleman is not an Actor, of course he is. The question is whether he meets the Wikipedia threshold of notability for Actors. If you disagree with the standards of WP:NOTABILITY then the place to make your argument is the talk page of that standard, not here.SeaphotoTalk 00:45, 30 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
