Keep appears to be notable, seems to have done a lot more than the nom has suggested. Jenuk1985 | Talk 21:56, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: Well, Ok. But to me he does not meet the criteria for more specific WP:ENTERTAINER. --Sc straker (talk) 22:04, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - He has been in many different productions but only two of them seem notable, the bear commercial and Sweet Land. However his role in Sweet Land was not a significant one, and he therefore does not met WP:ENTERTAINER. --Megaboz (talk) 23:47, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - the refrences demonstrate he is a working actor, but not one that is notable. The article overstates the coverage. For example, being "featured" in Playbill is no more than being mentioned as one of the actors in the announcment about a play. -- Whpq (talk) 18:12, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep legitimate professional credits including NY stage. Claim to fame commercial has gained international press. Actor is listed on other reputable sites such as IMDB. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.83.246.129 (talk) 16:16, 7 March 2009 (UTC) striking sockpuppet comment. MBisanz ^talk 19:44, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:ENTERTAINER guidelines, role of Horst in Off B'way production of Bent is notable, actor is referenced on Wiki page for show. Actor has been discussed in Excellence in Brand Advertising and AdWeek per WP:ENTERTAINER#cite_note-note4-4. --Mickey Johnson (talk) 17:06, 8 March 2009 (UTC) — Mickey Johnson (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

comment - Citation note 4 refers to this artilce at this time I'm posting this comment. It specifgically identifies Halloran's role a s small, and beeing "dicussed" in this article consistys of a single sentence. WWe need significant coverage. -- Whpq (talk) 20:05, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - "Mickey Johnson" also appears to be a sock puppet since the only contributions are to the page being considered for deletion. --76.178.143.62 (talk) 20:02, 12 March 2009 (UTC) <- this was added by me. --Sc straker (talk) 20:04, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
