Contested WP:BLPPROD. The sole source added thus far does not qualify as reliable. My own web search did not turn up anything any better. Apparently not a notable individual. Beeblebrox (talk) 23:08, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as unsourcable, and perhaps hoax. I can find nothing in reliable sources to even verify that this individual was in the projects asserted in the article... and this after checking even cast databases for each. Nada. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 22:33, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

At first I thought it was just puffery but I'm also starting to think this is a hoax since nobody can find anything about this guy that even comes close to a WP:RS. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:52, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

My findings as well. Many of the asserted projects have readily available cast listings, and he is simply not among them. Perhaps the 11-year-old was trying to impress friends? Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 23:13, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as hoax per statement in article. GregJackP (talk) 14:59, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That is pretty telling (it wasn't there at the time of nomination) I've added speedy deletion tag as it now seems abundantly clear this is a hoax. Beeblebrox (talk) 16:58, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
