Non-notable minor actor, apparently most notable for "dubb[ing] the crowing sounds for Robin Williams" in a scene in Hook. I [http://www.google.com/#hl=en&source=hp&q=%22american+michael%22+allport&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&fp=bcdf8cbbf06dc4f can't find any evidence] of his alleged upcoming pilot American Michael, and the most significant coverage of him is a couple of lines in [http://articles.latimes.com/1997/aug/12/local/me-21740 this LA Times article] from thirteen years ago. Fails WP:ENT. An apparent autobiography.  Glenfarclas  (talk) 20:26, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

• Delete Keep - Non-notable entertainer. The references provided seem to be either from public wikis or unreliables sources except for the LATimes article that Glenfarclas pointed out. I agree that it appears to be an autobiography.OlYeller^Talktome 15:06, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

::Comment Some of [http://news.google.com/archivesearch?&as_src=-newswire+-wire+-presswire+-PR+-press+-release+-wikipedia&q=%22Chris+Allport%22 THESE] appear to be our Chris M Allport... who does not always use his middle initial. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 03:44, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

:::As MQS has pointed out, the subject has won some awards that, in my opinion, establish notability. References have been added for the awards and while their may be a COI, I believe that the article should be kept and cleaned of any COI info. OlYeller^Talktome 06:42, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

• Keep and futher improve, and warn author that COI requires he best not edit the article. Now that the article belongs to Wikipedia, and after doing some digging, and with respects to those opining delete, the man appears to meet notability through WP:ANYBIO in that from 1991 to 1996 he has three times won and three times been nominated for a Young Artist Award. That he has not won an award lately does not matter as notability is not temporary. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 04:00, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
• Keep Notable voice actor, in notable roles, and he's won awards for his work as well. And he's done work other than voice acting as well, of course. Dream Focus 00:08, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
