unreffed (IMBD does not count), unencyclopedic, prob. not notable Edgar Vekilnik, Jr. (talk) 03:09, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

:: I think you're probably right. Or perhaps just redirect to House of Anubis#Main Cast for now? pablo 00:26, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

:::Agreed. A redirect serves just fine until such time if/when this actor merits an inpendent article. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 02:38, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

  • Keep. Also starred as Gerald Durrell in My Family and Other Animals, a significant British drama series. -- Necrothesp (talk) 19:45, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

:: May well have been, however Simon was in the TV film, not a drama series. pablo 19:47, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

:::My mistake - I'd forgotten it was a one-off drama and not a series (although I'm sure I remember it being shown in more than one episode). However, the point is still valid. Focusing on a single role as above just because the article says it's what he's "best-known" for (which often merely means the creator is a fan of that particular film or series and doesn't know the actor for anything else) is a mistake. -- Necrothesp (talk) 19:53, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

:::: You're right, and I don't put much stock in anyone's opinion of what someone's 'best known' for.{{diff|Eugene Simon (actor)|409612881|409447927|diff}} But Michael's point that Simon has had little coverage (ie there is little to be found that discusses him as an actor) is a valid one; google +"eugene simon", +"My Family and Other Animals" for some reviews for instance; not a lot there. I suggested House of Anubis as a redirect because that's current; looks like it may have some run left in it, and a redirect means that this (albeit tiny) article can be retrieved from the history if and when needed. pablo 20:00, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
