• Weak delete. Let's do a source review:
• [http://seattletimes.com/html/localnews/2002547539_unity08e.html Quite a long article in the Seattle Times] that is assuredly about him, not his roles. This is one example of significant coverage in a reliable source independent of the subject. Let's see what else there is.
• There's [http://snovalleystar.com/2008/11/26/story-of-christmas-redemption-to-make-annual-run-in-north-bend some discussion of Schwartz here], although it's in the context of a play and the source seems local in character.
• [http://seattletimes.com/html/eastsidenews/2003128439_snoqualmieartsmetro14m.html Some more coverage in the Seattle Times], but this amounts to several paragraphs, not a whole article.
• There are quite a few more articles, including reviews of performances in stage plays and so forth.

:There is enough amount of coverage to concoct a short article with, but I'm not persuaded that we're quite at WP:GNG with this. There has been coverage in reliable secondary sources, but what I have found has tended to be either trivial in character or in the context of local events. He has not had major roles or made a significant impact on the industry; that much seems clear. In the sense that his contributions to larger productions have been trivial and the more extensive coverage comes in a local context, I don't think we're yet at coverage I'd call significant. This, I think, is the essence of the guidance provided by WP:NACTOR, a set of criteria he clearly falls short of. It's not a clear-cut case by any means, but I'm persuaded by the hyperlocal flavor of his most substantial coverage and the triviality of his other roles that delete is the correct course. --Batard0 (talk) 07:36, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
