Comment: Several declines have not resulted in what is needed. 331dot (talk) 10:38, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Like previous editors, I don't think this article meets WP:NACTOR minimum standards. There is little significant coverage of Quinn in reliable, independent sources (fleeting mentions in longer articles don't count - often the focus is on the work or writer, not the actors). May simply be WP:TOOSOON, so maintain in draft until/in case he achieves genuine notability in his own right. Paul W (talk) 16:19, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Please format the draft like an article. Sungodtemple (talk • contribs) 17:49, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
