Article has a lot of content but no reference list. When looking for sources I couldn't find any independent secondary sources, so it seems to me the article doesn't pass notability criteria for inclusion at WP:BASIC. Even if he is notable a lot of this articles content seems like it'd be difficult to verify. Meszzy2 ( talk) 18:37, 1 April 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Delete After looking for sources I could not find any that could be used as citations in the article and most mentions of him were related to Pantomime but only mentioned him in passing. Like the nominator I think it would be difficult to verify any/most of the information in the article effectively. ECW03 ( talk) 09:27, 9 April 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Not much to go on re references or reliable sources. Appears to be a glorified CV and self promotion. Interesting page here. Perhaps Martin under a different name. UK Wiki User ( talk) 12:34, 11 April 2019 (UTC) reply
