- Keep. No basis is stated for the nomination. In any event, Hunter Carson was a highly notable child actor for a couple of years: his performance in Paris, Texas was widely acclaimed, as described in "A 9-Year-Old Handful Named Hunter Carson Scores a Stunning Acting Debut in Paris, Texas", People, March 25, 1985. He followed that up with another well-publicized starring role in Invaders from Mars (see, for example, the syndicated LA Daily News article "Mother, Son Work Happily Together In Invaders From Mars"). His career since then has not been at the same level, but he passes both WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR#1. --Arxiloxos (talk) 06:14, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Wikipedia:Speedy keep as nominator "fails to advance an argument for deletion", or keep on its merits. As well as major roles in the 2 films mentioned (suggesting WP:NACTOR), he got press coverage including that cited and one in Houston Chronicle (Dansby, Andrew (December 10, 2004). "Life on a well-traveled road; Love it or hate it, 'Paris, Texas' still is talked about". Houston Chronicle. p. STAR 1.) which discusses his filmmaking and his relationship to his father (WP:GNG). He also has his feature film directorial debut out this summer, which isn't yet in itself grounds for notability, but may be if it's a success. --Colapeninsula (talk) 15:30, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Keep as the nom has given zero rationale as to why they think this article should be deleted. Regular keep due to the sources found by Colapeninsula and Arxiloxos about demonstrating satisfying WP:BIO. --Oakshade (talk) 06:36, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
