Question could you point me towards the details about which porn awards are considered notable (or, more specifically, somewhere it was broadly agreed that the GayVN awards were not notable in this sense)?
WP:PORNBIO doesn't include or link to such as list. The GayVN awards is included in
pornographic film awards, as linked to by
WikiProject Pornography but that only means that they're significant enough to have an article about them, not that they're significant enough to confer notability themselves. (I'm not voting yet because working through sources for a pornstar from before the internet age is always difficult. Clarity on the award's status might help matters.)

Delete Thanks, that helps. In this case, having looked further, it makes no difference anyway. The archived version of the referenced page for the award doesn't mention him, his other psdeudonym, or the film he won for.
IMDb doesn't support the claim either. There seems to be an ongoing effort to remove pornography-related articles, which bothers me on principle, but in this case I don't see a supportable claim to notability.

Delete. Lacks significant coverage by reliable sources. Previously kept due to a scene-related award win, which has since been excluded from the
WP:PORNBIO guideline. Independent searches for reliable source coverage yield only trivial mentions and cast listings.
