The result was no consensus. Clearly not being deleted but feel arguments to keep on the award are probably going to need a guideline level discussion before they become authoritative given that we do seem to delete quite a lot of the winners. Spartaz Humbug! 07:46, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Unremarkable former child actor who's only claim seems to be winning a child actor award aged 12. No evidence of further film participation or notability from existing credit. Fails WP:NACTOR. Bungle ( talk • contribs) 06:18, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

- I wouldn't say "unremarkable", although he might not pass Wikipedia's guidelines for notability. He did win a national film award in the eighth most populous country in the world.

- I'm not seeing anything that would suggest this person is remarkable or otherwise noteworthy, as you latterly note. I guess the outcome of this would determine if we should look at other actor articles on that list also. Bungle ( talk • contribs) 20:22, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
- Comment. I think the question should be asked as follows: does Bangladesh National Film Award for Best Child Artist meet WP:ANYBIO's criteria? I'm not sure. Deckkohl ( talk) 14:51, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
- Comment We have articles about every recipient of an Academy Juvenile Award. Even those, like Ivan Jandl and Vincent Winter, who have little or no sourcing beyond an obituary saying they won it. This suggests that the community believes that award meets WP:ANYBIO. Is the Bangladeshi award different? Notability is not temporary, so if they're notable for a performance as a child actor, they needn't continue to act or continue to receive coverage. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 22:17, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
- Keep: This person has received well-known and significant award in the field of film in Bangladesh. Please see WP:ANYBIO.≈ Farhan «Talk» 05:04, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting because I think some of these comments here are advocating Keeping this article without stating that opinion in BOLD font. The discussion seems to rest on the question, is winning Bangladesh National Film Award for Best Child Artist enough to establish GNG? Looking over the list on that page of previous winners, my guesstimate is about half of them have Wikipedia articles, likely based on future accomplishments.

- KEEP: My thinking is that if an award is notable, then those receiving the award are notable. Particularly in the arts where future contributions from the subject seem likely. CaseArmitage ( talk) 14:15, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

- Keep I would suggest that every category from the most important film award in any country with a "llywood-type" film industry would go toward the criteria. I can't really see how picking and choosing which countries or which awards from the most prominent awards in a country would be NPOV on Wikipedia's part. (Are choreographers more or less notable than sound designers, is Nollywood more or less notable than Dhallywood, for example...). The only possible criteria I can imagine would be how many years the award has been given, but this one would surpass any reasonable cutoff at 40+years. — siro χ o 07:27, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
