David Jason
This page seems to be a crap. If it is intended to cite David Jason, a British actor, he is definitely notable. Wikipedia says "Sir David John White, OBE known by his stage name David Jason (born 2 February 1940) is a highly regarded English actor, admired equally for his dramatic work as for his comedy roles", but if so, still I think this current article better to delete, since 1) anyway they are craps and 2) they don't seem to be enabled to attribute him, rather than the roles he played say = attributed to playwriters. Unless sourced remarkable quotes are added, I think this article is better to be gone. --Aphaia 17:15, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete. --Aphaia 17:15, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep Yes, one of Britain's best-loved actors and highly notable. These are some of his best-known catchphrases from various parts he has played.  Probably he didn't write them himself, but catchphrases ought to be assigned to the actor.--Cato 21:40, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Catch phrases associated with famous roles he played seems okay if we can verifiable reliable sources for them. FloNight&#9829;&#9829;&#9829; 20:21, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment This sort of thing is jolly difficult to source. I have found what I hope is a good source for one.--Cato 21:21, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete OK, the "Del Boy" role has popular catch phrases associated with it but I don't think that the other roles do. At least one source seems to be a blog.--Poetlister 17:06, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Just because someone may say something a lot doesn't mean it's worth anything. —LrdChaos (talk) 18:04, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment OK, delete the unsourced bits. However, I understand that current policy is to attribute catch phrases to the actor, and we have good sources for Del Boy and Pop Larkin.--Cato 21:12, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
