Fails WP:GNG and WP:ENTERTAINER. All RS relate specifically to his 2020 hiring as a supporting cast member on the U.S. television serial "Saturday Night Live" and are BLP 1E. Other references like earnthenecklace.com and capcitycomedy.com are not RS. He was a group nominee for an Emmy; while being nominated for an Emmy might infer notability, being part of a group of 82 people nominated (and not winning) one does not. A WP:BEFORE on newspapers.com, Google News, Google Books, and JSTOR returns many results but entirely in non-RS or in RS offering only fleeting mentions such as episode credits during his handful of SNL appearances. May be WP:TOOSOON. Chetsford (talk) 06:55, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

- I'm not really sure BLP1E applies to someone on a recurring TV show, which is not a single event. It's not clear to me whether Dismukes meets WP:ENTERTAINER but I do think we're likely to see more coverage of him after tonight's show, e.g. . I did reach out to them to see if we could get a photo donated after they pointed it out on tonight's show so I don't plan on casting a vote. Legoktm (talk) 07:26, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Strong Keep I know he writes for a comedy show, but is this nomination a joke??! The very week he laments on his show on NATIONAL TELEVISION that his article doesn't have a photo, that article gets nominated for deletion?! Or is this just another attempt to get the article mentioned again on national television NEXT WEEK?!! Seriously, even a cursory Google search of his name under the News lists articles featuring his name (within the last hour at the time of this writing alone) in Paste Magazine, USA Today, Entertainment Weekly and Deadline; and within the last week on MarketWatch, Consequence, New York Post, IndieWire, Vanity Fair, Daily Mail, The Globe and Mail and OK Magazine. Others recently include Yahoo News, US Weekly. That alone passes WP:BASIC. Curiously, even the nominator notes that he was nominated for a Primetime Emmy. However, he was actually nominated for TWO PrimeTime Emmys: in 2018 and 2019. As well as 2 Writers Guild Award nominations in 2019 and 2020. That easily passes WP:ARTIST and WP:NACTOR. Subject has been a writer and performer for iconic national television series for several years, and continues to be an actor and stand-up comic in his own right. I could go on, but in the history of AfD's this one is easily the biggest no-brainer yet. Comedy itself is harder than this! Who are we trying to cancel next, Liz Cheney?!
