Does not appear to meet WP:NACTOR or WP:ANYBIO. Unable to find any coverage independent of the subject in any reliable sources. I'm not sure role in the The Fugitive and U.S. Marshals are considered significant. J04n(talk page) 19:17, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - Even tough no citations provided, I think that he may meet WP:NACTOR due to his roles in The Fugitive and its spinoff, the 1998 film U.S. Marshals. Naomijeans (talk) 02:42, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - He may weak pass WP:NACTOR but no references given to verify. Can editor of article provide few notable references. DSN18 (talk) 17:30, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - It is unfortunate that the Chicago Tribune article is not available electronically. --Bejnar (talk) 14:37, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

• Keep. Thanks to Bejnar, the rogerebert.com citation is enough to verify. It's been a long time since I watched these but I think the role was prominent enough to meet WP:NACTOR. There seem also to be more citations under "Tom Wood", for example [1][2] —siroχo 00:43, 13 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep passes WP:NACTOR; he’s had significant roles in The Fugitive & U.S. Marshals and Ulee’s Gold. The Film Creator (talk) 15:02, 13 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. First, as passing at least WP:NACTOR (going by the Tribune article The Fugitive is probably less of a central role than U.S. Marshals & Ulee's Gold, but all appear to meet NACTOR's requirement of significant roles). Second, because unless the Tribune article is a complete one-off he appears very likely to pass WP:NBIO as well; his hopelessly un-Googleable name isn't helping. Finally, because it would be extraordinary (and a sign that our own criteria were seriously out of whack) if six other Wikipedias had organically acquired articles on this fellow and he still didn't measure up. -- Visviva (talk) 01:16, 14 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
