Fails WP:ANYBIO and WP:FILMMAKER. All of the refs are amazon links to nowhere as well. This article was created by a user who has not been active in 13 years and who has a history of deleted pages as well. AmericanAir88^(talk) 13:57, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Draft move to draftspace as the article is in a dire state and is not suitable for mainspace in this condition, but he does pass WP:Creative with screenplays for multiple very notable films. Also worldcat shows over 6,000 library holdings which indicates that there should be many reviews of such popular books, regards Atlantic306 (talk) 22:43, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Assuming facts in the article are true, meets WP:CREATIVE #3. I see no real reason to draftify, the article is honestly not as bad as all that. I'll try to do some work on it in the few hours before this AFD closes anyway. Hugsyrup (talk) 12:39, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep moving to keep from draftify as the article has been improved and is acceptable for mainspace, regards Atlantic306 (talk) 17:53, 15 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
