Delete per WP:GNG. I also nominated his movie Wine Tasting for deletion. There isn't enough here to establish notability. Sources provided are IMDb, Facebook, and a list of articles written by the subject on a website called OpEdNews - no reliable secondary sources covering the subject.

  • Comment - I've definitely added reliable sources from Hollywood screenwriter John August, and from other Hollywood bloggers. My actions as an activist in 2011 as an Occupy related activist were very notable, as I fought to bring attention to the marginalization of filmmakers/screenwriters of color and that news blew up. Go Into the Story, owned by Franklin Leonard's Black List, also mentioned me, as did many others. I've just added this to an edit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nyfilmmaker32 (talkcontribs) 18:40, 25 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Notable as last contributor used is ill defined. What is "not yet notable" and what is "notable"? There are third party mentions of the writers work by major media outlets, and by major Hollywood writers/bloggers. If allegedly writer is not notable, then notable should be clearly defined. Writer has passed the wiki's stated definitions of major media mention. It's also completely not fair to try to include independent writers as not notable. I sincerely hope people are not trying to say one must writer studio summer blockbusters to be notable, because that implies you're in the pockets of certain corporations.Nyfilmmaker32 (talk) 20:25, 1 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as not notable. My own Google search didn't find anything else, and the references on the page simply aren't acceptable for establishing notability. --Kbabej (talk) 21:36, 3 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
