Not notable. Fails WP:BIO. All sources are direct from user. Fivestarfluff (talk) 15:57, 20 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep - If you had actually bothered to check the sources before nominating, you'd see that there's third party references instead of entirely first party references. My theory is this man has pissed you off somehow and you're here to kill his article. --GSK ● ✉ ✓ 16:04, 20 April 2013 (UTC) Withdrawn GSK ● ✉ ✓ 16:38, 20 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry new around here not sure I did this correctly but which sources were not first party? I only saw dead links that didnt seem notable in the first place, 1st party and a small local newspaper. Certainly nothing in WP:FILMMAKER or WP:BIO in my opinion from either though. Fivestarfluff (talk) 16:35, 20 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep There's an entire article about him on Reuters Canada, so he meets notability. The entry needs to be updated and cleaned up, though, and the dead links need to be replaced with live ones.HillbillyGoat (talk) 22:12, 20 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep Is an important in his region, has a large number of productions.Spoonkymonkey (talk) 16:10, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This might be the case but i dont see it listed in the sources anywhere. As mentioned only a local paper, 1 source from reuters and some dead links. There is no update of productions since 2008 either. Again nothing that shows anything supporting WP:FILMMAKER Fivestarfluff (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 05:50, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Weak Keep Searching Google News Archive found the following sources covering him and his work. I haven't been able to find anymore, so I'm not inclined to firmly support keeping this article, but there might be more reliable sources out there.
