I'm not seeing significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject as required by WP:GNG and fails WP:CREATIVE. GSS (talk|c|em) 17:10, 6 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I've added some content and refs and also done some copy-editing. The article still needs work, but for me she meets WP:GNG because of the number of independent sources (more than I would like are reviews or interviews, admittedly) and WP:ANYBIO because of the Albert Maysles New Documentary Director award. I agree she does not pass WP:CREATIVE. Tacyarg (talk) 18:17, 6 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Tacyarg: Can you please point out those sources that you think are independent of the subject? Thank you – GSS (talk|c|em) 05:12, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, they are all in the article. Most are reviews and interviews, but the Film India Global, the book Naming Jhumpa Lahiri and the Record-Journal are not. Tacyarg (talk) 07:17, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Interviews aren't independent sources as required for establishing notability and most of the sources are primary, unreliable and about her film not about her. GSS (talk|c|em) 07:36, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I've been looking for a better source for the (Women in Film) award and can't find one. Have started a discussion on the talk page. If we can't verify this, that would change my vote. Tacyarg (talk) 10:53, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep She definitely won the New Documentary Director award at Tribeca 2017, so meets WP:ANYBIO. I can't find any information online about the 2009 New York Women in Film and Television award winners, so how about someone emails NYWIFT to check? As for "most of the sources are about her film", she won an award for directing the film, and discussions about that inevitably focus on the making of the film.

Delete - the majority of the reliable, non-interview sources are about her film A Suitable Girl. Not much else about her. She fails WP:GNG. I'd support having an article about the movie and redirecting her name to that until she has a bigger, more notable body of work. TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 19:54, 15 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete-Fails NCREATIVE and/or GNG. There are literally uncountable semi-prestigious film festivals across the globe and winning one of their awards confers no de-facto notability.∯WBG^converse 07:24, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
