Sourced only to IMDb for more than a decade, I posit that the subject fails WP:NFILMMAKER as being a producer on Live Nude Girls and Amityville Dollhouse with thin sourcing like this seems a stretch for what that criterion requires. This article as well as mere mentions here, here, and here don't make out WP:GNG or WP:ANYBIO. Most everything you can find about the subject comes from stuff like Imdb, LinkedIn, and other Wikipedia mirrors that fail WP:SPS. "Steve White" isn't exactly an uncommon name, so there were lots of false positives, too. Chris Troutman (talk) 05:11, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete It is way past time IMDb was made a banned link so people could not add it to Wikipedia pages. Wikipedia is not meant to be a mirror of IMDb, but too many pages have thrived for years with just a link to IMDB, and nominations for prod deletion of such articles are routinely turned down because the person appeared in lots of films, even if none of their roles were significant. Also we have gone too far in accepting basically every film made in Hollywood prior to 1960 as notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:14, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
