Allen Cordell[edit]

Appears to be non-notable; He does not appear to meet Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Creative_professionals. While I appreciate that the article says he won an award for best documentary, there is no reference and the award may well have been simply an internal college award (especially as he does not even mention any award on his own bio/cv page from his own website). Under general notability he is neither an award winner nor ground-breaking in his field (indeed a search at the Purchase College website does not find him, though it does find other directors that have won awards) Chaosdruid (talk) 21:35, 20 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I can find no significant coverage about him. I found this article which mentions an Allen Cordell that might be him, but it isn't significant coverage in any case. -- Whpq (talk) 14:27, 23 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

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