Non-notability. The article is well-referenced (which is why I didn't simply slap a speedy on it) but all the references are either simple listing about films produced of focus on John McPhail. TheLongTone (talk) 14:09, 12 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I would argue that the fact he was nominated by both BAFTA and the Royal Television Society (Both major art instituitions in the UK) alongside his work with McPhail far exceeds the requirements for notability. ChrisGFA (talk) 15:25, 12 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I am satisfied that the person is of suitable notability in the arts industry. DrColePorter (talk) 15:36, 12 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I may be impartial here as a co writer but to dismiss a BAFTA and RTS nominee on the grounds of non notability would go against the rules of Wikipedia. TheDeadRat (talk) 16:03, 12 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not a Bafta award winner, merely a contributor to a nominated film. The only award for work he is concerned with is one from the Sydney Indid film festival. Annd as mentioned above, none of the references make any substantial mention of Lanni. TheLongTone (talk) 16:02, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep: This is an obvious keep--just improve the references by using the correct citation format w/detailed info. Garagepunk66 (talk) 00:37, 23 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep even if reluctanty as I would honestly say drafting and userfying is better and there's not much of an article aside from a few listed awards but I suppose keep for now and renominate later if a better article has not happened. SwisterTwister talk 05:48, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
