Non-notable director. The films aren't notable, and the only references are IMDB, a blog reporting on a convention, and personal webpages. Fails WP:BIO Tassedethe (talk) 10:00, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I see a great need. 200.123.148.35 (talk) 13:35, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I see a great need, too. It's for a policy-based rationale showing that this person is documented in independent reliable sources, rather than in first-person web log entries. And, looking around, I see nothing to satisfy that need. There are no sources to be found at all. This person's life and works are not independently and reliably documented. Delete.

Keep. This page has been here for over 4 years without any problems until now, you don't suddenly become non-notable after being notable for 4 years. 68.45.109.14 (talk) 09:51, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep and improve through regular editing. Well, as notability guidelines receive "fine-tuning" over time, what was considered notable enough 4 years ago can indeed change. But one has to consider if his being writer/director/producer of several films might be seen as meeting WP:CREATIVE. Did the films themselves receive critical response? As they appear to have received media attention, per WP:CREATIVE, that notability is his. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 00:04, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. No reliable secondary sources to establish notability per WP:BIO. No notable creative works are attributed to subject. Uncle Dick (talk) 17:39, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
