Fails GNG. He did direct Inspector Gadget, which is a fairly notable film. However, I see no real coverage of Kellogg, in depth or otherwise. There appear to be multiple individuals of this name, including a newspaper writer and an academic. They each appear to have more sources available than this Kellogg.

Yes, he has a lot of music video and ad credits, but these are, as admitted by the article 'partial' credits, meaning he worked on a team. That does not establish notability, and the awards listed are not in his name. ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia talk 15:03, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • KEEP Being signed to a notable label indicates importance/significance. Sednablast —Preceding undated comment added 22:31, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
What label are you referring to? To my knowledge he does not appear to be a musician. ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia talk 12:44, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
He is signed with Anonymous Content, therefore is involved with ongoing projects. By label I mean production media label not a record label - apologies. Sednablast 21:39, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • DELETE Fails to meet basic GNG. Cannot find any RS that covers him in depth. BLPs require a good level of meaningful coverage. Seems like a resume. Cannot find evidence that he is signed to a label as indicated in the article. Anonymous Content external link has no mention of him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lausapwow (talkcontribs) 03:01, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Delete Agree with nom that he fails WP:GNG. I go back and forth on WP:DIRECTOR. KidAd talk 04:27, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • DELETE Fails WP:GNG, WP:DIRECTOR. The article lacks sufficient or reliable sources for a WP:BLP, nor could I find anything myself. IMDb is a questionable source (unless footnotes are cited) with a poor reputation for checking the facts. WP should not be an indiscriminate collection of information. The article is a list of unexplained stats that lack context or verification created by a likely WP:COI, which undermines the public's confidence in WP. We must get the article right and be very firm about the use of high-quality sources with integrity. Ultraquark (talk) 22:06, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
