There's a claim of notability, but imo it doesn't wash. TheLongTone (talk) 17:56, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The claim of notability amounts to having directed a number of independent, non-notable films. No independent sources to denote notability. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 18:00, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks for your opinion. If you check the reference links you'll see verifiable sources confirming these films which are also very real and avalible Ondemand via your TV if you got one. Also the casting credits for these movies are of notable people such as the mayor of port Adelaide and many others. Also two films are of popular places and officially filmed. If it wasn't officaly filmed then how else would the movies exist.

It seems excuse after excuse for not having this person listed over later by a dead mayor whome got very little references and incorrectly named as I'm sick of looking up this director and finding bad articles names about the wrong people.

Please reconsider. A thankyou message will be made if so. Any help improving the article be handy . — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.183.186.239 (talk) 18:29, 28 January 2016 (UTC) 49.183.186.239 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

  • Comment Jeffries directed a The Royal Adelaide Show, apparently a commercial video documenting one year's Royal Adelaide Show. This hardly makes him a notable director. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 19:08, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WikiDan61 - no evidence of him coming close to meeting WP:CREATIVE yet. In a few years maybe. Best of luck to him. NeemNarduni2 (talk) 22:11, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Per WP:GNG. I couldn't find any secondary reliable sources that are independent of the subject to establish notability what-so-ever. The sources listed on the article (with the exception of imdb) are from websites that are owned by the article subject, or social media / web profiles. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 02:03, 29 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep the above message is incorrect not all sites are owned by persons/company. Get your facts right!49.183.175.43 (talk) 03:00, 29 January 2016 (UTC) Those so called deleaters should be ashamed. None of you have done anything even as close to what this director has and your just a big joke thinking your so big when your nothing but children.

  • Objection to Deletion: notable independent references:

[http://www.flixster.com/celebrity/edward-jeffries Flixster Celebrity Celebrity mention - first movie 22,000 seen & rated with 86% liked his film if more than 22,000 people seen and rated this film then liked it that's got to be noteworthy. movie he directed notably mentioned on IGN Entertainment NOTE: These referances sites do not belong to him or his company. Give this page a chance to grow ais more movies are in the works. It should also be noted his company allow people to work with him and do much more than just make movies, film or music but also provide Internet, phone credits and other items. imo this will continue to grow. You've asked for independent sources and they have been provided. Please keep article. Red~Adman (talk) 16:01, 29 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment The various SPAs that have arrived to fight for this article are misled; your arguments amount largely to "I like it, so we should keep it." The fact that you might have seen Jeffries' work is irrelevant. What we need are instances of significant coverage of Jeffries in independent media. Listings of his works in film directories is not considered significant coverage. Reviews of his movies at Rotten Tomatoes also does not provide the necessary source material. Find us some independently published coverage of Jeffries or his work, and we might be able to get somewhere. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 20:12, 29 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete fails WP:BIO. the swarming of single purpose editors is a tell tale sign of conflict of interest. LibStar (talk) 07:04, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Should we regard that as a legitimate draft or delete it under WP:NOTRESUME? --DanielRigal (talk) 21:42, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I mentioned it here, as I suspect that user page to be likely created by the same user(s) as this article - given the comparable activity from 2013[3][4].
As far as what to do with it - I think an argument could be given for WP:NOTRESUME; or at the very least, I think a WP:MFD discussion would be appropriate, given the disruption related to the material and the long-term socking involved with no apparent improvement in the draft over the years. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 03:56, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete:, as per above. Not sufficiently notable. Aeonx (talk) 21:21, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Not even close to being notable. The only "movie" the article links to is actually a kids TV show where he was an assistant. The rest is even thinner than that. Google has almost nothing, even when you tweak the search links to compensate for the misnaming of the article. --DanielRigal (talk) 21:31, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
