Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a filmmaker and musician, not properly sourced as passing our notability criteria for filmmakers or musicians. This was created at the subject's full name, rather than his normal common name, in an apparent attempt to sidestep the results of the prior Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gino McKoy -- but it still doesn't make any particularly strong notability claim (e.g. noteworthy music or film awards) over and above the fact that he and his work exist, and it's still based on a mixture of primary sources, self-promotion and glancing namechecks of his existence in sources that are not about him, which is not the kind of sourcing that it takes to pass WP:GNG in lieu of any especially noteworthy distinctions.
Just like the first time, there's still nothing here that would be "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be referenced considerably better than this. Bearcat (talk) 17:37, 3 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
