WP:BLP, not referenced to any strong reliable source coverage about him, of a filmmaker with no strong claim to passing WP:CREATIVE. The notability claim here is that he was one of 11 winners of an amateur filmmaking award from his local film festival for a three-minute short film, and the source for that is a mere blurb which mentions his name while failing to actually be about him, and the only other "reference" here is his own self-published YouTube profile. None of this, neither the sourcing nor the substance, is valid grounds for a Wikipedia article. Bearcat (talk) 06:02, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I can't find significant coverage, and agree that isn't a claim to Wiki-notability here. Mortee (talk) 20:46, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Objection. Valid source from The Seattle Times newspaper cited to improve the article as well as to add a meaningful contribution to the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zmarshmallowz (talkcontribs) 04:50, 10 February 2018 (UTC) Zmarshmallowz (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

A person does not automatically qualify for a Wikipedia article just because one source for it exists in their local newspaper. A person qualifies for a Wikipedia article by having a broad range of coverage in a variety of newspapers, not just the moment they have one piece of coverage in an exclusively local context.
