Does not meet WP:GNG, coverage in independent sources is practically non-existent. The coverage assembled here suggests that the subject's film, The Blessing, is likely notable, but overall the subject does not appear to meet WP:NCREATIVE. While looking for sources online, I found coverage of off-Broadway theater reviews in NYT for productions directed by a Jordan Fein, but given the total omission of these accomplishments in this article (despite it having been written by an editor with a declared conflict of interest), I'm given the impression that this is likely a different Jordan Fein. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 23:07, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Did not find any indepedent coverage for him, fails WP:NCREATIVE CommanderWaterford (talk) 12:12, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Rosguill, I think those Jordan Feins are the same based on a source I found that refers to him as an opera, theater and film director. ...by Brooklyn-based opera, theater, and film director Jordan Fein. Fein’s work in film has been recognized with three Cannes Lions awards, while his work in opera and theater has been produced... ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:35, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete- A Google search returns that he is an "Emmy award-winning filmmaker" but there's no record of a win (or a nomination) on the Emmy site. Also: never a good sign when the second sentence of a two-sentence intro is where the subject of the article attended university. Unless they are 9 and went to MIT. (Doesn't meet GNG or creative.)

Keep I think he meets WP:NCREATIVE#3 for directing a number of works that have been the subject of multiple independent reviews. The Singlet: Theater Mania, New York Times, Vulture. Rags Parkland: New York Times and all the other sources in our article. War Lesbian: Seems the NYT really likes this guy, Pride.com, Stagebuddy. Here's a review of an opera he directed. This is leaving out The Blessing which may well be notable on it's own. As he is the creator of all of those, in as much as a director is the creator of a performance, I think he's past the NCREATIVE #3 bar, and possibly #4C if you count multiple reviews in the New York Times and other publications as won significant critical attention ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:57, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, so it looks like there are two directors named Jordan Fein that both went to NYU and both look pretty similar. I had to swap back and forth on their respective websites to eventually come to that conclusion, and even now I'm not sure that it's not one guy who keeps his two fields of art separated. Color me confused. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 15:09, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No coverage in reliable sources, he directed one documentary which also has no notable coverage Guitarjunkie22 (talk) 11:20, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
