Filmmaker with questionable notability. I can't find anything he has done on here and I have not found that much about him outside of Wikipedia mirror sites. Wgolf (talk) 21:32, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: fails WP:GNG and WP:CREATIVE. I've altered the article to note that he died in 2017, so this is no longer a BLP. The fact is that Mr. Peña only worked on three full-length films, Raíces de Piedra (1961), Sangre en los Jazmines (1974) and Mientras Arde el Fuego (1979) – everything else were short films or documentaries. That's not to dismiss him, but it means there is little in the way of in-depth sources about a person with such little output. The most detailed biography is on the website of Colombia's national film institute [1] but this probably doesn't constitute a reliable independent source. Most other sources are just passing mentions, and mostly regarding Raíces de Piedra [2], [3], [4] – it seems to me that it would be more worthwhile creating an article for the film than to keep this biography, which it appears will never be more than a very brief stub. The film, on the other hand, has more potential reliable sources, and is also notable for being banned by the military government of the time. Richard3120 (talk) 14:47, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
