The result was delete. The "keep" opinions do not identify the sources that they believe make the topic notable. Sandstein 16:53, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable youtuber and filmmaker, PROD was removed due to the fact that one of his films has won and award, but the award does not seem notable either. He may have a lot of subscribers, but that does not equal notability by Wikipedia standards. ★Trekker (talk) 17:29, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep coverage and work of filmmaker are sufficient to meet notability guidelines.FloridaArmy (talk) 20:12, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What coverage? I don't see a single reliable source cited in the article as of now.★Trekker (talk) 22:47, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I am guessing FloridaArmy saw 11 references and thought, "wow, this guy is clearly notable!" It is, however, not always that simple. Passing mentions and YouTube videos are not how we determine notability; if anything, it shows how far from notable this person is.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 16:38, 7 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete the sourcing does not measure up to what is expected by the general notability guidelines.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:28, 9 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep — It's close, but sufficiently notable, and the number and quality of results in a search is going up with the nearing release of his film. Someone should improve the sourcing, though. —Kaz (talk) 14:39, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

None of his previous films have anything resembling notable coverage either, why should we assume that the new film would change that? We don't build articles with crystal ball expectations. This person is utterly non-notable, nevermind the fact that notability is not inhereted so his movies getting a little bit of covergage doens't matter.★Trekker (talk) 14:54, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
