Unable to find any reliable sources independent of the subject to verify the contents of the article in order to establish notability of this contested prod. The article claims that the subject has been nominated for two daytime Emmys and a Directors Guild award, but I can find nothing to reliably verify it. The article does not appear to meet WP:GNG or WP:CREATIVE. J04n(talk page) 17:29, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

 * According to IMDB (which I know isn't a WP:RS) Andrew Lee did indeed direct one episode of All my Children. The Daytime Emmy seems odd, we don't even have that category listed. Rich Farmbrough, 15:15, 9 September 2010 (UTC).
 * http://www.soap-auditions.com/ lists Lee as a director of a soap.  I'm inclined to think he is  a director of soap episodes, and hence probably marginally notable, but that needs to be verifiable. Can WP:WikiProject Soaps help?  Rich Farmbrough, 15:41, 9 September 2010 (UTC).
 * Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama Series Directing Team - it's a team award. I saw an article saying someone was a Nobel Prize laureate - they were one of the hundreds if not thousands on the IGPCC or whatever it is called. Rich Farmbrough, 15:55, 9 September 2010 (UTC).
 * Delete Not everyone who directs TV episodes is notable, and this guy's career seems pretty run-of-the mill. The Daytime Emmy citation was, as noted above, for a directing team (I always find it annoying when someone claims an Emmy or similar award when they were actually part of a large team that got the award); furthermore, they merely got nominations, not an actual award. Here is one of the Daytime Emmy nominations and you can see that he was just one of four directors credited (along with six associate directors and five stage managers). --MelanieN (talk) 16:54, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
