 * Weak keep some evidence of notability for this individual; minor awards, minor book and film, probably all adds up to a WP entry. JJL (talk) 00:21, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Sounds like a Keep, pending additional verification. It needs independent sources to verify all those claims. --Yeti Hunter (talk) 01:34, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. Looks notable to me. Plenty of links at the bottom of the article to sources that document the stuff described above; would have been nice if they were linked with footnotes, but that's not an absolute requirement. JulesH (talk) 11:09, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - To sumarize the above "keeps": Looks notable. But it's not. The guy directed a few television commercials and has a rack of non-notable industry awards, none of which are notable industry awards, but rather "this year, it's you turn" awards. Many of the links are to one-liners in industry "magazines" listings. I'm sure he's a talented guy, but notablility has not been established. Proxy User (talk) 18:29, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Microscopically weak keep. There is some evidence of notability but the article has COI issues and needs cleanup and inline citations. The creator's username User:Caravan Pictures is a company name. I'm currently discussing a name change. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 18:50, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep Some notability, imo just enough  §hawn poo   03:56, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
