Non-notable film producer. 12gHits on "chris pahlow". Worked on a short film that may or may not be notable. No entry in IMDb. Another editor removed CSD and requested AfD instead. -- WebHamste r  03:48, 17 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete: Does not appear notable. I get 55 G-hits but they don't appear to be related to this person. - Rjd0060 (talk) 04:32, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
 * They all look related to me... Ans e ll  05:14, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. His short 'Fraught' won the Best Australian Short Film at the Melbourne International Animation Festival. We need a little more explanation before that evidence can be ignored. - Mgm|(talk) 00:20, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Explanation of what? The film won the award, he didn't. If the film is considered to be notable, then the film should have an article with him being mentioned in it.  WebHamste r  13:14, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep Won a major award in his area of expertise. If you want to be strictly in line with subjective notability you may need two. One thing isn't verifiable but two is right? Ans e ll  05:14, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * The film won the award, he didn't.  WebHamste r  13:14, 18 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep Entry or lack of entry on imdb doesn't mean anything other than "nobody has submitted his details". I understand there are plenty of entrys on imdb for people with no connection whatsoever to making movies, ads or television. But this guy was the producer of two movies which have won awards and my own $0.02 says that is sufficient notability for a stub of an article such as this.Garrie 21:14, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Notability is not inherited. He personally does not meet the requirements of WP:BIO or WP:N. His film may do, in which case it's the film that is notable, not him. As I stated earlier, if the film is notable then it should have an article and of course he should have a mention in it, but in his own right he isn't notable per the WP definition.

 * I'm biting... so how many award-winning movies does he need to produce to become notable? Eventually it rubs off. Garrie 04:49, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * The film won an in-festival award (the article didn't state if he won a "best producer" award) from a WP standpoint that isn't a major award for a film maker. Please see WP:MOVIE, WP:BIO and WP:N.  WebHamste r  11:22, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't have a problem here either way... the point of the my own $0.02 was, I know that my opinion in this instance isn't in line with pre-existing consensus on notability.Garrie 11:18, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
