WP:BLP of a filmmaker, not referenced to enough reliable source coverage about him to clear WP:GNG. Of the nine distinct sources here, two are primary sources (a YouTube video and the Amazon sales profile of his book), two (American Forests and Daily Beast) are pieces of content where he's the bylined author, one ("TheInsite.org") is an article on the website of an organization which is not a media outlet, two are Q&A interviews where he's quoted talking about himself and his own work, one is a 50-word blurb and one is a glancing namecheck of his existence in a film's cast and crew list. All of which means that none of the sources here are helping him get over GNG: some of these sources would be fine for some supplementary verification of facts after GNG had already been covered off by third-party sources, but cannot be bringers of GNG as they represent the subject talking about himself, and none of the others count for anything at all. This was also tagged for notability from 2011 until three days ago, when that was removed by an anonymous IP -- so I also suspect, but cannot definitively prove, conflict of interest editing.

 * Delete being the youngest contributor to some organization is not a sign of notability, and none of his others actions amount to notability. Just being a journalists, especially at the publication he is with, is also not a sign of notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:39, 27 September 2017 (UTC)
