Darren Doane

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Directed a couple movies that don't have articles and don't seem to be notable. Has several music video credits, but only sources found online were trivial — all I could find was "Darren Doane directed the music video for X" and nothing else. The only third-party sources in this article are similarly trivial or primary.

 * Keep Article needs definite cleanup... a task addressable through regular editing. As a film and music video director, the gentleman meets notability criteria.  Among the films he has written, directed, or produced are Collision, Jason Mraz's Beautiful Mess, Dead Man Running, Metal by Numbers, Unleaded, Black Friday, The Urethra Chronicles, and others... along with dozens of notable and/or award-winning music videos.  Per WP:CREATIVE: "The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews."  His works, both film and video, are notable and have been the subject of numerous reviews.  This is not WP:INHERITED... for as a writer, director, and producer of notable works, the notability of his works IS his under guideline.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 08:38, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Second relist rationale. The article is a BLP. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:03, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Worth keeping for his work on Collision alone, but has a long career in B-Movies and music video. Nominated for 2010 best video director at the CMT Music Awards for example.yorkshiresky (talk) 15:35, 2 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep - passes WP:BIO, with plenty of claims to notability, as well as coverage in multiple reliable sources: ,,,. Robofish (talk) 01:17, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
