 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Article subject fails WP:GNG and WP:NDIRECTOR. Neither of the sources in the article meet the threshold for notability. The article itself has been tagged with BLP sources since October 2012.

I've attempted to search for reliable sources on the director and his works, and while I can confirm the works exist, I've not been able to find any reviews of them nor of his work more generally. The closest I was able to find was a potential interview in a now defunct publication (Boolean Flix) that is now offline and not archived anywhere.

Finally, someone the article subject attempted to nominate this for deletion back in June. While I can't verify if this editor is the article subject, if they are then it seems as though WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE would apply in this circumstance. Sideswipe9th (talk) 20:16, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete: No sourcing found for this person, even confirmation that his films exist is sparse. Does not appear to have earned critical attention. Oaktree b (talk) 20:48, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. I am unable to find sourcing on Google and The Wikipedia Library that demonstrate a GNG/NBASIC pass. The films he has directed do not appear to have sourcing that would substantiate a WP:NDIRECTOR pass.  VickKiang  (talk)  00:55, 21 November 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete. Well, the movies he directed can be seen on a simple search but he him self lacks credible sources. Micheal Kaluba (talk) 15:28, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
