Ikenna Aniekwe

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The subject of this article fails WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR. He lacks in-depth coverage in reliable secondary sources. I did a Google search on all of the films mentioned in the article but didn't find any reliable coverage. 10 of the article's 15 sources are from the website nollywoodforever.com, an unreliable source. I did find a brief discussion about the 2010 film he directed titled The Liquid Black Gold. However, this isn't enough to warrant a separate article.

 * Delete — Doesn’t satisfy any criterion from WP:NACTOR. Celestina007 (talk) 18:44, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - Lack of reliable primary sources to show that the subject passes the criteria fromWP:NACTOR. The reference "nollywoodforever.com" is not a reliable source on Wikipedia. December200 (talk) 13:27, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
 * "nollywoodforever.com" is not the only source I listed. I have already removed most of them now, or should I remove everything from that particular website? MarkCarey911 (talk) 17:00, 17 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep - This page should not be deleted because... Ikenna is a popular figure in the Nigerian film Industry. He is recognized nationwide as a top filmmaker who trained a lot of the filmmakers written about on wikipedia today. Like most of the Nigerian films released before 2009, they don't usually have a lot of listings in the media space beyond just those little mentions. Should I remove the items without proper sources? Please, I do not think this page that I spent hours on should be deleted. MarkCarey911 (talk) 08:37, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Please read WP:AFDFORMAT before you comment in another AFD discussion. To answer your question, yes. Everything you add to Wikipedia must be backed by a reliable source.

 * okay, I hope to do better in my next article. But let me know what I can do to keep this one. Thanks MarkCarey911 (talk) 17:00, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for improving the article's sourcing. I don't think there's much you can do at this time. Aniekwe just needs to produce and direct quality films that become big in Nigeria. It would be nice to see his films among the List of highest-grossing Nigerian films. Winning an AMVCA or AMAA accolade should also help him meet WP:NACTOR.
