 * Keep Per WP:CREATIVE and WP:NEXIST the photographer is known by his work. This one has taken photos for Autoweek 1 and Motorsport 2, his photographs are used in many publications including the Mirror and Foxnews 3. Wm335td (talk) 20:30, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Questions. Let's try wikilinking what's already in the article: "Moy has worked with some of the world's largest image agencies, such as Sutton Images and Crash Media Group." Both are red. Oversights by Wikipedia (which of course has many oversights), or exaggeration? Also, does "worked with" mean something other than "provided photographs for", and if not, then how many photographers have provided photographs for these agencies? -- Hoary (talk) 00:01, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete - simply having his name mentioned under photos does not constitute coverage required for notability. I wasn't able to find anything about James Moy in a google search, only articles featuring his photos. Having a look at WP:CREATIVE, it looks to me like he doesn't meet any of the 4 notability conditions. A7V2 (talk) 04:38, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete having your photos appear in various publications no more is a way to show notability than having articles written appear in various publications. We need sources about someone, not just to show they have created artistic work in some way, broadly defined.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:36, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per lack of WP:SIGCOV about him. I did a couple of searches and found a single interview. Bearian (talk) 16:54, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
