Jeff Hall (animator)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Unreferenced. No evidence of notability. --EEMIV (talk) 16:38, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete as an article with little or no context. Tohd8BohaithuGh1 (talk) 19:15, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Wait a minute - Consider the fact that there are lots of wikilinks TO this article, scanty though it may be. Please take a look at "What links here" and note that this is only a partial list, because this article was recently moved and all the links have yet to be corrected to catch up with it (Many more can be seen at "What links here" on Jeff Hall (disambiguation)).  Yes, it needs to be fleshed out, but it is a valid stub, and it does have an external link as a reference, which is a good starting point for future editors, and also does help defend notability.

 * Keep I would have preferred for the author to include sources first and upload the article to mainspace after it was a bit meatier, but the links alone make the guy notable. Withdraw nomination and allow time (2 weeks?) for expansion and referencing before renominating. - Mgm|(talk) 00:25, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * The article has existed, virtually untouched, for almost two years. That whole time is has lacked sources, and the burden of proof is on those adding/restoring material. The number of links pointing toward an article isn't any sort of sign of notability -- and, frankly, the number of links isn't all that impressive. I'd suggest that the timeframe to add sources and try to rescue this article is until the close of the AfD in a few days. --EEMIV (talk) 14:43, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete as a unreferenced BLP of a non public figure who isn't likely to be notable. Incoming links don't connote anything about notability. Protonk (talk) 07:55, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep IMDB suggests a pretty longish career with lots of highly notable material worked upon. I am not an animation expert however. It would be a fairly specialised book (on history of animation) which may cover such material though. Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 20:05, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
