Fails WP:FILMMAKER. The majority of sources either aren't independent or provide only a passing mention. I found two sources that may contribute to notability. I am not 100% sure about the reliability of the latter source. GMH Melbourne (talk) 03:22, 29 May 2024 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read!

 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Actors and filmmakers and United States of America. GMH Melbourne (talk) 03:23, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep I think his work on Dear White People alone meets WP:FILMMAKER, his contributions are mentioned in independent reviews . While these might count as promo, they discuss his work in some depth. Orange sticker (talk) 08:25, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete: The Variety piece is more of an interview with the subject than an article about him. Rest is rather non-helpful for notability. Oaktree b (talk) 13:19, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep: Not only Dear White People, the four films under his belt are all notable and significant productions, and for each one I found RS that provide reviews or even interviews with him. For instance, there are Variety and Screen Daily reviews for The Dynamiter, Washington Post, and The Hollywood Reporter reviews for You Hurt My Feelings, an interview with Variety and a review from New York Times on his participation in Transpecos, and multiple interviews with Screen Rant, Comic Book Resources, and NPR Illinois on the Disney film Haunted Mansion. He was also nominated for numerous awards, including an Emmy and an Independent Spirit Award. These clearly fulfill WP:FILMMAKER#3 (subject person playing a major role in co-creating a significant work) and #4 (subject person winning critical attention for their works). Passing not only one but two criteria of NBLP is quite an obvious keep. Please take a look at the sources and rationales I presented. — Prince of Erebor  （ The Book of Mazarbul ）  16:08, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep, criterion #3 of FILMMAKER has clearly been met. After sorting through the veritable refbombing above, there's even some GNG-level sourcing like this and maybe this, but I'm not sure he would meet the GNG outright. Toadspike   [Talk]  06:31, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
