Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a filmmaker, not properly sourced as passing our notability criteria for filmmakers. The notability claim here is that his work exists, and the article claims absolutely nothing (e.g. major film awards) that would be "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to pass WP:GNG on his sourceability, but the article is completely unsourced and has been tagged for that problem for over a decade without improvement. As I can't read German and don't have access to databases of archived German media coverage, I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody who does have access to such resources can find sufficient coverage to salvage the article -- but nothing here is "inherently" notable without GNG-worthy sourcing for it, and the lack of an article on the German Wikipedia (where a genuinely notable German filmmaker would clearly be expected to have an article) doesn't fill me with much hope.

 * Delete Looks like glorified resume and the only semi-notable work is the documentary on the Swedish band Truckfighters, which is far from satisfying WP:BLP and with it being unsourced for a decade, I really don't understand how this can be salvaged. It looks like some more fancruft was added in January mentioning a documentary on Joe Scofield and two upcoming movies, though, again, without any sources. Assuming that sources in German are found, they still will need to verify WP:GNG due to lack of inherent notability as mentioned by the nominator. Strong delete.

 * Hi there, I'm fixing the German Wikipedia entry of the filmmaker atm. Is there any way to "re-animate" and source the previously existing page? Or do I have to recreate it?- I'm pretty new here, so any advice would be helpful. Thanks! Geeker7 (talk) 14:20, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
