List of prolific film directors

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

PRODed with reason "Unsourced and no scope defined. 200 is a vague number and I see no consensus on wiki or globally anywhere established to call 200+ as "prolific"." Later dePRODed by creator with reason "Somewhat disingenuous to remove content and then prod; restored content and removed prod". Well, the content removal was because the previous limit of 200+ was pushed down to 50+ by a newish editor to add in many Indian directors. Still see no reason for dePROD or anything worthwhile to keep this POV list of prolifics. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 05:59, 31 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete. Arbitrary definition/criterion, plus counting shorts on a par with feature films is ridiculous. I see one article about noted directors who also happen to be exceedingly prolific, but that's about it. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:32, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - no evidence of WP:LISTN being met. I also agree that the numbers 200 and 50 seem completely arbitrary. Spiderone  16:58, 3 January 2017 (UTC)
