Max Anderson (British director)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unreferenced for seven years. Looked around and couldn't find any sources. Only directed a handful of films, and only mentions in books are film repositories just listing him when noting Daybreak in Udi with no extra information. Wizardman 17:26, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment Despite what the article formerly said, listing Anderson as director of Daybreak in Udi, sources list Terry Bishop as its director - our article on the film says Anderson produced it but the sources do not confirm this. --Colapeninsula (talk) 17:34, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment Listed as the producer on Daybreak.. here.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 07:27, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. Anyone who has a tribute ceremony in their honour at the National Film Theatre is clearly worthy of an encyclopedia entry.  And well done to User:Aymatth2 for finding the references and putting the work in.  --Rob Sinden (talk) 16:01, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep Per the excellent expansion work by Aymatth2 and agree with the page move.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 19:20, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is a thin biography, mostly but not entirely a catalog of works, but at least three of the works are notable enough to warrant articles. There are enough sources, even if superficial in coverage, to satisfy WP:GNG. The tributes probably give more depth. A notable director. Aymatth2 (talk) 01:33, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep certainly no question as to his notability as a British documentarian, at this point. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 01:39, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

I'll give credit to Aymatth2 for the expansion. I looked around and couldn't find anything, how he found all that is impressive. Suffice to say, nom withdrawn. Wizardman 01:57, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
