 * Comment. A Google search for "Micah Ainsley Brown" filtered for news returns exactly one hit, and it only mentions him in passing. —C.Fred (talk) 20:51, 17 December 2016 (UTC)

agreed - most of the sources are new media outlets, startup competitions and smaller publishers which do not show up under the google news filter. A search of "micah brown" and "filmfundr" brings back 721 results, most of which is small publisher and affiliate driven, news, but still public presence specifically focused on film which qualifies as fulfilling this requirement "The person has made a widely recognised contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field." a search of "micah ainsley brown" specfcially returns 2460 results of a similar nature. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Centiment (talk • contribs) 21:14, 17 December 2016 (UTC)

Changes to the article to reflect wikipedia standards are welcome, however the evidence does indicate that the subject fulfills wikipedia guidelines — Preceding unsigned comment added by Centiment (talk • contribs) 21:19, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
