 * comment what was "illegal" about the removed refs? Artw (talk) 23:10, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment They were IMDB refs, user generated content, not under editorial control, and as such not allowed as proper refs, since they can't be verified correctly. But even using the IMDB links, I don't think he was notable, although it is up to the discussion to determine it. scope_creep (talk) 01:42, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. Director of significant and well known film, Wrong Side of the Road. Multiple AACTA Awards (previously AFI) nominations. duffbeerforme (talk) 04:49, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep He's won at least one AACTA/AFI award, as producer of Best Documentary in 1994 (50 Years of Silence). Plus nominations in other years including Wrong Side of the Road which is a very notable film. The article itself needs to be improved, there are probably references out there talking about Lander's long history in films about Indigenous Australian topics.

 * Keep Directed historically important and notable film Wrong Side of the Road. Online coverage is limited as someone who made films in pre-internet days, but he is featured in several books and articles on Australian film and particularly the representation of Aboriginals. More recently he's worked at Special Broadcasting Service which has attracted a bit of coverage in Australian media trade press. --Colapeninsula (talk) 10:09, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
