Omar McClinton

 * – ( View AfD View log ) •

This article is about a person who has had various roles in the movie industry. I can find no coverage about him in reliable sources to establish notability. Specifically with respect to his entertainment career, there is no evidence of any awards for his works in visual effects, or any of the other roles he has played.

 * Delete Only ref provided is an IMDB page, which doesn't cut it. The Eskimo (talk) 22:58, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Correction, McClinton's home page is also cited, but again that doesn't pass wp:rs, and the is the press release about the Stork (film) which seems to indicate that McClinton is notable in the industry...but I am not sure how credible it is, and stand by my delete vote for now. WP does have an article Stork (film), but it doesn't mention McClinton, so I'm not sure if it's the same film (even so, I think that it should probably be deleted as well...will take a second look at the refs provided) The Eskimo (talk) 23:04, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - The film you linked is a 1971 film. The press release is about this one. -- Whpq (talk) 02:00, 17 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete I find credits as VFX Coordinator and Visual effects in some Google Books matches but nothing to address the significant impact required for a biographical article. Fæ (talk) 07:54, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
 * keep or delete if visual effects people are production managers have articles then i say keep because he has worked on some major projects if not gut it because it comes off as a promo at the moment anywaysHemanetwork (talk) 08:47, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete – doesn't seem to have created any major works to pass WP:CREATIVE, and I can't find sources to pass WP:GNG. Bigger digger (talk) 17:14, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
