The result was delete. Simply asserting that GNG is met is worthless without actually pointing to sources. Merely being a film director or producer does not automatically put one over the GNG line sans sources. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 02:36, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Rajeev Barnwal

WP:BLP of a film industry worker, not reliably sourced as passing any part of WP:CREATIVE. The only notability claim stated here at all is that he and the films he's worked on exist, which is not an automatic inclusion freebie in the absence of any reliable source coverage in media to establish the significance of his work -- but of the eight citations here five are to IMDb, two are to other IMDb-like directories, and the only one that comes from an actual media outlet is a Q&A interview with somebody else in which Rajeev Barnwal is the interviewer -- which means even that source is not about him for the purposes of helping to establish his notability. People do not get over our inclusion rules just because you can show them as the bylined creator of media coverage about other things -- they require sources in which they're the subject of media coverage created by other people. And as for his filmography, he was a "set cashier", not a performer or filmmaker, in the first film listed, and an unnamed bit part actor in the second, so those two films have nothing whatsoever to do with establishing his notability -- and while the other two films listed are potentially more significant, simply having screenwriting and directing credits still isn't an automatic inclusion freebie in the absence of much better sourcing than this.
