Non-notable filmaker. Sources cover her films and book, however none which are independent provide significant coverage of the subject herself. Jack Frost (talk) 10:38, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

Thanks, ✗  plicit  11:32, 16 August 2021 (UTC) Filmmaker Sybil Drew is significant because she released a documentary film in 2020 of significance that "chronicled" and documented the building of one of the largest Industrial Parks in the world, and the largest Solar Farm in the midwestern United States. It is an important film because it is one of the only films produced so far that shows the city of South Bend, Indiana and background of current political rising star and possible future US president Pete Buttigieg. Because of it's educational and cultural importance it was recently included as a US Public Library System documentary film selection for 2021. RodelAudio (talk) 11:31, 17 August 2021 (UTC)

Sybil Drew should not be deleted because her film Prime Farmland is successful and played online on Amazon and lots of other places. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1008:b061:e9f9:3c53:b72c:e8a9:4560 (talk) 23:22, 17 August 2021 (UTC)

Sorry, I disagree, keep Sybil Drew because she is a notable documentary filmmaker with a track record of making films. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:6010:3a02:b00:d5bc:6726:642a:d05 (talk) 23:29, 17 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete - While her works might be notable, it doesn't appear the she is - and notability is not inherited. BilledMammal (talk) 22:55, 20 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete based on assessment of sources.

Most of the sources are either written by the subject, don't mention the subject at all, or from unreliable sources, so this is a clear GNG fail. Qwaiiplayer (talk) 14:14, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete -- As per Qwaiiplayer, with especially problematic being insufficient sources.-- Melaleuca alternifolia  |  talk  19:29, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
