Tom Storvik

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No notable works, fails WP:NDIRECTOR and is generally WP:TOOSOON —   IVORK  Discuss 08:14, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

Whilst understanding the reasoning, I want to draw attention to a couple of other articles concerning directors with even, or lesser, experience / detailed articles / noted works.
 * Delete, too soon. Geschichte (talk) 12:15, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

David Berget (One short film as notable credit, not even referencing IMDb on site.)
 * Requires a source to verify selected by Danny Lennon to screen in a special program under The 64th annual Cannes Film festival —   IVORK  Discuss 23:17, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

Line Halvorsen (No notable productions according to Wikis terms. Short article. One of the things the article states she is notable for is the "behind the scenes" featurette of a TV show in 2000.)
 * May need clarification as to what award it was that A stone's throw away (2003) actually won. —   IVORK  Discuss

Camilla Stroem Henriksen (Noted for TV without much sourcing. Should rather be listed as an actress, if anything, as that's where her notability is due to being nominated for Actress awards.)
 * Is notable due to won the Best Actress Rouen Nordic Film Festival, I've found and added a source to prevent it being deleted under WP:BLPPROD. —   IVORK  Discuss

Cato Manuel Ekrene (No titles of notability. Short article. Speculation in future, clearly not updated since 2014 as "Run" never happened as planned - turned into a short with no distribution.)
 * Already deleted this morning under WP:CSD by User:Deb —  IVORK  Discuss

Hanne Myren (Also only one notable title that allows listing in this category. Very short page.)
 * Already deleted this morning under WP:CSD by User:Deb —  IVORK  Discuss

Ingeranna Krohn-Nydal (Only one semi-notable title, short page.)
 * Notable for winning the 1993 International Federation of Film Critics award at the International Leipzig Festival for Documentary and Animated Film, however would be good to find additional sourcing (I couldn't from a brief search) —   IVORK  Discuss

Geir Ove Kvalheim (Not even a director. At most, a journalist or an extra in films.)
 * Potentially notable for his political work and legal issues, article is currently unsourced and will need references from no:Geir Ove Kvalheim or otherwise to avoid WP:BLPPROD deletion —   IVORK  Discuss

Cecilie Mosli (Should, if anything, be listed as an actor. Wiki apparently states that directing single episodes do not qualify for inclusion, so would assume this applies here.)
 * Has a few works, directing episodes of Grey's Anatomy helps to qualify her —   IVORK  Discuss

Hisham Zaman (Not arguing against this one, per se, as since it was made he has made "Letters to the King". Just saying that it should be updated and expande, and using it as a point of contetion as this clearly got made before Hisham Zaman was notable per the definitions used against this article.)
 * Needs new references as the only one on the page is currently leading to a 404. Notability depends on what these awards for the short films are —   IVORK  Discuss

Hallvar Witzø (Noted for a short film whose nomination was pulled for an Academy Award, since made one short and directed reality TV.)
 * Is notable due to the Academy Award nomination. —   IVORK  Discuss

Morten Skallerud (Made a few shorts, one won one award.)
 * Notable due to winning Amanda Award for Best Short Film in 1991 —   IVORK  Discuss

Øyvind Sandberg (TV Documentaries and one short.)
 * Won two awards at the Tromsø International Film Festival —   IVORK  Discuss

David Reiss-Andersen (Has one upcoming film, otherwise not a notable director per Wiki. Notable Ad Agency owner, though.)
 * Arguably not notable. Family ties do not automatically make the descendant notable. Would need to verify the notability of Pravda though —   IVORK  Discuss

Now, these pages, in my opinion, fall under the same issues as raised against this page. All things being equal, as these pages have been approved, as should this one. Either that, or the pages listed should be updated/removed following the precedent these articles have set for inclusion. I have no quarrel with either alternative, but removal of this article without updates/changes/removal of the aforementioned articles, I do have an issue with, as their inclusion on Wiki has set a precedent for article inclusion under the Norwegian Director category.


 * Keep, precedent sat by other Wiki articles clearly shows this article should not be deleted. Gregor101z (talk) 10:08, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Per below, you're correct in stating that those pages don't all show notability. Some have already actually been deleted, others do state and provide references to the awards won for their work, which per WP:NDIRECTOR, does qualify them for inclusion. I have responded to each as to it's notability. However the underlying issue is that Tom Storvik has not won any awards for his works nor does he meet any other criteria in WP:NDIRECTOR or WP:GNG otherwise —   IVORK  Discuss 23:17, 29 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. The other pages should be looked at with a possible view to deletion as well. Deb (talk) 15:02, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
