The result was Keep. Both the numbers and the strength of arguments favors keep. If someone wants to merge, or discuss a merge, that doesn't need an AfD. DES ^(talk) 00:40, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BIO, not notable Alan - talk 21:34, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The award nomination, plus six references, is enough to convince me that this is a notable topic. Alzarian16 (talk) 22:42, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

How does one nomination for an internet award that has only been given out once so far (and not even a mainstream award) make anything notable? Alan - talk 04:09, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps the award was a bad example, as I hadn't noticed it had only been given out once. However, the article's content is still enough to convince me that we should keep it as the offline references seem to meet WP:N. Alzarian16 (talk) 12:23, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I can find no evidence of any notable awards. His IMDB profile indicates he has been nominated for a Razzie. I'd be skeptical of the offline sources as anything but fact confirmation based on his name being listed as a writer. For example, Roger Ebert's reviews are also online. His Tooth Fairy review just lists the writing credit as part of the infobox. -- Whpq (talk) 14:25, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Source 1 isn't just fact confirmation. Gran² 19:58, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Seems to have more behind him as a producer. Anyone care to dig through these RS to see if any are more than a mention? Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 03:03, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep He wrote several reasonably high profile films, which I think places him just above the threshold. -- Scorpion ⁰⁴²² 19:47, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Has coverage in reliable secondary sources, wrote some recent films etc. I don't know what the policy is regarding these sorts of things, but I'd have no aversions to merging this with Jeffrey Ventimilia. Gran² 19:58, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep/Merge per Scorpion and Gran. CTJF83 chat 19:55, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
