Lacks significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Mannion's short film The Defector (not The Defector (film)) seems to have more coverage than Mannion himself; however, I doubt that it would be notable. — JJMC89 (T·C) 03:55, 23 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete tries to show the person is notable because he worked with notable people, but that does not make him notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:49, 25 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
delete fails WP:CREATIVE. No actual awards won and trying to use reviews of his non notable film as sources doesn't add to notability. LibStar (talk) 12:31, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
keep the Defector is notable. Anima is notable. He directed both. Nominated for prominent national award by the Australian Directors guild. Films broadcast on national and international television. Films selected for world class festivals. Directed work broadcast on SBS and CANAL+ . The director is interviewed in several national broadcast and print articles, all listed to source. Deletion schedule is due to user JJMC89 vandalism and COI. rakanishu666 (talk) 12:31, 1 March 2017 (UTC) — rakanishu666 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]
defector is not notable . It does not have an article. LibStar (talk) 23:22, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"COI" JJMC89 claim that it lacks "significant coverage in independent reliable sources." it incorrect. See Sydney Morning Herald, Fairfax media, Radio national, User is unaware of Australian national newspapers and international broadcasters. All are listed in the sources provided in the page. Australian users have added this article to Australian Directors. International editors should consult Australian users. JJMC89 rakanishu666 (talk) 12:31, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"COI" User JJMC89 had no previous issue with article notability, making many edits. Only after edit conflicts, he schedules the article for deletion discussion. This is clearly COI. This needs to be removed from deletion discussion. rakanishu666 (talk) 12:31, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
given your single purpose editing I wonder if you have any connection to the article subject. LibStar (talk) 23:24, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Not enough in-depth coverage from reliable, independent sources to show that he passes WP:GNG, and he doesn't meet WP:CREATIVE. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 16:50, 3 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
possible keep Please give this one a relist, it looks as though there are sources in major media in Australia. I'll take a look now. E.M.Gregory (talk) 17:52, 3 March 2017 (UTC) [reply]

Thanks for your indulgenceof that irregular request added because article was past the 7-day expiradion date.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:24, 3 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dunno I added a few sources, the 2016 article from The Age also ran in the Canberra Times under the title Holt conspiracy theory ripe for filmmaker. Looks like a marginally notable youngish Aussie filmmaker. Possibly just WP:TOOSOON.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:19, 3 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
