Comment: It seems that many of the publications are self-published by Blurb. These do not contribute towards notability, and should probably be removed as possible promo. What is needed is significant coverage WP:SIGCOV in multiple reliable sources that are fully independent of the person themself...what others have written about him. Film awards can help to establish notability if the awards themselves are notable, for example, Golden Globe, Academy Award, etc. Works that are in the permanent collection of several notable museums or national galleries (and are verifiable) can help establish notability. If these types of sources don't yet exisit, it may be too soon for an encyclopedia article for this creative person. Netherzone (talk) 18:53, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
Comment: Not clear that notability has been established here? Theroadislong (talk) 17:34, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
Comment: Couldn't review because the article is crowded by redlinks. I would advice you replacing IMDb citations with reliable and independent (to the topic) references. Happy editing ANUwrites 18:20, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
