Winning a best short film award at a relatively minor film festival is not, in and of itself, enough notability to give a film director a free pass over
reliable source coverage in media. Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future when there's more substance and better sourcing to offer. Bearcat (talk) 19:49, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply

Please see article http://www.southerngazette.ca/News/Local/2016-05-18/article-4532717/Grand-Bank-filmmaker-Hollywood-bound/1 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hollywood1965 (talk • contribs) 00:55, 19 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

One article about him in his own hometown local newspaper does not get a person over

WP:GNG by itself. If you're shooting for "notable because media coverage of him exists", rather than "notable because he's achieved something that objectively passes a notability criterion", then there have to be several pieces of coverage from a range of sources not limited to a single local smalltown area. Get back to us when you can show coverage on the order of the Toronto Star, the Ottawa Citizen, the Vancouver Sun, the Winnipeg Free Press or The Globe and Mail — but the Burin Peninsula's Southern Gazette covering a person who's from the Burin Peninsula is not, in and of itself, a GNG pass if it's the best you can do for sourceability.

Delete as nothing at all actually suggests the needed applicable notability and I would've explored PROD. SwisterTwister talk 05:34, 22 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I did
PROD it, but the tag was removed. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 11:21, 22 May 2016 (UTC)[reply
