Unsuccessful Academy Award nominee. Fails WP:CREATIVE. Tchaliburton (talk) 05:37, 14 December 2014 (UTC) Withdrawn by nominator. Tchaliburton (talk) 21:37, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:ANYBIO - "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for one several times". Has been nominate for several other awards, including winning a BAFTA. And per WP:BEFORE, too. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 10:34, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per what Lugnuts said. An Oscar nomination is a major recognition regardless of not winning. Not only that, I found coverage about the person very easily here and here. Tchaliburton, per WP:BEFORE, you should research the topic outside its Wikipedia article to see if it is notable. The Wikipedia article's condition has no bearing on whether or not the person is notable. Erik (talk | contrib) ^{(ping me)} 20:15, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per L and E. A person does not have to win an award to be notable in their field. MarnetteD|Talk 21:21, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Per Lugnuts. A BAFTA award win is arguably the highest film honor in the UK, after a BAFTA Fellowship. Add to that an oscar nom and the man is notable. Betty Logan (talk) 02:48, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
