Deletion Sorting
Project

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Actors and filmmakers. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion
Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
  1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Actors and filmmakers|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
Removing a closed AfD discussion
Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
Other types of discussions
You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Actors and filmmakers. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
Further information
For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Not yet notable per WP:ARTIST, WP:BIO or WP:GNG. A WP:BEFORE search for his name in English and Kannada turns up no significant coverage in reliable sources. He's mentioned only in passing as a curator in the sources cited, with nothing about his contributions being "acknowledged" as described. Unsourced claims about his early and personal life, the posed photo used and article creator's edit history all suggest a conflict of interest. Wikishovel (talk) 07:32, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG. WP:REFBOMB and violation of WP:COI. All of the sources are promotional. Independent and reliable sources are needed for passing GNG. Kadı Message 21:47, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Özdemir, Gülçin, Berceste (2019) Türkiye'de Bağımsız Sinemaya Dair Tartışmalar Istanbul. Nobel Bilimsel Eserler ISBN 6056928764 may be acceptable, but only this source is not adequate for keeping this article too. Kadı Message 21:55, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The nomination misrepresents the sources and appears to be the continuation of a personal content dispute related to BLP issues, which is specifically not a valid reason for deletion (see WP:BLPDELETE). AfD is not the appropriate venue for resolving disagreements about content.
The claim that “all sources are promotional” is factually incorrect. The subject is covered by multiple independent, reliable, secondary sources, including:
Academic publication: Özdemir & Berceste (2019), Türkiye’de Bağımsız Sinemaya Dair Tartışmalar, Nobel Bilimsel Eserler, ISBN 6056928764
(Academic sources by definition are NOT promotional and fully meet WP:RS.)
National media profiles and interviews
Film festival coverage
Cultural journalism
Independent industry commentary
These satisfy WP:GNG through significant, independent coverage over multiple years.
The article clearly meets the notability standards for creative professionals (WP:GNG, WP:NART, WP:BIO).
Deletion is not justified. Andreasfromparis (talk) 07:07, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Furthermore, the tone and escalation of this nomination raise concerns related to Wikipedia’s guideline “Please Do Not Bite the Newcomers.”
The nomination and subsequent comments appear unnecessarily adversarial, and the use of AfD in the immediate aftermath of a BLP dispute risks discouraging constructive participation rather than resolving content concerns through normal editorial processes.
The article meets notability standards, has independent coverage, and can be improved rather than deleted.
Deletion is not appropriate. Andreasfromparis (talk) 07:14, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
In addition to the points above, I would like to clarify that the article currently contains 58 independent, reliable references, including:
Major international media outlets from all around the world (Vogue US, VICE, I-D, Die Welt)
US cultural diplomacy sources (OneBeat / U.S. Cultural Department)
British, French, Australian, German, and Turkish national publications
Festival coverage across Europe and the U.S.
Cultural journalism, film criticism, and industry reporting
Academic coverage:
Türkiye’de Bağımsız Sinemaya Dair Tartışmalar, Nobel Bilimsel Eserler, ISBN 6056928764
These sources clearly fulfill the requirements of WP:GNG and WP:NART, which require significant, independent, reliable coverage. Academic sources alone meet WP:RS; combined with dozens of international media sources, the subject’s notability is not in question.
The suggestion that “all sources are promotional” does not align with the actual references listed on the page, which come overwhelmingly from independent and reputable outlets worldwide.
Given the breadth and depth of coverage across multiple countries and independent organizations, the article clearly meets Wikipedia’s notability standards and should be retained. Andreasfromparis (talk) 07:30, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You've provided strong opinions and described a range of sources, but it doesn't make for a particularly clear argument. A simple way to pass WP:NCREATIVE is to have multiple independently-notable works. Can you consult WP:NFILM and provide a list of 2+ works that meet the NFILM criteria, clearly stating which of the numbered criteria they meet and linking the relevant sources? ~ L 🌸 (talk) 22:31, 22 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am a little surprised that I have had to bring this to AfD (although redirect to Tik and Tok might be fine but I am checking their notability next) because this page lists numerous accomplishments but when I try to check them out I can't find them or they are documented with self-published sources. In addition the article was created by what appears to be a COI account (NOIR Ltd.) and has been consistently updated by the subject of the article himself. Sources I have found include this book mention, this shorter mention in a magazine, and here in a list of mimes in star wars. Moritoriko (talk) 05:50, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Completing nomination for IP user. Their argument for deletion is:

Ex biker who's written some books and consulted on some TV shows about being a biker.
Most of the sources are user generated sites like IMDB or sites linked directly to the subject. The independent sources that mention him are either passing mentions or promotional content.
I don't think any of this gives him enough notability for a wiki page. Here2rewrite (talk) 16:27, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

1. The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors; Winterhalder was a former high-ranking world leader of the Bandidos motorcycle club. He was involved in the Quebec Biker War to the extent he was notably subject to legal proceedings in Canada to prevent him from entering the country. 2. The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, or of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series); He documented his career in the Bandidos and his account of the Quebec Biker War in his autobiographical books The Assimilation and Searching for My Identity Volumes 1 and 2 providing a unique first hand view of these events, which is currently in development for TV. Winterhalder also Passes WP:GNG given above and his wide range of other books and TV projects and interviews — Preceding unsigned comment added by ~2025-35222-97 (talk) 21:54, 20 November 2025 (UTC) — 2025-35222-97 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Most of the coverage seems to be about BFDI and I don't think it passes GNG. The non-BFDI related information is trivial and doesn't establish notability much, though I might be wrong on this. I think this should be redirected to Battle for Dream Island unless more coverage is found. Z E T A3 02:32, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Draft/Weak keep: The argument isn't a really good excuse though I see your reasoning. Subject rarely passes WP:SIGCOV with only one source significantly talking about Michael himself in detail, and I notice a couple sources having no correlation to Michael himself in detail or in general, or blatantly talking about The Scale of the Universe with his brother, failing WP:NRV. I see potential of a standalone article rather than a full deletion but for now, this is gonna need more reputable sources about Michael in detail. ConeKota (talk) 02:52, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect We can't just have non-notable articles in hopes that they will eventually become notable. He's not individually notable from the article yet. Redirect to Battle for Dream Island. WiinterU 03:14, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect, as a fan of BFDI Michael doesnt seem to be very notable individually(only known for 2 things and most of the coverage is about those 2 works), especially that its not merged with cary Animalsrule2024 (talk) 03:39, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This isn't a valid argument to be honest. ConeKota (talk) 04:25, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I think the points are valid. I don't see how the Cary draft can avoid being near-identical to this article. There are a couple of things that set Cary apart from Michael (Abacaba[1][2][3] and 10003 Caryhuang), but not much that would set Michael apart from Cary. Both are best known for what they've worked on together, so it would make more sense to have just one article that's about both of them. If each twin gets a separate article, it may be difficult for us to agree on redirect targets for Huang twins, Huang brothers and Cary and Michael Huang. – MrPersonHumanGuy (talk) 12:31, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Battle for Dream Island or draftify and move protect per Star Mississippi. Unfortunately this is what some people were worried about once this topic became notable, the proliferation of spinoff articles about non-notable topics.

Article about a filmmaker, not properly sourced as having any strong claim to passing WP:CREATIVE. This has existed for almost an entire decade, and spent most of that time completely unreferenced (and thus never should have survived this long) until having just one reference added to it only in August of this year. Even that one reference isn't really about him, however, but just briefly namechecks him in the process of being about a viral video -- so it would just make him a WP:BLP1E, not a person who had passed WP:GNG on substantive coverage and analysis about him and his work, if we took it as his principal notability claim.
But otherwise, this is strictly on the level of "person who did stuff", with the only other attempt at a notability claim being a list of awards from minor regional or local film festivals that are not highly meganotable enough to confer an automatic free pass over WP:NFILM without reliable sourcing to support them.
Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be the subject of a lot more GNG-worthy media coverage than this. Bearcat (talk) 13:27, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: The citations presented are OK and will pass notability guidelines. In particular the articles in BBC, Jerusalem post, The Guardian and Jerusalem post are the best ones. Yolandagonzales (talk) 16:31, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Most of those are not even in the article at all, and thus have not been "presented" — and all of them are covering him strictly in the context of the same single viral video, and thus have failed to demonstrate that he would pass WP:BLP1E. Bearcat (talk) 02:58, 22 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The article doesn’t meet WP:GNG or WP:BIO. Almost all sources are promotional blogs, PR-style features, or company-affiliated writeups. They repeat Marino’s business résumé but don’t provide independent, in-depth coverage about him as a subject. The only reliable sources (Variety) barely mention Marino and are focused on the film Lice, not on him personally. His notability in those articles is routine involvement as Kevin Connolly’s business partner, which falls under WP:NOTINHERITED. Acrom12 (talk) 03:36, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

In The Little Dragons, the two main protagonists of the film are brothers Zack and Woody, played by Chris Petersen and his brother Pat Petersen.

Based entirely on non-independent sources. Not clear this singer is independently notable of Sweetbox. Fails WP:GNG. 4meter4 (talk) 02:56, 13 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Sweetbox#Jade Villalon with the edit history preserved under the redirect so editors can selectively merge any reliably sourced encyclopedic content to that article. The only reliable source that covered this artist in depth was this article from her youth [58]. I found this article [59] from 2006, but it's unclear why it reports her as a "German pop singer". Otherwise, there was only passing mentions in routine coverage.Katzrockso (talk) 04:20, 13 November 2025 (UTC) Keep per WP:MUSICBIO. The subject is notable because her album Out of the Box (Jade Valerie album) received #28 on the Oricon Albums Chart in her solo career and charted for 6 weeks overall. She seems to have an East Asian fanbase, which is why it was more difficult to find English coverage. This is doubly problematic given that online Japanese news publications often remove their articles after a short period of time, making finding more coverage even more difficult. Katzrockso (talk) 01:58, 22 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I found a few articles in Korean about her collaboration with Kim Dong-wan here [60] and then a later duet with Brian Joo [61] [62].

I would support a redirect/merge to Sweetbox#Jade Villalon as an WP:ATD. The brief work she has done outside that group could be covered in a couple sentences in that subsection.4meter4 (talk) 14:39, 13 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I am undecided for voting purposes, but will point out that her later solo material (after Sweetbox) was under the name Jade Valerie, which might make a difference when searching. She has two solo albums under that name that have also been nominated for deletion, but nobody seems to have noticed Jade Vilallon discography which will have to be handled if everything in it is declared non-notable. The Jade Villalon section of the Sweetbox article, which has been suggested as a redirect target, is also full of poorly-supported fan trivia. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 15:25, 14 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Nothing about this person in French media. Most are tv show listings/cast credit lists. This was about the only one in a RS [64], it's literally his name in a list of credits for an episode. I don't see a French wiki article, so that's no help.

  • Speedy keep, weird and pointless AfD from a SPA(rtaz) nominator who has spent a decade or more on a morality crusade against pornography. Classic WP:BLP1ENOT, first because there is no "event" as obituaries do not fall into this category, and even assuming there was, the person is certainly not a WP:LOWPROFILE individual. Let alone this is not even a WP:BLP, WP:BLP1E requires each of three conditions being met, and the subject does not meet ANY of them. And the requirement of "real enduring coverage after death" looks like a brand new concept that goes against WP:NTEMP. Very questionable that a 2007 administrator seems unaware the guidelines or, even worse, is intentionally misapplying them due to a personal agenda. Standards were different in 2007, their RfA would today almost certainly be rejected within hours, possibly on the basis of this AfD alone. Cavarrone 08:37, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This was deleted some years ago for being non notable and was recreated and kept after her death in the summer, an avalanche of non policy based keep votes saw it kept, but now the immediacy has died down its time to reevaluate this on a policy based discussion.

So firstly, none of the award based stuff counts, pornbio is long gone and even performers of the year get deleted for failing GNG,

Does this fail GNG? I would argue yes, the only close sources are about her death and the new york daily post is not an RS. ELmundo isn't indepth and there appears to be no independant reporting, just rehashing social media. Then EW has a byline and some evidence of investigating, but at the end is again part obit and part rehashed socials.

Even if we did accept the above sources, this is firmly in BLP1E or ONEEVENT territory.

So fails GNG, ENT, BIO, and BLP1E/ONEEVENT Spartaz Humbug! 11:24, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    This is precisely what I’m talking about. Apologies for the bluntness but this is previsely the policyfree kind of vote that destroyed the last discussion. So how was she notable in her field. Success is not a policy basednargument. What policy and sources are you offering here? I showed you mine, can you show me yours? Spartaz Humbug! 20:23, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    You didn't provide a good reason for another AfD. The notability guidelines are not set in stone and just following the letter of the rules makes me think of WP:LAWYER. Another AfD discussion at the moment tries to delete musical act Gambino Family although they had a Top 20 Billboard album, because there is no list of criteria that establish inherent, uncontestable notability. (A Billboard entry would be a useful citerion, for example). A rule on concert tours says that Michael Jackson's record-setting Bad tour is an example of a notable tour. Such wishy-washy rules help nobody. Maybe there should be a rule that Top 30 searched adult actor on a specific platform should be proof of inherent notability. Otherwise, almost anybody can be deleted. TigerFromEarth (talk) 21:06, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    In addition, WP:ONEEVENT is clearly not applicable here. Her death was only reported so prominently because she was a well-known adult actor. So this is not 'firmly in BLP1E or ONEEVENT territory', as you wrote. TigerFromEarth (talk) 21:34, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Somwell known she has no hope of having an article on that basis alone. Please do share the sources supportimg your assertions Spartaz Humbug! 22:57, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    People magazine, TMZ, German magazine Focus, leading Austrian newspaper Kronen Zeitung reported her death or cause of death in long articles including her biography and career (you can google the articles). Just scratching the surface here. Other notable things about her are already in the article: She was in a Netflix documentary, worked with leading porn production companies, has a nomination for XBIZ. Plus she is a well-known adult actress if you look her up.
    This AfD nomination is doomed to fail anyway as there were no significant changes of circumstances between 2nd and 3rd nomination. TigerFromEarth (talk) 19:27, 11 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG. Not much independent coverage. His limited coverage is mostly interviews and reviews of films made by him. jolielover♥talk 05:06, 9 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, thank you for taking the time to review the article. I believe that there is enough coverage about him to qualify for an article. A lot of the coverage about him is controversial which ultimately does come down to peoples opinion of him. However the citations provided (not all) do link back to established people in the film and media industries whom are discussing him as a director. I didn't include the following information in the article as it hasn't happened yet, an author is writing a book about him, which would be another reliable published source upon completion. is this something you feel should be included, and if you would be able to help me improve the article so it can stay that would be appreciated. many thanks. JoeSage95 (talk) 08:05, 9 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi there, thanks for your comment. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, and we can't determine if someone or something will be notable in the future. As the book is not published as of now, it does not count as a source towards notability. jolielover♥talk 09:34, 9 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed, that is why I didn't include that information in the article as it has not happened yet. However I believe that the citations provided do show his notability within his field as a directer. He has been spoken about by industry professionals, university lecturers, and critics. It just so happens that some of these are in a video format rather than for example a newspaper or book.
If you were to write this article what type of sources would you be looking to include? Books, Magazines, appearances on the news? Im very new to wikipedia. Im really trying but it's confusing. I would like the article to stay up and not be deleted and i'm willing to work to making it the best it can be. JoeSage95 (talk) 10:01, 9 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom.
The article creator has disclosed paid editing on their profile and they also created a (declined) draft for a film made by this BLP, disclosing on the draft page that they were paid for it. That isn't a factor in my vote and they've followed all the guidelines in declaring paid editing, but it's important to note so that their motivation for creating the article (compensation rather than a genuine belief that notability exists) is seen. aesurias (talk) 08:20, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Hi. I’m a new user so I hope it is OK to join the discussion here (new to wikipedia but experienced at editing text). Am I right in thinking that this article is not a new wikipedia entry (history tab shows entries dating back about 8 years)? Also looks like it has had more than 20 contributors, which suggests a certain level of neutrality.
    I was checking out the Wikipedia deletion policy, and found this: “If editing can address all relevant reasons for deletion, this should be done rather than deleting the page”. So just wondering whether improving the article might be an important first step (and may be more consistent with Wikipedia policy)?
    A quick search brings up quite a few sources sources that could be added to improve this article. For instance, I found this reference, which is a third party, independent article with depth of coverage from a reliable source: https://comm.ku.dk/calendar/2019/european-film/

Twice deleted previously. I doubt the person has become notable in WP:GNG sense even though there is a lot of SEO content online. The article is currently being edited by a few WP:SPAs to add negative information, while some IPs appear to be countering those edits (possibly the subject himself). He is mainly for serving as CEO of small companies such as Neptune Wellness Solutions and Schmidt's Naturals. After applying the stringent WP:BLP policy, not much would likely remain, and most of the controversies or negative aspects could be better covered in the Neptune Wellness Solutions article per WP:NOPAGE.

Some cited sources like Forbes article ([67]) falls under WP:FORBESCON, and the Money article is merely an WP:INTERVIEW with limited independent content, written by Paul Schrodt, a professional guest contributor. The article clearly lacks the WP:BLP-quality sources required to meet WP:SIGCOV. A simple redirect to Neptune Wellness Solutions should be enough to preserve relevant information.

  • Comment: I don't think that even though the article is well-sourced, it provides enough basis to create a stand-alone article. According to WP:SIGCOV, the coverage must be non-trivial, but the listed sources are mostly trivial and none focus on their life in a way that would establish notability. If you read the policy, it specifies the use of "secondary" sources, yet most of the listed sources that cover them (independently) are primary sources, such as GMA Network and ABS-CBN. Finally, the sources should be independent of the subject, but of the nearly 40 sources listed, almost all are not independent. - Arcrev1 (talk) 09:55, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment:Looking at the references there are 9 primary sources in the article out of 44 is pikapika, bandera, balita, Interaksyon, adobo magazine etc are not secondary sources? The article looks notable to me unlike the articles of Rupaul's Drag Race contestants. - Zekab (talk)
  • Comment: Sources mentioned by Zekab (Pikapika, Bandera, Balita, Interaksyon, Adobo Magazine) appear to be secondary though some caution is needed with Pikapika as the said publication and the subject's agent are part of the same conglomerate if not the same company. -Ian Lopez @ 17:23, 13 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Ianlopez1115 and Zekab: Yes, what you said is correct. There are many secondary sources in the article, but the question is what makes secondary sources a valid basis for establishing a subject's notability. According to WP:GNG, it requires secondary sources, but those listed or labeled as independent reliable sources do not actually show independence from the subject. The policy says sources must be independent of the subject, non-trivial, and must provide significant coverage. Yes, there are secondary sources, but they do not meet the other criteria. The first source in the article, which is from BANDERA, is the only one that appears to provide real coverage focused on the subject and is independent of the subject. The fourth source, which is from BANDERA INQUIRER, is not independent because it includes Vice Ganda and MC, and it is very trivial, so it is not independent of Lassy. The fifth source is the same. The sixth source is simply news about flooding and not about his life, only a one-time event. The seventh source is from PEP, which is owned by GMA Network, so that is considered primary. The fourteenth source is about a television program, not about Lassy. Sources eight through thirteen are all not about him either. Although they are secondary sources, they are not about Lassy. The twenty first source is also not independent of the subject because MC is included. The twenty first and twenty second sources come from PHILIPPINE STAR and ABANTE, but they are still not independent of the subject. The twenty fifth source comes from ABANTE, but again, it is not independent of the subject. The same applies to the twenty sixth source. The thirtieth source from PIKAPIKA is not coverage about his life. It only says that Vice is confident and proud of him, which is not a story about Lassy or independent of him. The thirty second source is also from PIKAPIKA but is about the life of Chad Kinis. The thirty third source is from ADOBO MAGAZINE, but it is not independent of the subject because it is about the movie Fantastica. The rest can be understood simply by reading the titles. You cannot look only at whether they are secondary sources. Aside from the first one, none of them provide coverage about the subject or independence from the subject. - Arcrev1 (talk) 01:28, 14 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
