According to the IMDB this director has no movies to his credit apart from the one listed, and that is not yet released. Not notable. DJ Clayworth 19:41, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Also the movie Last Time Forever and it's copy Last Time Forever (2006). DJ Clayworth

• Delete until they've actually released a movie, delete.--Andeh 19:56, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Do not delete - This director is mentioned in a related article. - 112233445566 20:21, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

This article contains a link to an article about the film he directed; likewise, the article about the film contains a link to this article. It should not be deleted. -- Filmbuff1 20:24, 6 July 2006 (UTC) (Note:Filmbuff1 has made only six edits, all to this page or the pages it references DJ Clayworth)

• Delete The article states this is the director's debut movie. Also, NO other mentions on IMDB for a movie that has no notority mean this should be delete for WP:NN Wildthing61476 20:32, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Do Not Delete According the article about the film, it was screened at an international film festival. Notable. JoanneC 21:41, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

  Comment, Users first and currently only edit, only took them 6 minutes to find this AfD from the time they created the account.--Andeh 21:44, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Comment - I don't see anything in the film's article about a festival screening, let alone any citations for that statement. HumbleGod 23:10, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Non-notable, vanity page. Mrmctorso 22:03, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

  Comment If the article is deleted, this should redirect to Last Time Forever (song), which formerly resided at this page (the creator of this article left quite a bit of cleanup to do after arbitrarily moving that one). Mrmctorso 22:13, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

• Comment decided to add the above template due to edits such as the ones done by KiteRunner (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) to this AfD. I've reverted the edits now.--Andeh 22:16, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete all three as nn & vanity. Mr Stephen 22:26, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

The article about this director ought to be preserved as a stub. CitizenKane41 23:37, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Comment, users first and currently only edits are to this AfD.--Andeh 22:59, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Comment - Please make your case, CitizenKane41. Why should this be preserved? HumbleGod 23:10, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete this and the movie pages - article does not make its case for notability. Textbook WP:NN, possibly WP:VAIN since we're seeing a lot of apparent sockpuppets here. HumbleGod 23:10, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Comment The article about this director is a stub; and, as a community, we are supposed to value stubs as useful first steps toward complete articles. If this article is deleted on the grounds that the director has only made one film, or on the grounds that the film has not yet been released, then steps should be taken to delete other US Film Director Stubs on the same grounds. There are quite a few such stubs, including articles on: John Roecker, Adam Minarovich, Nicedisc, Patrik-Ian Polk, Tennyson Bardwell, and Tony Giglio. These directors are hardly more "notable" than the director in question, and yet aforementioned articles have not been deleted. CitzenKane41 23:51, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Comment very good research. I suggest that you either PROD or AFD those directors as well. --Pboyd04 23:54, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Seconded. Bad articles are not excuses for more bad articles, they are just potential AfD candidates too. --DaveG12345 00:55, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete nn doesn't meet WP:BIO --Pboyd04 23:52, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete All per HumbleGod. NN/vanity, crystal-balling re the film having any notability. --DaveG12345 00:55, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

• DO NOT DELETE This is a United States film director stub. There are many articles in this category which are similar in that they do not contain much information - this does not deserve to be deleted. Journalist 15:30, 7 July 2006 (UTC) (this contribution made by User:112233445566)

• Comment - First off, I unbolded this "vote" and bolded your original one, since you've already posted your opinion (at least) once. (Forgive the snarkiness, but maybe you need to make sure you know which username you're logged in under before signing "unique" comments?) As for your reasoning here, as DaveG12345 noted, bad articles are not an excuse for more bad articles. The fact is that the article hasn't come close to proving its own notability. Unless this changes in a way that satisfies WP standards, I can't see a good reason why it should exist. HumbleGod 19:44, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
