This article is completely unsourced and does not assert notability nor provide any reliable sources or any sources at all. This may even be a hoax, no proof of subject's existence. Should be deleted at once! NewAtThis (talk) 03:01, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep. Emmy-winning designer who was also nominated for a Tony and multiple Oscars per his rather extensive obit in the New York Times. Article needs to have sources added, but they aren't hard to find. This one seems a no-brainer. Deor (talk) 03:13, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep, and strongly suggest nominator do some checking before making intemperate nominations. Clearly does assert notability which is easily confirmed. --Dhartung | Talk 03:15, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
article still does not assert notability nor provide any sources, reliable or otherwise, my vote is till deleteNewAtThis (talk) 03:34, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. I've added the NY Times, IMDb and IBDb references. (According to Kate's Tool, you really are new at this. Oh well, live and learn.) Clarityfiend (talk) 04:19, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep Clarityfiend has sourced this and the nomination seems to be carrying on in blind ignorance to the page itself. (By the way, someone should look at User:NewAtThis's page, which is a copy of currently up for AfD Gayelle (lesbian).) JuJube (talk) 04:26, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Motion to close, speedy keep per recent improvements that deal with the issues, that made me nominate.NewAtThis (talk) 04:28, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
