[edit] Gallen Mei

Non-notable photographer. Contested prod. MER-C 09:20, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete. Article has information that is not independently verifiable about a photographer who, yes, doesn't seem notable: his own site doesn't mention, and Google does not suggest, awards, independent reviews, solo exhibitions, or notable publication. -- Hoary 09:23, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete non-notable. SteveHopson 13:12, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep notable film director. --Vsion 13:13, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
    • Question: Er, how "notable"? There's now a link to IMDB, but this says next to nothing about him (and certainly doesn't verify much of what's in this article). It does however link to this page, which (perhaps unfairly) tells us that one of his movies is quite outstandingly bad. Is it the single unfavorable review that brings notability? Or is there something else? -- Hoary 15:34, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment Is every film director automatically notable? I could only find one review of one of his films. In that critic's opinion, the film was abysmal. I stick with my Delete vote above. SteveHopson 15:39, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
      • Well, um, he might be a notable case study in the world of dentistry. -- Hoary 16:07, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. The films he has directed seem, uh, let's say "underground." Don't see any reliable sources him about on Google. Recury 14:32, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
