[edit] Jimmy Curry

Completing incomplete afd nomination from User:165.189.91.148. Edit summary consists of "afd -- A7 vanity, unreferenced (supplied link is an unvetted press release written by subject), grandiose claims, spamming multiple articles." Ricky81682 (talk) 19:49, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete Unless some serious sources can be produced. IMDB has never heard of him, his feature, or the Lenny Kravitz documentary. Fan1967 20:16, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak Strong delete I heavily edited the article and have been pestering the creator to defend it. I think the films are real based on the external link I added (which meets WP:V for "Self-published sources in articles about themselves"), but I don't think he or his movies are notable enough to merit keeping the article.--Chaser (T) 21:55, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep I'm entering this keep vote on behalf of the page's creator, curiously named Doctorcreator, on account of his comments on this article and his own talk pages and his indication in the article that Curry was the first Bahamian filmmaker. I'm not sure about casting a vote on his behalf, and I'd welcome comments from the closing admin about whether it's proper to do so. For full disclosure, I will note that he has less than 20 edits, all of them related to this page or variations. --Chaser (T) 20:01, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
    I got a reply email. He's working with this guy on films. I'm changing the strength of my vote. --Chaser T 05:54, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Notability is lacking, and apparently a vanity page (from comment above). Equendil Talk 06:32, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
