[edit] Tim Kirkman

Not clearly notable. A few films that have been nominated for notable awards, but did not win. No clear indication that the awards that have been won are notable. So delete, pending an indication of notability. Regards Ben Aveling 11:17, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Strongly Keep. I've never heard of him, or his films, but that doesn't mean he's not notable! So his films didn't win 'notable' awards. How many other directors have not won awards, but have articles in Wikipedia? Nominated at Sundance for a Grand Jury prize and nominated for an Emmy impresses me. His films also have wiki articles and, while I note that Kirkman himself has contributed to all of these articles, they have been on wiki for some years. No reason to delete, unless you happen to be Jesse Helms. Emeraude 12:51, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Conditional Keep I'd like to see sources for the claims in the article, specifically the Emmy nomination. If that's the real deal, and if someone can show a source for the Sundance information, then this is definitely worthy. Tony Fox (arf!) 20:20, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Strongly Keep!I don't think this should be deleted on the grounds of "un-notable" awards etc. I think that is a matter of opinion- I am quite sure the people that have enjoyed his work find him quite notable whether he won awards or not.
