Review under Wikipedia's new article curation / review process

Thanks for your work on this article. As a part of Wikipedia's new article review / curation process I just reviewed the article.

In my opinion, this topic, to the extent visible in the article does not meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines which is a requirement for existence of a separate article on topic. This guideline is described at WP:Notability and in the specialized guidelines linked at the beginning of that page which provide somewhat of an alternate. The core element of wp:notability is that there are some independent published sources which covered the topic of the article in depth. Three of the four reference were check-able and were just listings type coverage. The fourth was not check-able be me, a book which was about an organization/ group that he was a part of the L.A. Rebellion. I also found nothing that establishes him under the special notability guideline which would allow temporary bypassing of the sourcing/coverage requirements. Regarding his career in his profession, it appears that he directed a film in college as a class project, and then worked in staff positions in several other films and endeavors. I have marked the article for review under Wikipedia's Articles for Deletions process so that the community may decide. Perhaps this his coverage should instead be a paragraph in the L.A. Rebellion Regarding the history of the article, it was previously deleted. Sincerely, North8000 (talk) 16:34, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
