Mark Playne

Not notable. One of his films appears to have a very impressive list of awards (many for him) but none of them are major. Some are extremely minor. Has a ridiculous number of sources but there is a lack of good sources. Most are just listings. If no sources were found, just make some [1] [2] [3]. The is a lack of coverage about Playne. In the current version there is local interest puff piece [4] that has any depth of coverage about him. A search found none better. This is advertising from paid spammers. duffbeerforme (talk) 11:42, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Agree with nom. He's directed one film which has received some local coverage, but there isn't sufficient coverage in high-quality sources to satisfy either WP:CREATIVE or WP:BIO. SmartSE (talk) 22:50, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per coverage to meet WP:BIO and awards to meet WP:ANYBIO. No evidence has been brought forward to support the nom's allegation of paid spam editing by author Fraancosd. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 08:25, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your "coverage" is 11 hits. First ""Love at First Sight," director Mark Playne." is the complete trivial mention. Just a listing. Second. Unrelated. Third. "In the fiction film category, an international entry ‘Love at first sight’ by Mark Playne won the first spot " That's it, trivial coverage. Fourth. "The audience choice award was given to the short film Love at First Sight by Mark Playne from United Kingdom." That;s it, trivial coverage. Fifth. "Amor a primera vista. Dirección: Mark Playne. País: Reino Unido" Just a listing. None even remotely good enough for WP:BIO. No major awards does not meet WP:ANYBIO. duffbeerforme (talk) 11:28, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
