  • Comment only: article needs a light grammar/spelling polish before it can be considered. - Dravecky (talk) 06:03, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
  • Additional comment: article will need its QPQ review, along with about half a dozen others by this nominator, some waiting for as much as four weeks. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:09, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
  • New enough, long enough. No indication of copyvio. Article is neutral and decently well written. It is well sourced except for the following:
  • Claims 1982 birthdate, but the source (this) only gives that he was 32 in November 2014.
  • It says he "started his career as a commercials director" but the source only says that he has worked as a commercial director.
Generally well written, hook is uninteresting but sourced and within the character limit. Also, as BlueMoonset noted, the nomination needs a QPQ. G S Palmer (talkcontribs) 19:15, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
Yes, according to the source I claimed that birth year, it's no issue for now. 2nd issue resolved, and QPQ is done. --Captain Assassin! «TCG» 02:01, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
The QPQ and second issue have been resolved, so this nom is almost ready. However, I think the claim of birthdate is still OR, since conceivably, he could have been born in 1981 and still be 32 in 11/2014. G S Palmer (talkcontribs) 14:45, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
@G S Palmer: It's fixed now. --Captain Assassin! «TCG» 11:06, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
Good to go. G S Palmer (talkcontribs) 12:25, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this, but am not finding the hook fact about the film being his feature film directorial debut in the inline cite given (footnote 8). Is it in another source? Yoninah (talk) 23:44, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
  • Great, thanks. Hook refs verified and cited inline. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 10:03, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
