This biography of a living director has been on the namespace for five years, and yet it still doesn't have any sources; and speaking of unsourced info about living persons, I think this should be deleted unless there's a decent previous version of it. The most important fact (which is at the bottom) probably does explain why he's famous, but it isn't sourced either. Minima c (talk) 04:48, 29 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails to meet notability guidlines for academics and creative people, so far as I can tell. I can only find that he is employed at the University of Kent, Canterbury and has translated a play from German to English. Movementarian (Talk) 13:04, 5 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: I can't find significant coverage for this director. Joe Chill (talk) 16:01, 5 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete As indicated, claims but no sources. For example, he is listed as "an American theater director," but nothing he has directed is listed, it is simply a general statement with no backing whatsoever. Nineteen Nightmares (talk) 19:23, 5 June 2010 (UTC)Nineteen Nightmares[reply]
