Does not meet WP:FILMMAKER. Main authors User:Devansh illuminati, User:Rudransh1 are SPAs, likely in a conflict of interest. bender235 (talk) 07:09, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep WP:SPA and WP:COI? Maybe. Does not meet WP:FILMMAKER? The article published by The Indian Express (it is listed in our article) says: "Rudransh’s foremost film, Birds Through My Window, was also screened at the Vatavaran Environment and Wildlife Film Festival, where he procured the Golden Tree award, customarily conferred to the best child filmmaker." I consider that a significant coverage, and the information is verifiable also by the festival's official website. In my opinion this young filmmaker meets our notability criteria. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 08:50, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Strong Keep Easily passes WP:GNG, clearly a notable filmmaker, in fact a "child prodigy" famous across India. The article in fact includes 8 good solid reliable citations, no problem with Verifiability at all. Mathur has been covered in good newspapers; his films have been widely screened and admired (and not just because he was a child when he made them). * Ah, there's a CoI/SPA: well, that is a pity, but it does not mean the subject is not notable. More likely a sign of youthful inexperience; and Dont_Bite_The_Newbies, remember: "It is very unlikely for a newcomer to be completely familiar with all of the policies, guidelines, and community standards of Wikipedia when they start editing." Wikipedia:NEWBIES Everybody, even a child prodigy, has to start somewhere. No, Mathur is a notable filmmaker and the article should stay. Chiswick Chap (talk) 13:33, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
