Fails WP:GNG, Not enough reliable independent sources. Nothing greater than that of trivial mentions. Most of the details added about him especially personal details are unsourced, I don't know from where the author got such details. Onmyway22 talk 06:03, 2 August 2022 (UTC) reply

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Noting that the nominator was blocked for sockpuppetry, but not in violation of WP:CSD#G5.

  • Keep Prateek is a notable film director and producer. He can be seen on many notable news websites and he has directed many notable films. Passes WP:FILMMAKER. Social-Informers ( talk) 11:55, 10 August 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. On first glance, it seems that although his films may be notable, he is not. He has a large number of mentions in Indian media, but almost all of the coverage is trivial, and limited to naming him as the maker of a specific film. Fails WP:GNG but there is a chance he could pass WP:FILMMAKER according to the clause "The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews," but I don't think so, because I think this generally refers to a series, but there is nothing to link together his body of work to make it collectively well-known.

  • Keep. Article does include some coverage by reliable sources. Subject seems just notable enough to keep. Admittedly, I'm inclined to reject any AfD proposed by a confirmed sockpuppet. Doczilla @SUPERHEROLOGIST 19:44, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply
