- Keep obviously not an A7 and any promo can be edited out. Has created a number of notable works and has some of his films in the permanent collections of notable museums such as the MOMA and therefore passes WP:NCREATIVE as well as WP:NARTIST with plenty of reliable sources coverage already in the article, thanks Atlantic306 ( talk) 23:24, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Weak Keep. Definately not an A7 or even G11. Probably more of a technical pass of WP:NCREATIVE (it is easier for a copy of a film to be held, although it does imply that the notable museums does want it); doesn't screen that well on a general GNG. A niche artist, but a pass on WP policy none the less. Britishfinance ( talk) 19:25, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
- Keep At least two of his films (Chronicle of Corpses and Story of the Eye) have been reviewed in the New York Times and similarly respected publications, and this Philadelphia Weekly interview cited in the article shows the existence of some coverage focused on the director himself, rather than one of his films. That said, the article needs a lot of work to meet quality standards. Very few independent/non-primary sources currently cited, lots of extraneous (non-verifiable) detail, and some style issues (e.g. proliferation of red links).
