Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ray Jay (director)
While I wouldn't want to delete an article about a major filmmaker from Sri Lanka just because his films were not known in the United States, this article has not clearly established that this person is a major filmmaker. It is difficult for a filmmaker from ''any'' country to attain notability just by making short films, and apparently the only feature that Ray Jay has completed so far, ''Chase'', is sourced only to a 30-second trailer on the IMDb web site. There is no indication that ''Chase'' has been theatrically released in Sri Lanka or elsewhere. As Joe Decker indicates above, most of the sources that have been provided so far are primary sources (his own companies' web sites, Facebook, YouTube, etc.) which are not independent sources to establish his notability. If Ray Jay is going to receive mainstream newspaper and television coverage in the future, that means that an article about him can be re-created in the future. |Consensus can change; the more Ray Jay accomplishes as a filmmaker and the more he gets media coverage, the more likely it is that a Wikipedia article about him can be accepted
