This article existed before this negative media came to light; which suggests there is truth value to my claim here.  This individual is quite clearly notable.  See this, and other data easily available at the internet (with a little effort).  By deleting articles as a knee-jerk response to alleged criminal behavior; you debase the credibility of wikipedia itself as a reliable tool to procure reliable information.  https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/aacta-org/Uploads/All-Winners-by-Category-7th-AACTA-Awards-Presented-by-Foxtel.pdf 45.45.17.170 ( talk ) 01:35, 27 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] This is clearly not the case.  Just because someone is accused of a crime (mind you, he is not convicted) does not you can debase their credibility entirely.  There are many articles describing the notability of this individual; but they're being ignored simply because he was accused of committing a crime.  I see extreme editorial bias here.  This article needs to stay.  146.229.255.21 ( talk ) 19:15, 26 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : You are free to add information to the article that speaks to his notability beyond being accused of a crime.  That is in fact the point here: if there is nothing in the article except the fact that he's been arrested (not convicted), then the article should not stay due to violations of the biographies of living persons guidelines .  If the article is deleted it can always be recreated in line with Wikipedia's policies.  ... disco spinster talk 20:45, 26 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] You would consider doing a better job as editor; you're clearly bias.

From the source you've posted, we'll need a ton more sourcing than that.  A name in a list alone doesn't make him notable, but it could indicate notability.  Meaning if we have more, extensive sources, the article could potentially be kept.  Oaktree b ( talk ) 14:01, 27 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete : I think Itou might have enough notability to have his own article; however, the article itself does not prove notability as it stands, so it requires way more work done before I think it should be considered being added to mainspace.  There are two sentences here and one of them is about his criminal arrest, so it's just not ready.

Kouichirou Itou is obviously notable.  To ignore this fact would be to abstain from the use of all reason; undermining wikipedia itself as a reputable source of "facts".  An accusation, sans a conviction is not grounds for challenging this individual of (obvious) notability.  His works are certainly non-trivial.  They're not hard to find.  45.45.17.170 ( talk ) 01:15, 27 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Him having worked on various notable projects does not inherently make him notable.  If someone had written an article on George Washington and included 3 lines of text, unless there was someone out there who saw this and began adding lines of citations and statements regarding his life and whatnot, then the article would by all means lack "notability" per the guidelines.  You're arguing for a completely different thing than anyone else here is.  If you're willing to sit here and argue with everyone, perhaps it would be wiser for you to verify Itou's notability yourself by adding content to the article.  Sarcataclysmal ( talk ) 08:33, 27 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Quite obviously incorrect, a projection crafted with extreme editorial bias given the nature of the criminal charges (of an unconvicted person).  With a little effort one can find articles and data suggesting Kouichirou Itou's notability.  See here; for example.  Editorial standards at Wikipedia should be higher.  https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/aacta-org/Uploads/All-Winners-by-Category-7th-AACTA-Awards-Presented-by-Foxtel.pdf 45.45.17.170 ( talk ) 01:39, 27 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Please provide other "articles" then to support your statement, this alone isn't enough.  Oaktree b ( talk ) 14:05, 27 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete not ready for mainspace.  The IP, in addition to wildly brandishing a random PDF that contains no indication of notability, is also canvassing for votes on off-wiki sites.  They would do better to stop their tantrum and try to find sources that meet the criteria outlined at WP:GNG .  ~~ AirshipJungleman29 ( talk ) 03:52, 27 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] They already did; you just elected to ignore them.  Just because you dislike Kouichirou Itou for simply being accused of a crime shouldn't give you the right to introduce extreme editorial bias.  People like you debase the credibility of wikipedia itself.  AACTA award nominations are certainly nontrivial.  He's also been interviewed and was responsible for creating work alongside Makoto Shinkai here https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/feature/2017-04-28/interview-comix-wave-koichiro-ito/.115324  But again; you choose to ignore this.  Makoto Shinkai has a page; but it hasn't been marked for deletion.  These people are publicly listed at the same, award winning, notable projects like Your Name .  At least this page will live on as a log indicating the questionable nature of Wikipedia itself.  https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/aacta-org/Uploads/All-Winners-by-Category-7th-AACTA-Awards-Presented-by-Foxtel.pdf 146.229.255.21 ( talk ) 01:30, 3 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] IP bludgeoning ~~ AirshipJungleman29 ( talk ) 18:33, 27 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] It's not a tantrum; I'm just acquainting fans of revisionist history; much like yourself about the actual facts.

The organisation annually recognises and rewards achievement in Australian film and television with an awards ceremony.  45.45.17.170 ( talk ) 12:19, 27 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Securing a nomination for the AACTA Award for Best Asian Film, presented by PR Asia, is a significant achievement that goes beyond the immediate acknowledgment by the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts.  This nomination serves as a powerful testament to the film's excellence and artistry, recognized by industry professionals and experts who play pivotal roles in shaping the trajectory of cinematic recognition.  The AACTA Awards, as a distinguished institution within the film industry, carry a weight of authority and discernment.  The fact that a film is nominated for this particular accolade indicates that it has been identified among the outstanding works in Asian cinema.  This recognition extends beyond local or regional acclaim, projecting the film onto an international stage where its merit is acknowledged and celebrated.  The nomination process itself reflects the stringent and high-quality standards associated with the AACTA Awards.  Being nominated implies that the film has not only met but has surpassed expectations, standing out in a competitive landscape of cinematic creations.  This distinction adds a layer of credibility to the film's craftsmanship and artistic vision.  Beyond the film itself, a nomination for such a prestigious award has a ripple effect on the individuals involved in its creation – from filmmakers to actors and various contributors.  It offers them more than just a certificate; it opens doors to increased visibility and enhanced opportunities within the global film industry.  The acknowledgment by the AACTA Awards serves as a professional validation, paving the way for future projects and collaborations.  In conclusion, a nomination for the AACTA Award for Best Asian Film presented by PR Asia is not merely an accolade; it is a recognition that reverberates through the broader cinematic landscape, positioning the film and its creators as notable contributors to the evolving tapestry of international cinema.  45.45.17.170 ( talk ) 12:22, 27 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Yeah, we don't actually take what events say about themselves as true.

This nomination signifies that the film has been identified as one of the outstanding Asian films by industry professionals and experts.  Being nominated for such an award suggests notability for several reasons.  Firstly, it indicates a level of excellence in filmmaking that has captured the attention and appreciation of a respected academy.  This recognition goes beyond local acclaim, reaching an international platform and contributing to the film's prestige.  Secondly, the AACTA Awards are known for their discerning and high-quality standards, and being nominated attests to the film's ability to stand out in a competitive field.  This acknowledgment can open doors for the filmmakers, actors, and other contributors, providing them with increased visibility and opportunities within the global film industry.
