Unable to find any coverage independent of the subject. Unable to figure out what the BAMA award is that he is reported to have won nevermind verify that he won it. Based on the subject's age, 22, and the age of the article, 2, I wouldn't be suprised if it was a student award he won. Does not meet WP:GNG or WP:CREATIVE. —J04n(talk page) 13:19, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - I can't seem to find anything to verify this article and this BLP. Fails WP:RS and WP:N. - Pmedema (talk) 20:59, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - subject fails both WP:GNG and the contents of this BLP are completely unverifiable. I've searched under a variety of name combinations. The BAMA award probably refers to an "award" from the rather grandly named "Bristol Academy of Media Arts" part of South Gloucestershire and Stroud College, a vocational school for 14-19 year olds.

- Delete as unverifiable. -- Whpq (talk) 17:52, 3 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I did a LexisNexis search of this person and found nothing except a few references to other people with the same name. A search for his name and "film" produced no results. I also couldn't find anything on the BAMA awards except the "British Aerosol Manufacturers' Association" and "Birmingham Area Music Awards", neither of which apply here of course. Definitely seems to fail WP:V to me, and I wouldn't be surprised if this were a WP:HOAX altogether. — Hunter Kahn 19:09, 3 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. If the only claim to notability doesn't appear in reliable sources (or any kind of source for this matter), it's not notable. Chris Neville-Smith (talk) 11:02, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: A thorough search turns up absolutely nothing. --Dylan620 (t • c • r) 20:00, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete In its use in the article, BAMA Award is an acronym for "Birmingham Area Music Award", found mentioned in some articles,[1][2] but of which I can find no further information on just who the BAMA group is. Lack of career, lack of sources, lack of actual sourcability, all indicate that at best, this one is TOO SOON. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 01:09, 5 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
