The latest attempt to use Wikipedia to promote Hodges. Once again it's sourced to passing mentions, listings and a non mention plus imdb, a press release and a marketplace. The one exception is the local interest piece on a locally made film. The only thing changed since last deletion is the release of Sand Castles (at afd) and some awards for that film, but none of theose awards are major awards. A look at sourcing at time of nomination.

1 listing only

2 marketplace

3 short piece with trivial coverage of Hodges

4 article title changed to deceive. passing mention only. Does not verify claim made (only supporting, not starred)

5 does not verify claim made, no mention of Hodges or Mary’s Buttons

6 imdb

7 local interest piece

8 listing only, does not verify claim of premier

9 press release

10 listing only, does not verify claim of award

11 mention only, does not verify claim of award

Hodges is still not notable. He lacks significant roles in multiple notable productions, only one significant role in a bluelinked film and that's also up at afd. He lacks coverage in multiple independent reliable sources WP:GNG. duffbeerforme (talk) 03:15, 16 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• This is a repost from "an Executive of Oceanus Pictures which owns Sand Castles" [1] using another sockpuppet (SPI). Part of their promotional campaign [2] " That is part of a marketing game plan. It's on IMDb, Wiki, we have a website, all we want for now." Stop rewarding bad faithed editing. Delete Spam. duffbeerforme (talk) 16:11, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• If we ignore WP:ADHOM arguments or poor claims and admitted transparencies of two years ago, we may look instead to the topic itself to determine if actor/filmmaker Jordon Hodges OR his works have enough coverage to meet WP:CREATIVE, WP:GNG and WP:BIO... or not. If the article had been created by an experienced editor, would we gauge it more harshly or less? Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 21:09, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per coverage by multiple independent sources such as this [3]. Sand Castles is a notable mainstream independent film that afd's consensus is quite clear. Valoem ^{talk contrib} 13:49, 19 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• An indiscriminate local interest puff piece that lacks any depth of coverage about Hodges. I disagree with your analysis of the Sand Castles afd. duffbeerforme (talk) 03:04, 20 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep I did manage to find quite a bit of independent sources for multiple films, most articles refer to the movie Sand Castles. [4] [5] [6][7][8][9] As stated above, Sand Castles is a notable mainstream indie film; Hodges is the lead actor, screenwriter and producer of Sand Castles.
