Delete: stub article (which has never been rehabbed) clearly does not indicate sufficient notability for standalone article. Quis separabit? 20:02, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Response: Being an unimproved stub is more a reason to work toward improving an article than it is for deleting it for being unimproved. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 02:23, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or redirect to Babar: The Movie, his only significant film/directing credit. Clarityfiend (talk) 23:45, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for now more likely as I'm simply not seeing better future signs of better notability and improvement here despite my searches finding several passing mentions. SwisterTwister talk 06:23, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: A few statements above from Clarityfiend and SwisterTwister made me look in and do some work. And while a redirect somewhere could be suitable, this writer, director, artist directed three projects thought notable enough for Wikipedia... the movie The Wild Puffalumps in 1988, the film Babar: The Movie in 1989 and 65 episodes of the Beetlejuice television series in 1995. Added to the other verifiable works in his prolific career, this could have him be determined as meeting WP:CREATIVE even as a stub-needing-work. How important are artists to the animated films they create? Just sayin'. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 02:23, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Yes, but The Wild Puffalumps is a direct-to-video 22-minute cartoon, while Bunce is one of five co-directors in the sample of Beetlejuice episodes I checked. Clarityfiend (talk) 03:05, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Not enough to the resume to show they pass the notability criteria. Fails WP:GNG. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 15:21, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
