Unreferenced BLP which does not assert notability. A google search turns up little of value: he did apparently win a "best documentary award" at the Ouchy Film Festival in 2016 [1] but I think it would be a massive stretch to say this counts as "a well-known and significant award or honor", and he is mentioned by name here and there, but otherwise I can only find a promotional bio [2]. Not everyone who works in television is notable and I think this falls some way short of WP:BIO. PC78 (talk) 18:28, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
