This article idea about a movie producer with no significant coverage in independent reliable sources to establish notability. All of the sources in the article serve to verify statements in the article but none of them represent significant coverage and I am unable to find any either.

- Delete- I couldn't find anything substantial to backup WP:GNG claims. May fail at WP:FILMMAKER. Hitro talk 10:12, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. Oh God, not another article about a producer who claims to have helped develop a film and put together the financing of some B movie. We almost always delete articles about producers because they are so run of the mill. Bearian (talk) 02:03, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- Preserve- The article has more references than many other articles of "notable content" on Wikipedia, and the consensus on Mr. Whitney's contributions to the films he has produced is unwavering; the overall result being films that have generated hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, unusual in the horror film market.

- It's not the quantity of references; it's the quality. --Whpq (talk) 11:29, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
- Preserve- Steve Whitney is a notable producer because for more than a decade – and still going strong – he has played a key in the creation of several notable films and has overseen the creative and business sides of high-grossing movies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:989:4200:5F8:102B:3D18:2785:37BA (talk) 01:51, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
