Unreferenced forever. Clearly, he made some videoclips, but I failed to find any discussions of this person -M.Altenmann >t 17:38, 24 December 2014 (UTC)

• KEEP per WP:ANYBIO - multiple award winner. Have begun adding refs. Artw (talk) 22:48, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
• I am not sure the he is award winner. For example, a ref you added says: Prodigy nabbed the Viewer's Choice Award for "Breathe", not a mum about Stern. Neither about sound mixer or whoever other dozen of technicians. Please provide sources which speak specifically about Stern's relevance to this awards. Specifically, where is description of his contribution to Breathe? How pointing camera at Prodigy made him co-glorious? I seriously doubt he direct them how to sing and where to dance. If you really want this article about him, please add references which speak about him, not which simply mention his name. -M.Altenmann >t 04:10, 25 December 2014 (UTC)
• I think you have WP:ANYBIO mixed up with WP:GNG (which TBH he'd probably make as well with the sources available.) Artw (talk) 06:48, 25 December 2014 (UTC)
• Weak keep Has won awards, and gets mentioned in music video awards articles. No articles specifically about him, the person, but I suspect that's a factor of the business he is in, since rock videos are all about the performers, not the video-makers. LaMona (talk) 02:05, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

::Oh, I should add that it would be only honest to remove links to articles that do not mention him, and there are quite a few here. Any articles that talk only about the videos should link to an article for the video (if there is one) or the artist. LaMona (talk) 02:07, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

• Keep. Notability has been established via the sources in the article. --Michig (talk) 09:04, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
• Keep By the skin of the teeth. Very few of the sources actually mention the man or speak to his notability in even a passing manner, but a couple do and these mentions, combined with the profile of the work, make an argument for a very weak keep, with the hope that the references can be fleshed out in the future. That said, LaMona has the right of matters with regard to the present sources; those which do not mention the subject nor otherwise support claims within the article need to be removed.
