Comment: There is a redirect from Benjamin Howard (filmmaker) to Riley (film). If this draft is to be accepted, the redirect will need to be tagged as {{db-afc-move}} and deleted as a blocking redirect. There is already an entry in Benjamin Howard (disambiguation), which links to the redirect. Robert McClenon (talk) 21:05, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
