Ann Douglas (The Bold and the Beautiful)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

A random character from a random soap opera. Creator has been blocked indefinitely for copyright violations; while I don't immediately see this as being copied from somewhere, it wouldn't surprise me if it is. But even if it's not, it certainly fails WP:GNG. We have lists of character articles for a reason. Qwyrxian (talk) 09:52, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. Indeed, I noticed the article earlier today and was wondering whether I should bring it here or PROD it. There were no attempts to demonstrate notability whatsoever, and the bulk of the article is just the unsourced story, not a single source.--Ymblanter (talk) 10:02, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete The role isn't primary, and just because it is portrayed by Betty White, the character does not inherit her notability so it falls under WP:NN & WP:NOTINHERITED for it's contribution. The piece appears to be an insider description of events, and therefore is WP:COI & WP:SELFPUBLISH. Also, there is no proper sourcing via WP:SOURCES, yadda, yadda Яεñ99 (talk) 10:22, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Weak Redirect to List of The Young and the Restless characters. Seems like the character stayed around the series for three years. I don't watch this TV show at all so I'm not sure if her character played a relevant role in the plot and how many episodes she appeared on. Perhaps adding her character to the list would help? Not completely sure. Bleubeatle (talk) 22:18, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment I thought she was The Bold and the Beautiful? However, the redirect seems justifiable Яεñ99 (talk) 11:56, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
 * As to her begin on the list, it would be up to editors there to decide if she meets whatever criteria they have. However, a redirect is unecessary, because no one is going to type "Ann Douglas (The Bold and the Beautiful)" into the search box. Qwyrxian (talk) 13:10, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
 * No, but they might type 'Ann Douglas', in which case the full title will come up. - The Bushranger One ping only 04:58, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
