 * Comment This is a character in a book series and a film. The both the series and film do appear to be notable; both having coverage in reliable independent sources. Also this character doesn't appear to be minor person in the film; in the film article she's listed a 'main character' and the actress was nominated for an award for her performance. If she was not notable then this article would redirect to List of characters in the Camp Half-Blood series. I don't think the nominator has given a valid reason for deletion.

 * Keep. She is the secondary main character, similar to Hermione in Harry Potter. That is not minor. Anyways, for real deletion/keep reasons, the character has coverage in third party reliable sources, and meets guidelines. Blake (Talk·Edits) 18:55, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:GNG sources need to have substantial coverage of the topic, not a related topic. Stuartyeates (talk) 02:15, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep or merge to an appropriate character list. Subject is clearly a major character in a notable series. Edward321 (talk) 00:15, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete (or merge per Edwards321 as compromise). Sources talk tangentially around the character. A few quotes with nothing of substance to say about her significance. Not enough to WP:verify notability and meet the general notability guideline. Shooterwalker (talk) 01:44, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep WP:GNP is met on the basis of a number of significant secondary verifiable sources. See Gnews --Ryan.germany (talk) 13:45, 22 September 2011 (UTC) Archive
 * Delete or Merge - Does not pass WP:GNG. The link provided by Ryan.germany shows many news articles which mention the character, but these are only trivial mentions with no significant coverage. Because there are no notability guidelines for fictional characters save for GNG, I cannot support keeping this article. However, I would like to see a guideline written up at some point and restore/delete this article based on what it says.  Eagles   24/7  (C)  21:40, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge into List of characters in the Camp Half-Blood series. Notable within the series, perhaps, but none of the sources found so far really appears to meet the requirement of significant coverage. However, some of the content is worth keeping, so a merge would make sense. Alzarian16 (talk) 21:56, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment - How do sources 2, 3, 14, 15, and 16 not satisfy notability purposes? Blake (Talk·Edits) 22:19, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Reference 2: Can't see it. Reference 3: Dead link. Reference 14: Don't have access to that review. Reference 15: Another dead link. Reference 16: Trivial mention of the character, more about the actress who plays her.  Eagles   24/7  (C)  22:23, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
