Bartlet (West Wing)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Article is about the last name of a fictional character. All of the information here is available in either the The West Wing article or the Josiah Bartlet article.  TN ‑  X   - Man  16:09, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete a stub that is never going to get better and for which all valid information already exists at West Wing, Josiah Bartlet, and other related character pages. Jasynnash2 (talk) 16:13, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * so if you guys can delete just cuz you can, then, ya know- cool. I don't know why the stub would be doomed "never" to "get better". are these types of fict stubs often neglected or orphaned? there is probly too much fict-cruft on 'paedia on too many different pages. I was just trying to improve on particular page and I needed to link out to some decenet content. could you advise me on how the first sentence @ abu el Banat could be improved? if that's tackled, we can prob delete this no prob. thx.

 * Delete per nom. - AdamBMorgan (talk) 16:15, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Hang On see also talk:Bartlet (West Wing) for some relevant info. St. Puid,  Head of Assisi 16:23, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * In my case, at least, the reason I voted for deletion is that this article already exists as Josiah Bartlet. Wikipedia doesn't need another article with the same subject.  This article could work as a redirect to the main character article, however (it is a reasonable search term). - AdamBMorgan (talk) 17:04, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * What readers will enter in the search box will be "Bartlet", taking them to Bartlet. It is very unlikely that they will be typing "Bartlet (West Wing)" into the search box. Uncle G (talk) 18:19, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. No indication that this has notability outside the TV series. The only Bartlet anyone knows or cares about is the presidential character or the first lady (though I don't remember if she used the same last name). I'm generally easy going about fictional character articles, tending to lead towards inclusionism, but even this one I'd say is more appropriate for a West Wing Wikia site than Wikipedia. 23skidoo (talk) 21:04, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Absurd to have an article like this--its not even a redirect or disam until there are more of them. We dont make a new article for every real or fictional characters last name. DGG (talk) 01:06, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Content already exists in other pages, and this is not a common search term. Karanacs (talk) 15:52, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
