This character does not establish notability independent of its series. Without coverage in reliable third party sources, it is just made up of unnecessary plot summary and original research. TTN (talk) 22:41, 22 September 2008 (UTC) 
 * Merge- Non-notable on its own, can be merged, though. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 07:04, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep - and improve. Hope you speak Porteguese, though. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 14:14, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge or Delete. The character isn't even mentioned in the series article, but I don't know whether that's a sign that he is not notable or that the article is merely incomplete. But the character article shouldn't exist if all it does is plot retelling. – sgeureka t•c 18:39, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge or just redirect There may be sources on the subject in portuguese. I don't think that we should wait around with an article that is entirely unsourced until both an editor who speaks portuguese shows up and those sources become available. Protonk (talk) 02:43, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Merge somewhere. I 'm not sure there's a good place at the moment, but judging from the main article the series is sufficiently notable culturally that there ought to be a page constructed for these characters. I agree with Protonk that we shouldn't leave these pages as they are in the hope of eventual sourcing, but that's no reason to remove the information entirely. Of the other arguments, "Pure trash" is pure IDONTLIKEIT, while the nomination is totally unspecific about what is wrong and how to fix it, being just the same a the  nom for all sorts of other situations and problems.  DGG (talk) 05:03, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep or merge per everyone, notable unoriginal research verified in reliable sources. Needs to exist in some capacity.  Also per boilerplate nomination “rationales” across multiple AfDs.--63.3.1.2 (talk) 14:43, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Here is my consensus.  Also, user 63.3.1.2 is probably a sock of User:Arbiteroftruth. Bilodeauzx (talk) 05:22, 29 September 2008 (UTC)


 *  Delete as non-notable (or merge). Mr. Absurd (talk) 01:06, 30 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep as current merge candidate is a table. The material in the article isn't plot summary, nor is it original research. It seems to be talking about an actor who died and how the ending of his character was portrayed. I do not speak portuguese, but will ask around to see if any portugues speakers can determine notability. Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 06:16, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
 * PS: I have listed a note at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Portugal in case any portuguese speakers can help with sourcing etc. Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 06:22, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
