Blake Whitney (S&amp;S character)

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

Non-notable fictional character from non-notable podcast. Corvus cornix talk  03:42, 24 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete. Is there no speedy deletion criteria for unremarkable fictional characters? Carom (talk) 03:46, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, no, and a speedy deletion tag on another one of the characters was removed just for that reason. Though db-web might have worked.   Corvus cornix  talk  03:54, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Hmmm, that seems like a bit of a gap, although I guess not a particularly important one. Carom (talk) 03:55, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd be opposed to making it a speedy deletion criteria. Yes, a good many fictional character articles turn out to be not notable, but a fair number turn out to be able to demostrate notability, and in the middle ground, WP:FICT recommends merging them to a collective article. If speedied, editors would not have the time to find the references to demonstrate notability. Five days is speedy enough. —Quasirandom (talk) 04:00, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Heh, I wasn't suggesting an amendment to the criteria - no need to oppose proposals that haven't even been made! Carom (talk) 04:02, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * No worries. Others have talked about ameding the criteria, though. —Quasirandom (talk) 21:30, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I consider this barred by the injunction, which I continue to interpret in a general sense We can look at the merits better in a month from now. DGG (talk) 04:47, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't. YMMV.  But it was my understanding that the injunction only refers to TV show characters.  And regardless, it doesn't apply to the AfD on the podcast, and it would be ludicrous if we deleted the podcast article and kept the character articles.
